About

Hey, I'm Harry!

I started this blog to pull myself out of my comfort zone and help stay up to date within the industry while sharing my journey here. There's no set schedule to when I post, but you're welcome to subscribe nonetheless.

Currently, I'm employed and developing solutions for the automotive sector. On the side, I have a couple of side projects that you can follow below!

Current and Past Projects

Toolflow.dev

An SPA (Single Page App) I built in a weekend off the back of wanting to try out Nuxt v3. Not much to say about it other than it hosts a collection of dev-related tools.

Toolflow
Empower your development workflow with ToolFlow’s extensive suite of developer tools. Boost productivity and efficiency with a wide range of coding aids, code generators, and debugging utilities.

QRMetric.com

My latest SaaS, born as an extension to RandomQR. I wanted to extend into the dynamic QR code game and I had this domain sitting around since 2017 or so. The first version, for one reason or another, wasn't where I wanted it to be. So I started again from scratch and got the MVP launched in about 3 days of work. (Laravel ❤️)

QRMetric - Your Dynamic QR Code Buddy
Create Dynamic QR Codes that can be modified without requiring you to redistribute a new QR code. Can be changed any time, any place, anywhere.

Formie.io

Your form backend buddy to pair up with your static websites or let Formie host your form for you. Set up your form and validation rules, then point your form's action to the given endpoint to start receiving submissions.

Built with Laravel, Inertia (Vue).

Formie - Your Modern Form Companion
Host your own forms without any servers, and let Formie handle your form backend with validation and email forwarding.

RandomQR.com

RandomQR is literally what it says on the tin. It's a tool to generate random QR codes. Built with JavaScript/Nuxt.js/Vue and hosted on Netlify.
