#Sass

During my big turn from Java to Ruby, I quitted Less to embrace Sass ! And I won a lot of features :

For now, Sass is the best preprocessor CSS I found.

A personal time tracker

With my new consultancy activity I need to track my time with precision. I also have the need to be able to report my activity to all the different people around me.

In a few days I wrote a first working version of TticTtac which handles my primary needs. It’s up on heroku, absolutly free, give it a try !

We also manage a Trello board, don’t hesitate to drop me an email to be part of it if you want to see someday your favorites features in TticTtac.

Alcatra

Jun 2015 - Now
Characterization of housings' accessibility

ALCATRA is an application which allows a lessor to characterize the accessibility for the housings, the common areas and the buildings according to a ranking DPE like (Classes A to F) based on five disabilities: seniors, wheelchair, auditory, visual and cognitive.

The key of this application stands in a mechanism allowing experts to build complex dynamic decision trees. I am in charge of the whole development process of the application from the conception to the deployment.

The first release has been deployed in Oct. 15th, 2015. I am now focused on the mobile app development (iOS, Android).

Resources

The application is available here: www.alcatra.fr, but only for our customers.

Wy-T-iwyg

May 01, 2015
Markdown document editor based on Rails and AngularJS

wy-T-iwyg stands for What You Type is What You Get. This is a basic document sharing platform, built over a powerful markdown editor with a full real-time rendering.

The front-end is entirely managed with AngularJS (giving a try to AngularJS was actually my main motivation for working on this project) just after the boring registration stuff, while Ruby on Rails takes care of the business model.

wytiwyg

I’m thinking about dropping AngularJS and transform this POC in ruby gem for markdown edition.

CEQ

Oct 2014 - Now
EcoDistricts evaluation campaign

France has been choosen to welcome the next 2015 climat conference.

One objective of this conference will be to show the positive impact of energy efficency wihtin a neighbourhood. In order to achieve this goal, the CSTB has developed a complete methodology allowing the EcoDistrict evaluation. A web application has been developed in order to hide the methodology’s complexity and favor its adoption by local collectivities.

I was in charge of the development team. We have constantly focused our energy on improving the user experience. With agility, we developed the application in parallel to the methodoly definition to help experts work on concrete cases. ‘Keep it simple’ and ‘Don’t repeat yourself’ were our key success factors to be able to refactor everywhere anytime.

Some references about our work and the methodology:

All u track

October 01, 2013
A simple solution for issue tracking

I’m a huge fan of GitHub : it’s fast, slick, easy and so much more… But for the majority of my customers, using GitHub to manage the backlog is overkill. These are the two main ideas behind All-U-Track which offers an issue tracking tool based on the GitHub simplicity.

This app was my first trip with Ruby on Rails, and it was love at first sight !

Prathic-ERP

Mar 2013 - Now
Product referencing portal to improve building accessibility for disabled people

Prathic-ERP is a platform which references products that meet the needs of disabled people in institutions welcoming visitors. This site was created on an initiative of the Ministerial Delegation for Accessibility. The Information and Advice Centre for Assistive Technology (CEP-CICAT) with its operation by managing memberships manufacturers and organizing the publishing committee. A complex publishing workflow was set up to ensure the quality of the publications and the relevance of the products.

On top of this complex workflow, we built simple interfaces both for manufacturers and visitors. I was deeply involved in every part of the project, from the product definition to the deployment. I managed the development process with agility and lead the development team. Since 2013, we have released three major versions.
