Get in touch if you'd like help with:

• Headless CMS and/or static site generators

I've just wrapped up a contract at Stellenbosch University, working with the CREST team on their SASTI analytics platform. (Reporting on tertiary education performance in South Africa). SASTI is written in Python/Django. I've been responsible for upgrading the UI aspects using:

• a bespoke Pattern Library
• Jinja2
• HTML5, Modern CSS, and SVG
• Progressive-enhancement with Web Components

In my personal time, I'm working on a Django conversion of Birds of Zevenwacht.
The site was previously created with Eleventy. I'm using this both as a learning exercise, and to add interactive features for the site. (Allowing users to upload their own Photos/Sightings, etc)

I love working on and publishing little parcels of progressive-enhancement. Some of my previous components include:

• <wc-chart> - a Chart.js Web Component wrapper
  Render simple charts with just a few lines of HTML
• <multi-options> - a form field for folksonomy
  Progressively enhance a series of form fields to create a tag/category selection form control
• <tab-group>
  Progressively-enhance a table of contents and their relevant sections into an accessible tab group
• <prog-lightbox>
  Turn an anchor (that points to a larger image), into a modal lightbox
