App Not Working on Some Browsers or Devices
Your app works fine on your browser (usually Chrome) but breaks on other browsers like Safari or Firefox, or on specific devices. Features don't work, layouts break, or the app doesn't load at all.
Common Causes
- Using browser-specific APIs not supported everywhere (e.g., some CSS features in Safari)
- JavaScript syntax not supported in older browsers
- Safari has stricter cookie and storage policies that can break auth
- Mobile browsers have different viewport handling
- WebKit rendering differences causing layout issues on iOS
How to Fix It
- Test on the broken browser — open the console (F12 or equivalent) for error messages
- Check Can I Use (caniuse.com) for any APIs or CSS features your app relies on
- If Safari breaks auth, check cookie settings — Safari blocks third-party cookies by default
- Add appropriate CSS prefixes for Safari (-webkit-) and Firefox (-moz-)
- Test on actual devices, not just browser dev tools device emulation

I’ve watched the tech landscape evolve over the last decade—from the structured days of Java Server Pages to the current "wild west" of Agentic-driven development. While AI can "vibe" a frontend into existence, I specialize in the architecture that keeps it from collapsing.
My expertise lies in the critical backend infrastructure: the parts that must be fast, secure, and scalable. I thrive on high-pressure environments, such as when I had only three weeks to architect and launch an Ethereum redemption system with minimal prior crypto knowledge, turning it into a major revenue stream.
What I bring to your project:
Forensic Debugging: I don't just "patch" bugs; I use tools like Datadog and Explain Analyzers to map out bottlenecks and resolve root causes—like significantly reducing memory usage by optimizing complex DB joins.
Full-Stack Context: Deep experience in Node.js and React, ensuring backends play perfectly with mobile and web teams.
Sanity in the Age of AI: I bridge the gap between "best practices" and modern speed, ensuring your project isn't just built fast, but built to last.

I've been working at a large software company named Kainos for 2 years, and mainly specialise in Platform Engineering. I regularly enjoy working on software products outside of work, and I'm a huge fan of game development using Unity. I personally enjoy Python & C# in my spare time, but I also specialise in multiple different platform-related technologies from my day job.

It works on Chrome but breaks on Safari. Is that common?
Very common. Safari has different CSS rendering, stricter cookie policies, and some JavaScript APIs aren't fully supported. AI tools typically test only on Chrome.
Do I need to support all browsers?
At minimum, support Chrome, Safari, and Firefox — that covers 95%+ of users. A developer can identify and fix the specific compatibility issues.
