Below is a brief list of some of the web development work I have been involved in. It is meant as a way for potential clients to see some of my previous work. On some of these projects, I was not the only person involved. In all of these projects (unless otherwise stated) I had a role of PHP development.
- Web developers client manager
This was developed to manage clients, their websites, and their access details. Along with this I built in extra features such as a full range of DNS lookups and monitoring. Server hardware details and service monitoring. - Rhema Broadcasting Group
I have been contracted to move their current sites into Joomla. At this stage, all the sites are to keep the same look-and-feel. The first one to be completed is the Life FM website www.lifefm.co.nz. - Ask Chris (now called InFocus Counselling) – Online counselling
This is a web application that we (the client and myself) designed and built in 2005. Since then, there have been various changes and updates. It is a complex app designed to protect the privacy of the clients and provide a safe place to meet with a counsellor. They are currently in the process of bringing the service worldwide through the organisation Focus on the Family. - Aqualine swim – eCommerce
This is an osCommerce based website with a wholesale section that has been custom coded. Somebody else made the design in Photoshop and I took that and built the site. You cannot access the wholesale (Trade Accounts) section, but it involves an online version of a paper-based order form that is run from a database. Wholesale customers place their orders through this system. - Sweets direct – online order form
This is by no means a pretty website. I was contracted to build a simple online ordering system. They have an inhouse person that manages (and designed) the website. The link above goes directly to the order page. I also built a corresponding back-end so the staff and can add new products and update current ones. I also built in the functionality to add photos per product (which the customer intends to use with one of their other sites). - Frondiz CMS
Custom coded CMS system. This seems to be something that most web developers do at some stage. I designed and built this CMS with the idea that community organisations (eg, churches, youth groups) could have a cheap and simple way of getting a site online with the features they are likely to use. It is a hosted solution and clients only need to sign up and their site is ready and waiting instantly. They can choose from a range of templates or create their own. They can choose from a range of addons at different prices. There are a whole lot more features. Development of this system has taken a back-seat with other more interesting work, however, I have a number of clients who have been loyal to the stable system for about 3 years since it was created. - Talent agency
For the first few months of this year I was working on a massive web application for a talent agency. I can not provide the name because of contractural reasons. This system involved a large amount of Ajax work, location-based lookups, multi-lingual, and so much more. - Film and Video Labelling Body of NZ – film rating website
This is a website with hundreds of thousands of media titles to search through. I built a web-service to sync their in-house database to the website. So the website is constantly updated with the latest records. This system involves a lot of caching to speed up repeated access.
