About

I'm a front end developer working on React/Next.js based in Portsmouth and currently open to opportunities, both full-time and freelance. You can drop me a message anytime using my contact details.

I've been using Linux and coding recreationally for about 10 years, and currently running Fedora. In terms of languages and technologies, I have used React and Next.js for 3 years, in addition to Python and PHP where necessary during my career.

When it comes to tools, I use Notion for pretty much everything, and Jira for work. I code pretty much exclusively in JetBrains IDEs with glorious Vim motions, with Neovim as a text editor when touching a file or two.

My PGP key can be found in /pgp.txt

Currently learning Go, and trying out Zed.

Projects

I created a patch for two popular mods in Starbound which you can find in my GitHub.

There's also pwc.jamesl.net, a small tool which counts the number of words in a Spotify playlist. Source code here.

Also, planning on creating my own CMS for my personal blog (and maybe a dev blog).
