Hi!
I'm Dan Buxton

A Software Engineer and the director of Skiwi with a Masters in Computational Physics from the University of Edinburgh

I have successfully built apps and websites for a number of different projects with a wide range of technologies, such as React/React Native, Svelte and Flutter. These include a logbook app for extreme sports built with Flutter and using Firebase for user authentication, databases and file storage and this portfolio website built with Svelte and Typescript. I have used Python heavily for data analysis, physics simulations and as a Django backend for an AI powered Wikipedia search engine. To make a physics-based modular airship game I learnt Unity and C# and while at university I worked with Java, C and MIPS as well as AWS and Azure.
