I was directly responsible for rewriting the website to use MySQL/PHP (LAMP) instead of using the existing Windows Server/ASPX. This resulted in a significant speedup in page load time as well as increased development turnaround speed. CSS3 and HTML5 were used here when appropriate. This website has a full CMS on the backend.

My tasks for Greens included a rewrite of the ASP based website into PHP/MySQL(LAMP) using Interspire as a basis. Extensive customisation of the backend was required to fit into the existing workflow including integration with thermal printers and Interlink dispatch. Maintaining PCI compliance was part of my remit here as well.The layout was changed regularly with my working from PSDs supplied by the graphic artists. HTML bulk emails were also implemented, again from the artists original PSD's. I was in charge of designing and implementing new backend facilities for improving the workflow within Greens, this included custom reports and so on.

I was responsible for updating FarangFriendly to use better layout and better user experience in ASPX. Extensive rewriting of the backend to be more responsive was also a priority including javascript based reporting and editing facilities.In addition to this I was tasked to write several vertical apps(iPhone and Android) for both data entry (used by teams of mobile data entry people) and for end user use. For both cases speed and ease of use were paramount.

This was an implementation of a novel system aimed at the property sales and property rental markets. This used C# on the desktop of each user, each talking to a central MySQL based server.

This project was the implementation of a novel and experimental accounting system. Initially implemented in C++ it moved to being reimplemented in MFC / C++. It also featured a full lua based scripting system for extension purposes.
