Esports platforms, a neighbourhood exchange, a therapy practice, a wedding invitation and an events product. Built from scratch, 6 live and 1 in open beta.
Owners cover each other instead of paying for it.
A competitive esports platform for PUBG on Xbox and PlayStation 5, built to replace the scattered Discord servers and spreadsheets European console teams were using to run competition. It handles signups and brackets, logs every match, and computes a custom CGZ Rating from real performance across lobbies, broken down per map.
OutcomeResults stopped being a matter of opinion.
A site for a BABCP-accredited CBT therapist running a private practice in Surbiton and online across the UK. Sessions in person or remote, a specialties page that takes eight conditions in turn, from the common signs to how CBT treats each one, insurer details up front, and three ways in that match how people actually get in touch: a booking request, a free first chat and WhatsApp.
OutcomeA practice that takes bookings instead of emails.
The official PUBG API deletes match history after fourteen days. GOSU keeps it: full statistical tracking with K/D, ADR, headshot rates and per-weapon data, 2D match replays rebuilt from real telemetry with scrubbing controls, and stream overlays for OBS. Steam, Xbox and PlayStation, currently in open beta.
OutcomeA record that survives the API deleting it.
27 Shots turns every guest's phone into a disposable camera. Scan a QR code at the event, with nothing to install, and you get a roll of 27 shots, or however many the host sets. The host decides when the photos develop: live on the night, when it ends, or at a time they pick. When the roll closes, the platform can cut an auto-edited film from everyone's shots, as a paid extra.
OutcomeEvery guest shooting, and every photo in one place.
A wedding invitation site for my cousin Beth and her husband Scott. Its one job was to collect replies reliably from guests of every age, on whatever phone they already owned, so it opens as a sealed envelope you tap to break and then puts the day in front of you: a countdown, the order of the day, an FAQ that answers what guests actually ask, and a gift page that keeps the bank details behind a button.
OutcomeThe replies came back through the site.
A weekly diary with recommendations and guides, written from Kingston upon Thames and ranging out to Napoli, Marrakech and Istanbul. It is laid out like a magazine: each week is a numbered issue, and the site runs in six sections, About, This Week, Talk, The Private Diary, The Vault and Guides. Editorial rather than bloggy: the typography carries it, the photography is given room, and the whole thing is built to be read on a phone on a train.
OutcomeA personal site that reads like a magazine, not a template.
What I build with, grouped by the job each tool does. The count on each one is how many of the builds above run on it, read from the projects themselves rather than claimed.
