About Me

So who are you?

Hi I’m Glyn Mooney. I’m a web developer in North Wales currently working for The WorldSpan Group as part of the creative team. I over the last 4 years have been doing a lot of work with PHP 5 and even learned how to harness it as an Object Orientated language to rapidly create stable, re-usable code. As well as PHP I specialise in front end scripting and meta languages such as CSS, XHTML and JavaScript (even though I very rarely use anything but jQuery these days). Once I got the bug for PHP I started to work with library’s such as PEAR, CakePHP, Zend and even developed my own MVC application using PEAR classes as a base.

Over the years I’ve been developing applications from scratch or I’ve had the pleasure of working with the following:

• WordPress
• ZenCart
• Magento

I’ve even developed credit card payment gateways for vendors such as PayPal, SecPay, WorldPay and so on.

I’ve recently decided to brance out and learn some more languages and I’m currently learning Ruby, Rails and Python for use with dJango. With these new skills under my belt I intend to spend less time developing the common CRUD part’s of the application ang get on with Wowing the client.

So what’s the site for?

Well over the year’s I’ve learned a lot of thing’s that I wish I’d known a few years ago. So the site is intended to allow me to share this knowledge with the rest of the community as well as post pointers to other good sources of information along the way. So I hope you agree with what I’m doing and you’ll find something of interest around the site!

Thanks for visiting!
