Launch Date

December 26th, 2008

I coded the SMF studio for a freelance client front-to-back, working off of some design sketches. The site is powered by CodeIgniter / PHP5 / MySQL 5. This was my first foray into coding a dynamic, database driven website, and working with CodeIgniter helped keep my code in order and to abstract some of the complex form handling in the admin tool.

  - Beyond Grammar | An Ithaca, NY and Toronto, ONT Based Editing Service ...
    Our standards of “basic” and “comprehensive” editing roughly follow the descriptions of “light” and “heavy” editing as found in The Copyeditor’s Handbook by Amy Einsohn. As copyeditors we cannot unilaterally decide what level of editing your paper requires. The decision to apply “basic” or “comprehensive” editing must be a mutual one, agreed to by you and us.

  - Nathan Koch | Work - Beyond Grammar
    Helped a client with every aspect of his web presence. Worked with the client extensively on content strategy and search engine optimization, before assembling a simple-yet-elegant design that seemed brand-appropriate. Developed simple managed-content back-end in Django to support the site, leveraging mostly Flatpages as well as a contact form. Wanted to work within a small budget, but to leverage a framework that would allow for additional features like user login and payment.
