Nicholas Stanford

I’m a full-stack developer building web applications, automating tasks, and managing the entire stack: infrastructure, services, and frontend. My go-to tools are PHP, Python, and Unix shell scripts. Lately, I’m building lead pipelines and analytics tools in Laravel, Vue, and TypeScript, while tinkering with Astro, React, and Svelte for fast, lightweight interfaces.

I prefer simple, well-architected systems over duct-taped ones, and I obsess over intuitive UX. I excel at deep-dive research into tangled codebases. I use AI to rapidly test ideas and interrogate architecture. I implement in small, inspectable chunks so I can learn the details, steer design, and own my code.
