After spending 7 months building a startup with my friend that I subsequently chose to end development of, I'm looking for some work to make some extra money and keep my mind working.
Since moving on from my startup I've found myself under-inspired, under-challenged, and feeling lazy with no commitments or projects to work on.
I'm mostly a front-end dev, but taught myself Rails and built out the backend of the startup I was working on. I hosted it on Heroku with a PostgreSQL database. It wasn't really necessary, but for our blog I chose to use a Rails CMS, and hosted it on Digital Ocean with Nginx and Unicorn managing requests.
Below are some examples of my work.
My personal blog, which is responsive -- it takes inspiration from other blogging platforms but I wrote all the code from scratch. http://blog.tommaxwell.me
My personal site, which is also responsive and written from scratch: http://tommaxwell.me
I also have some projects on my Github profile that I worked on. Chakra is the Rails app that I wrote all myself. http://github.com/tommaxwell
I have a solid understanding of OO JavaScript, CSS3, responsive design, Rails, and more. Preferably the projects I'm looking for are front-end oriented.
You can also find me around the web: http://twitter.com/tommaxwelll http://medium.com/@tommaxwelll
If anyone has any small projects -- maybe even some small work here and there that you need done -- I'd love to talk to you.
