Project Overview

A component that brings right-click functionality to React web applications built with Mantine UI. Mantine DataTable, one of his most successful open-source projects and probably the most popular data table components for the awesome Mantine UI library, featured a much appreciated row context-menu functionality since its initial release. This project packages the very same functionality as a standalone hook that can be used anywhere in an application built with Mantine UI.

Co-owner, Full-Stack Developer / Lead Developer
Jul 2021 - Feb 20227 months
Project Overview

SWAPP is a workflow management and accounting application built for Romanian freelancers and small-business owners, enabling them to keep track of customers, contracts, projects, work effort, invoices, and check-register entries. It also produces "real-time" accounting and financial reports.

Ionut built the entire platform and website "from scratch" over 7 months in a small team of just 2 people (Ionut as as developer and his wife as a designer) - from hand-drawn UX/UI concepts, through Figma artboards, countless lines of code, to production deployment on a custom VPS.

The universally-rendered React/Next.js application code is written in Typescript and styled with SCSS modules. They're using Next-Auth to manage the user authentication workflow and Prisma with PostgreSQL for data persistence. Most of the business logic is handled within Next.js API routes and they've also used some advanced PL/pgSQL functions to be able to quickly generate "real-time" reports data. The UI is built on top of a slightly customized version of Ant Design - the most complete framework of UI components for React to date, perfectly suited for high-productivity desktop interfaces with heavy data density.

The users' invoice documents are generated on-the-fly using a fantastic library called ReactPDF.

Ionut built a custom (bash-scripts based) scenario to reliably manage the production-deployment workflow, and be able to operate a low-cost production environment on a couple of Docker containers residing on an Ubuntu Server VPS.

They're using Paylike (by LUNAR) to accept online payments from users, and since the application was custom-built, they've rolled thier own integration using Paylike's Web SDK APIs.

Responsibilities:

He is a business co-owner in SWAPP. Following the COVID-19 pandemics, as more and more developers in Romania were switching to remote / independent contractor work, he has discovered the need of an appropriately-sized and reasonably-priced online application to help people manage their work load, accounting and fiscal burden of their activity. Therefore, Ionut:

  • Performed a SWOT analysis on potentially competing products available on the market
  • Identified the initial set of features to build in the MVP
  • Chosen the appropriate tech-stack, necessary 3rd party services, UI framework and libraries
  • Designed the application architecture
  • Designed the data architecture
  • Built the Docker-based development and production environments (custom VPS located in Romania to comply with the European and national GDPR legislation and minimize the subsequent maintenance costs)
  • Written code for the entire backend (PL/pgSQL, Next.js API route handlers - Typescript)
  • Written code for ~80% of the frontend (custom React components written in Typescript, based on Ant Design UI library)
  • Written code for ~70% of the user-facing website, based on designer's Figma mockups (custom React components with SCSS modules for styling)
  • Built custom production deployment workflow & data backup strategy (bash / zsh)
  • Ownership of the entire development, deployment and maintenance process
