After getting familiarized with Bootstrap 3, I wanted to know more about using Bootstrap 4 and its features, so I made a mockup of a portfolio that uses Bootstrap 4. This is the result.
The website also experiments with loading the subpages through JavaScript persistently without switching out the main page and header/footer.
2017-2018
In 2017, a webpage was made from scratch for a small game development community, Spherical. The old version of the site did not communicate properly what the Sphere game engine or community really was. The new front page aimed to fix that.
In 2018, a custom theme was also made for the forums, matching the main site.
2017-2018
I have created and edited several websites for Kroon Webdesign for several different clients, including:
And many others.
Besides setting up small WordPress websites with a selection of themes and plugins, I have also edited and developed custom functionality on top of them by leveraging WordPress’ PHP API. One example of this is the Members page on BV Hilversum, which includes a custom display of the profile page and listing.
Custom PHP/HTML/CSS/JS work has also been done, for example for the HTML version of Voila’s annual report of 2017. (This work has been done through the marketing agency Concentus.) The CMS that their annual report is displayed in is based on PHP and needed some adjustments and additions to the code as well.
On each of my projects, I tend to have a lot of feedback and advice I can give back to the organization so that it can have an idea of possible future improvements and changes in their system, content and their online offerings.
2018
This was a project for Morgenwerk.nl, an online job agency that wanted to improve their online job application platform by making it fully responsive (mobile friendly).
A lot of work was put into reflowing the content on mobile devices so that phones also become a first-class citizen for the platform.
Morgenwerk’s web app is coded in Ruby, Haml and uses Bootstrap 3 so I learned how to use these effectively. I also learned a lot about Bootstrap 4 and cherry-picked features from it to put into the website.
April-November 2017
I interned at web hosting company CloudResident between May and November of 2017. I created and worked on several different products during my time there.
What I’ve done there
For CloudResident’s brand and website:
2016-2017
I worked at web marketing company Green2B for five months, developing and updating several different WordPress websites and learning how to manage a server.
I made and improved several websites, including (but not limited to):
All web pages were made to be fully responsive, so that they function well on both phones and desktops.
2015-2016
A portal hub for Telefang.net, a fan community based around the Japanese video game Keitai Denjuu Telefang. The visuals are based on in-game graphics. Coded from scratch with HTML5, CSS and JavaScript.
2014-2015
A webcomic reader for manga.telefang.net, heavily utilizing JavaScript to navigate through the pages. Responsive, and includes some customization options (like a reversed manga mode).
It utilizes some GPL 2.0-licensed PHP code to read images in a directory, but is otherwise all coded by me.
2013
An old launcher GUI for a game engine called Sphere. Made using NW.js, which uses the Node API to allow people to create desktop applications using web technology. I never finished it, but it was a nice exercise in HTML, CSS and general GUI design.
Looking back at it, I realize how much I’ve grown in making appealing graphical designs… Practice makes perfect, I suppose!
2004-2009
My old hobby website. It’s still online, preserving some of the old things I made.
