Solutions help customers organize, plan, run, and promote projects & missions as well as marketing campaigns via mobile applications, and cross domain web tools that are injectable into the client’s site via a very simple api, and social media integration.My main priority was to design our front-end user interfaces and apis that allowed organizations to inject UI workflows within any consuming system, such as a simple blog like wordpress or something like Sharepoint, using json-p/cors cross domain.The system included merchant account, PCI compliance and integration with the client’s old giving & contact management data, as well as analytics, marketing campaign management, reporting tools, and more.The cross-domain SDK I developed, and was awarded a patent on, are minimal javascript modules built for a minimal footprint and without polluting the global javascript namespace with extra entities or using iframes by using json-p and cors. The UI by design was built to be extremely minimal and consume the parent website's css for a low impact. We built a management interface to allow easy configuration, code copy/paste, and theme management if they wanted some customization.I also designed and built the administration portal, most of the early branding for the company, was the 3rd employee and had a large influence on the direction of the product due to my r&d in javascript cross domain abilities.Skills used: Photoshop/Illustrator, CSS (Less), HTML, mvc, C#, JavaScript, CoffeeScript & TypeScript, cross-domain json-p/cors, 3rd party apis (twitter, facebook, etc), JavaScript unit testing, Social APIS, Hybrid Mobile Application
