I built a custom analytics platform to track usage on projects.
We track page views, sources, sessions, bounce rate, custom events, and many more all with just adding a script to the layout of your application.

Catching up with posting on my Contra portfolio, first is a backend engineering project I got done for By Any Means Basketball.
Smooth visuals 🔥 What did you use to design the UI/UX?
Took a couple of days away from lastseen.city to build something completely different.
I've noticed every job seeker eventually ends up with the same thing: a giant spreadsheet tracking applications, interviews, rejections, follow-ups, and deadlines.
So I started exploring what happens when that spreadsheet becomes a product.
Built a startup-focused hiring platform with job discovery, company profiles, candidate dashboards, and a visual application tracker that makes the whole process feel a little less chaotic.
Still early, but it was a fun exercise in moving beyond marketing websites and into product design, workflows, search, and dashboard UX.
Curious what people think of the tracker concept
The shift from marketing site to actual product UX is a different muscle entirely. The kanban view for applications is a nice call, that mental model maps better to job searching than a spreadsheet ever did.
Day 6: Last Seen is spreading
Last week I asked Reddit what closed places people still think about. 217,000+ people saw the question. 1,982 left an answer.
So I built somewhere to put them.
lastseen.city is a dual-layer archive, red for places that are gone, amber for places still here but worth finding before they're not. Seeded with 100+ locations across London, New York, Liverpool, Paris, and beyond, built from real memories people left in the comments.
Six days in:
- 990 visitors, 2,316 page views
- 60 countries reached
- 344K Reddit impressions
First entries now in California, India, and Germany. Nobody asked for it to go global. It just did.
Still deep in UI/UX, the experience needs to match the emotional weight of what people are actually sharing here. More on that soon.
