Hi! 👋

I'm Scott, a full stack developer that specialises in Javascript and Typescript.

My path through technology

This is a timeline of the main technologies I've used over the years. Those marked as 'commercial' were used in both commercial and non-commercial projects, while those marked as non-commercial were only used in personal/non-commercial projects.

• Delphi (2006 - 2010, non-commercial)
• Delphi Firemonkey (2010 - 2013, non-commercial)
• JQuery (2014 - 2016, commercial)
• Node, Express (2014 - Present, commercial)
• Socket.io (2014 - 2018, commercial)
• AngularJS (v1) (2016 - 2017, non-commercial)
• Angular (v2 - v6) (2017 - 2018, non-commercial)
• Typescript, React, MobX, React Native, Expo (2018 - Present, commercial)
• C# (2019 - 2020, commercial)
• Apollo Server + Client (2019 - Present, commercial)
• Supabase (2021 - Present, commercial)
• Hasura (2022 - Present, non-commercial)

Summary

• I created Quicache (pronounced Key-cache, or Kwi-cache [as in Quick-cache] -- either is fine), a memory-based JS key-value data cache
• I created JS-ThemeGen, a Javascript library for quickly generating colour shades
• I created TheTransportLab, a GraphQL API for retrieving rail, TfL tube, and bus transit data in the UK, and a user-facing mobile app
• I created TSOpenLDB, a library for interacting with the UK National Rail Open LDB staff API
• I created the Terraform Supabase template repo, making it super-easy to get Supabase running locally
• I'm an avid fan and contributor to Supabase, and help the community in their Discord server
• I've worked on a large number of commercial React and React Native projects for clients across the world
• I've created several thousand proof of concept projects over the years, and less than 5% of them ever get built out to real projects

Most people know me as a coder, but I've also got 20 years experience with non-code related IT stuff. Yes, I can probably fix your computer.

Awesome tools I use

• Supabase - An open-source alternative to Firebase
• Expo - A framework for developing, building and deploying React Native applications
• Moti - A React Native library for building animated components (Based on Reanimated 2)
• Portainer - A docker container for helping to manage your docker containers

So many repos!

Many of my repos are forks of useful projects. I don't use all of them, but I like to keep a copy of projects that I think might be worth looking into in future.
