Portrait of James Timms

James Timms

Full-stack software engineer (since 2021) focused on building scalable, high-performance web apps with Laravel, Vue, React, and modern JavaScript tooling. Experienced across the full delivery lifecycle, from backend architecture and APIs to responsive frontends and AWS deployment. I deliver measurable impact through migrations, performance optimisation, and pragmatic engineering, and I’m comfortable both contributing in agile teams and leading development, mentoring engineers, and improving quality through testing and structured reviews.

  • Laravel / PHP
  • Next.js / React / Vue
  • Tailwind / CSS
  • MySQL & PostgreSQL
  • AWS (EC2, S3, Lambda)

Modern web apps with clarity & performance.

I design and build fast, accessible products using Next.js, Tailwind, and a Turborepo workspace. This portfolio compiles external demo repos (Git submodules) so each case study ships as a live preview.

  • TypeScript
  • Next.js
  • Node.js
  • Tailwind v4
  • Turborepo
  • PNPM
  • Vercel

Featured Repositories

RH Order Processing

An OOP order-processing exercise with a PHP backend and a Vue 3 frontend. The backend uses polymorphic product types (Digital, Physical, Subscription) with calculateTotal behavior, while the frontend provides a Composition API order manager that adds products and shows a reactive computed order total.

  • PHP v8
  • OOP
  • Vue v3
  • TypeScript
  • Vite v5
  • Tailwind v3
