Hi, I'm Tristan.
I'm a software engineer in Lincoln, Nebraska. During the day I manage a development team at Sandhills Global. Outside of work I build my own apps.
Right now most of my spare time goes into inklink, an app for keeping track of what you read and sharing it with friends.
inklink
inklink is a place to log the books you read and see what your friends are reading. You can search for books, keep shelves, track your progress, follow people, and run book clubs.
It's the most complete thing I've built on my own. There are iOS and Android apps built with React Native, a React web app, and a backend on PostgreSQL with Meilisearch for search.
Other projects
Smaller things I've built.
- Attebyte My company. I publish my own apps under it, inklink included.
- PartyMe Group chat and event planning for friends.
- react-tree-select An open-source tree select component for React.
- Singularity Karaoke A desktop karaoke app with singer management, song queuing, and MP3+G support. Coming soon.
- The Hair Exchange A website for a local hair salon, with services, hours, and online booking.
- Restaurant Roulette A small app that used Yelp and Google Maps to pick a random place to eat near you, based on filters you set. No longer live.
Work
I've been at Sandhills Global since I was an intern in college. Most of my work there has been full-stack web development with React, TypeScript, and .NET. These days I lead a small team of developers, work with the business side on what we build, and still spend a good part of my time on architecture and code. I'm also part of the group that sets engineering standards across the company.
