What I'm working on

ChiroCat

Contract · remote · 2021 - now

Chiropractic clinics in the US use ChiroCat for charting, scheduling, texting with patients and billing. Insurance claims and ERAs are handled inside the app too.

I work on the whole Laravel app, backend and front-end. A big part of my time goes into billing: claims, insurance payments, processing ERAs. Also integrations with other services, queues, MySQL and MSSQL, Vue and AWS.

Code News

A news app for developers. You pick the technologies you work with and it shows you news only for those, with a daily brief and a short summary on top of each article. I built the PHP backend and the Android app.

An Android app for answering the gate intercom from your phone. It talks to a Raspberry Pi at home, which talks to a Dahua intercom that has no public API. The recordings stay at home.
