From October 2016, Worldwide Internet Usage on mobile and tablet devices overtook desktop. As such, and with more and more devices having Internet access my aim is to build accessible websites that have a great experience on multiple devices. Responsive Web Design, is one such way that this can be achieved making sure that the content responds to the user's behaviour and environment based on screen size, device and orientation.

Speed sells. Countless studies have shown us how critical it is to make a website that loads fast. Using various performance enhancements and techniques, I optimise websites to be fast. Doing so creates a much better experience for the user, more engagement and more likely to return. Performance is also a huge contributing factor for search engines such as Google.

Style Guide and Component Libraries

Having a defined set of design standards can have a massive impact upon a website and business. How often have you seen a site where buttons were inconsistent? Not only is this frustrating for the person using the site, but it's likely to create frustration amongst the designers / developers working on the site. Having a set of rules to follow, components to reuse and good documentation allows for consistency, avoiding repeat work, easier debugging, faster development going forwards and performance wins.
