Russell Beswick

Solution Architect

Built with Custom Elements

I solve problems. Usually with code, always with logic and attention to detail. I've taken my decades of experience in the fields of IT and Web Development and focused them into three specialized service offerings...

Web Sites and Apps

Full featured development done right. I build rich, interactive User Experiences on a rock solid Custom Framework.

Widgets

Plug & Play modules for your exisiting website or app. Bits of functionality, fully isolated from the host page. No conflicts with existing page styles or scripts. Modern WebAPIs allow for some amazing features. The only limit is your imagination.

Workflow

Scripts or utilities to automate workflow tasks. Data manipulation, reporting, consolidation, visualization, etc. Save time and hassle by letting a wizard handle it.

Besworks.net

The previous iteration of my website. Made use of lots of animations, shadows and lighting effects to create a stunning visual experience.

VeronaComputers.com

Single page, brochure style website for a local business in my area.

ITeMS

IT asset tracking and management software with real-time record filtering. Printed custom labels and interfaced with a handheld barcode scanner to scan them.

LiveAgent

Sip.js, WebRTC & Socket.io based Call Center Operator/Manager combo application. Event oriented Node.js service that wraps around a FreeSwitch server.

Chat Widget

Floating chat window Web Component. Self-contained module with all assets embeded for fast loading via CDN.

Financial Calculators

With automatic formatting of numeric inputs and automatic calculation of results as you enter data.

Photo Editor

Designed for moderation of user uploads, this canvas based image editor can flip, rotate, crop and blur images before saving them as png files and uploading them back to the server.

Card Manager

This Electron based desktop app allows it's owner to build and print sets of game cards for a battle style of game similar to Magic The Gathering or Pokémon.

HaloStats.info

Clan app for tracking Halo 4 matchmaking statistics. No longer active as H4 is basically dead now.

I have a proven track record of excellence but don't take my word for it. Here's what a few of my clients have had to say...

Russell is a delight to work with! I'm a developer myself so I can assess the ability of another developer. I have found Russell to be top notch. He thinks deeply about a problem and comes up with very elegant / well designed solutions. He is very professional in his approach and I look forward to working with him again soon.

Russell is extremely prompt, professional, and proactive. More often than not, he thought of and addressed my requirements himself, sometimes even before I did. Highly recommended.

Russell voluntarily included an animated movie in his proposal. How often have you seen that happening in this sea of freelancers who copy paste their bids/proposals after reading the first paragraph of your job description?

The web is a complex environment that takes years to master. That's why you should hire a developer for your project who is awesome.

Superior

I've seen the standards evolve and trends change many times in my career. I keep a close eye on the latest browser features so you can be sure that any project you commision from me will be light-years ahead of the competition.

Semantic

You won't get any sphagetti code or div soup from me. I take pride in writing clean, descriptive, modular code using industry standard best practices.

Secure

I value my privacy and I respect yours. Your personal information will never be shared with any third party and your customers' data will be just as safe.
