Hi, I'm Jon Winstanley

I'm a developer
I build web sites and
iPhone apps

Building things is what I enjoy doing most. Luckily for me, that's what I get to do every day.

Languages & Frameworks

React

A frontend Javascript framework for building user interfaces.

React makes building interactive interfaces less painful.

Laravel

A PHP framework that makes building websites a breeze.

Laravel is powerful yet easy to understand and has a great community around it.

Swift

A powerful language for building apps and games for the iPhone

Swift is powerful language with a much simpler syntax than what was there before.

I like to use technology that can get a project up and running really quickly
