PROJECTS


  • Brown Beagle Software – Carrental
We took over the development of Carrental from another developer. The site compares the price of car rentals between 6 different car rental companies including Avis, Budget, Hertz, Thrifty, Europcar and Redspot. The main complaint with the previous developer was that the performance of the site was too slow and small jobs took too long. After taking over 2 years ago, the page load speed of the site dropped from 1 minute per search to less then 20 seconds. I also found major holes in the software that the client believed was complete when in fact it wasn't, which I took upon myself to fix. Technologies include Linux, MVC, Git, MySQL, SMS Reminder Service, Photoshop, Fireworks, Mac, Rails 2, JQuery, ERB, SASS, Google Maps, Unit Tests, Integration Tests and web browser debuggers.


  • Brown Beagle Software – Carrental CMS
This project was with the same client as above except that the work was concentrated on a CMS that managed the content on the site. In the background, the pages are managed by a CMS called Canvas 2.0. It was my job to change the CMS so that it could remember old urls and redirect users to the correct updated url. I also had to automate the construction of location pages which generated content based on where a car depot is located, which helped with SEO (Search Engine Optimisation). Technologies include Linux, MVC, Git, Rails 2, Canvas 2.0, JQuery, ERB, SASS, Unit Tests, Integration Tests and web browser debuggers.


  • Brown Beagle Software – FlyingSolo
We took over the development of FlyingSolo from the same developer that developed Carrental. FlyingSolo is a site that helps small businesses promote their services. My main role was to update content and to add a new service plan for their customers. This site also uses the CMS Canvas 2.0 and I had to use it to update various pages across the site. Technologies include Linux, MVC, Git, Rails 2, MySQL, Canvas 2.0, JQuery, ERB, SASS, Unit Tests, Integration Tests and web browser debuggers.

  • Brown Beagle Software – Nospuds
I worked on a site called Nospuds which allows people to find activities around their local area. My main role initially was to slice up the images and work on the css, but later I worked on the wizard which is used to promote a person's activity. It uses your IP address to find your location and displays activities closest to you.
