That's a fair question. I'm Alex Foxleigh and it's very nice to meet you. I'm a frontend technical architect/tech lead, mostly focused on NodeJs and React.js. I was the founding developer of the Royal Navy Design System.
I've also worked with various government/military agencies including (but not limited to):
- The Cabinet Office 'COBR' team during the 2020 COVID-19 crisis.
- The NHS
- DEFRA
- The Royal Navy
- The Home Office
- The Ministry of Justice
- The Department for International Trade
- The UK Intelligence community
I'm a big smart-home enthusiast and a general automation nerd (blog post coming soon).
- I'm currently working with The Arch Company to support and augment the new website I recently built for them.
- A React/Python app to assist people with moving house
- CV Blaster A Python/NextJS tool to help people to manage their CV's online
- A NextJS/Sanity rebuild of my Personal website which is now YEARS out of date. I've just published the beta version but still have A few more upgrades in mind
- As always, I'm working on my smart home, this is a huge undertaking with a lot of moving parts, it's primarily based around Home Assistant using Node-Red for all of it's automations. I plan on writing a few blog posts about it soon.
You won't find all of my projects on this GitHub account, I also have a 'software brand' of sorts called 'SpaceNectar', you can see the projects I've worked on for that right here: https://github.com/spacenectar
Keep an eye on my Website (and here) for my availability and updates. I'm generally not free for smaller freelance projects as I tend to focus on one client at a time and my availability is limited. However, I'm always happy to chat about potential projects, so if you have something that you think I may find exciting, please get in touch.
Rather than share my contact details here and risk getting spammed, I'd recommend you get in touch with me via LinkedIn.
If you just want to say thanks if something I have built is useful to you then feel free to message me on LinkedIn or you could always buy me a coffee :)
