Create a Rapid Prototype MVPs for Start-ups from Specification to Realization and beyond!
Starting from the earliest conceptional ideas in this start-up - I created the technical specification and went on to realize the MVP, I then implemented a payment gateway with Authorize.net and a plug-in for Ammoready.com which then went on to adopt us into their ecosystem and enable an official XML feed plugin for export of product UPCs and stock data.
Gun Coyote is a fully fledged real-time search engine built on open source technologies and hosted by the team in their own dedicated data center.
Working with Open Source Projects
Developing Gun Coyote included compiling and configuring Typesense for realtime search from the website and to display search predictions in React using Semantic UI - I took advantage of the Meteor framework to provide a rapid prototype and suitable base to build the project upon
