My Services
Front-end

Front-end web development and web design. I design a website from scratch, through the use of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript/TypeScript. This can extend with divers technologie platforms for the required setup. Assignments can range from set up wordpress environments, creating static web apps with jekyll, building static websites or building dynamic websites with divers platforms like Angular, React, .NET Blazor

Mobile Application

A mobile application, most commonly referred to as an app, is a type of application software designed to run on a mobile. I can provision app development using technologies like react-native or .NET MAUI.

Investigation

Investigation, examination, inquiry, research your idea for digitalisation. This ranges from seeing if your idea is a plausible active effort, what the cost and infrastructure and development requirements are for those ideas, working out POC's (proof of concept) of those ideas or even evaluate existing software for maturity and extensibility

Programming

I mainly focus on .NET technologies for a vast range of solutions. Here I can support you with the programming of new features on existing code bases, refactoring or re-writes of existing code bases, migrations to latest LTS. Help and start with greenfield projects. If I can't help you directly, my vast network surely can.

Awesome Supports

Awesome Support is the most versatile and feature-rich. I try to help you out with your digitalisation problems. Ranging from aiding with bugs, migrations to new versions, implementing connectors for 3rd party software to reviews for future readiness.

Web Development

I can help you with the development of web-sites, web-applications or APIs with a simple backbone or even big architectures like f.e. micro-service architecture.
