Everything Is Terrible!

I took EIT’s blog of found VHS footage and turned it into a mobile-friendly and infinitely-scrolling stream of their videos, allowing users to dive into the huge trove of past material. jQuery coupled with Google & Blogger JSON APIs allows content to be constantly updated, without having to load hundreds of YouTube embeds in a single page. Design help from Dimitri Simakis.

OffMLS

I led development for this mobile-centric startup, from the Python/Django/PostgreSQL backend to the Cordova/AngularJS/Ionic framework of their iOS & Android apps. Real estate professionals can get push notifications of new properties based on complex search criteria, or post listings of their own direct from their device. RESTful JSON APIs coupled with a clear and simple design language provide for a consistent experience across mobile and desktop. Design help from Paperplane Creative.
