Projects

I'm kind of embarrassed about most of my past projects. Here are some that are still alive and my current work.

Also take a look at my Github account for some other experiments and open source work github.com/runningdeveloper

Kastelo

Kastelo is a fintech company developing a number of different financial services. I work full time as part of the development team.

Have a look at their website: www.kastelo.co.za

I am involved in frontend React and backend Python work. I enjoy working with the team and learning new things everyday.

Cedar Pumps Agent Portal
I started working with Cedar Solar to help move their pump sizing system from some excel sheets to a web platform for their seller agents.

This project has since moved on to offer more features and management for the sellers of the Cedar Solar products. I do ongoing maintenance and adding of new features to this website.

Stack:
- Firebase auth and Firestore for auth and the database
- PWA React frontend (Gatsbyjs, I really need to move this to Nextjs)
- Material UI
- Headless Shopify for buying products (changed to internal shop)

Pump in a Box
This is a stripped down version of a pump sizing tool used for Cedar Solar. Used to make it easier for people to get the correct solar pump when visiting a store.

There are 2 websites for SA and Namibia with slightly different pumps and requirements. So I do some changes depending on the environment (SA or Namibia) when building the site with CI.

I used Grommet at the time because it looked “funky”. Now on Nextjs with Material UI.

Stack:
- Hosted on Netlify
- Nextjs frontend
- Material UI components
