Hello. My name is Chris Eady.
I enjoy coding things for the web.
I am a Software Engineer who enjoys building intuitive, functional interfaces for customer needs and sometimes just for fun. Currently, I work on building customized interfaces for customer workflows and data management at HBK Engineering Solutions.
About Me
Hello! My name is Chris, and I enjoy building useful tools for clients, customers, and for fun! I am a self-taught developer — but aren’t we all at some point? 😉 I started with Ruby on Rails back in 2013, then entered the NodeJS ecosystem where I enjoy building elegant and intuitive interfaces with React. I occasionally build things with Python or Kotlin, but JavaScript and TypeScript are my first loves for coding. Lately, I have also been exploring Svelte and SvelteKit. I’ll admit, it is enticing me away from React for some projects as it is so simple to use, and I can focus on HTML and CSS first.
I am married to my wife, Cathy, and am a father of 2 — Zeb and Apphia. I currently work at HBK Engineering Solutions, where I help build tools and interfaces for customers to manage maintenance data and processing workflows.
Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
- JavaScript
- TypeScript
- React
- Redux
- Svelte
- NodeJS
- Kotlin w/Spring
- Python
