I’m Pedr, an experienced Front End Developer and Designer based in Newcastle Upon Tyne in the North of England. I love concise, readable and well tested code and minimal design where content is king.
I’ve been working as a freelance designer and developer for over ten years and I’m well versed in JavaScript, CSS (including Sass and Styled Components) and a good chunk of Rails. I’ve also developed some non-trivial iOS apps (though not for a while). Over the years I’ve worked for a huge variety of clients from high-street fashion brands, high-end design agencies and startups to NGOs and theatre companies, on websites and both web and mobile apps.
I’m a big fan of CSS-in-JS and functional programming and I am one of the core contributors to Ramda Adjunct, the most popular extension library for Ramda, the gold standard in JavaScript FP, and I’ve contributed to a number of other open-source projects including Gatsby.
I have recently taken some time out to improve my skills through working on a number of my own open-source projects including:
If you’d like to see the code I write you can take a look at my Github and to see what I’ve been stuggling with recently have a look at my Stack Overflow Profile (I’m in the top 2% of contributors and my questions and answers have reached around 1.6 million people).
Last year I co-edited the official Webpack book SurviveJS:Webpack written by Juho Vepsäläinen, one of the core Webpack team.
Alongside writing code I sometimes do print work, photography and the occasional music video which you can see over at my other site unwalked.com.
