Since 2015 this static site has been built from Markdown files using a custom Javascript and Gulp build process - described in the Site Refresh post. I have often wanted to move it over onto a "normal" static site generator tool, such as Hugo, but was put off by the migration needed to change templates again, and make my layout and CSS work in a new theme system.

Then in the New Year down-time I found Zola.

Took up a full-time role at Suitebox (http://www.suitebox.com/) as a Senior Developer.

In just under a year with Odin Solutions(http://www.odinsol.com/) we worked on two large client-facing projects and an internal product. We worked closely with the New Zealand team to standardise practices in automated testing, Jenkins CI deployments, and code delivery.

We worked with Suitebox (http://www.suitebox.com/) on their unique video conferencing solution leading up to the initial product launch.

The focus was on fixing issues as they were identified, and automating the Angular build process as well as the Jenkins CI deployment process.

After a very long time, and much prompting from Google about the upcoming Mobilegeddon, we have redesigned our site to be less cluttered and mobile responsive.

Yellow Pages has had a visual refresh, and we have continued to improve the reviews features, and extend the user experience with photo uploads, bookmarking and saving searches.

At Yellow Pages we were involved in BAU defect fixes and rolling out the updated versions of legacy sites.

The updates have included a visual refresh, adding ratings and reviews, photo uploads, and social login with Facebook and Google+ on Yellow.co.nz

We worked with StellarLibrary to extend the capabilities of their backend administration.

After starting with the wrappz.co.nz site, we continued working with Fujifilm NZ to create new shopping sites.

We worked on the Wrappz.co.nz project (using PHP and MySQL), to clean up code licensed from the U.K. and implement the NZ website www.wrappz.co.nz

Worked on the nakedgym.co.nz site.

We worked on Telecom's Ferrit online shopping site to deliver new capabilities, such as search and direct bank deposit payments, and to support the huge Perl-based application.
