Building Beyond the Office: The EasyFix & MenuFlow Projects
Current Hobby Projects
While my professional day-to-day involves large-scale railway infrastructure at DB Systel, my passion for building tools extends into my free time. Alongside a dedicated team of creators at EasyFix, I’ve been developing web applications that solve practical, everyday problems.
MenuFlow: Digitizing the Dining Experience
One of our featured projects is MenuFlow. The goal was simple: create a seamless, fast, and multilingual digital menu platform. This project allowed me to flex my frontend muscles, focusing on user experience and responsive design—a perfect contrast to my backend-heavy professional work.
Collaborative Engineering at EasyFix
Through our platform EasyFix, we operate as a small, agile team. This experience is invaluable because it mimics the real-world software lifecycle:
- Rapid Prototyping: Turning an idea into a functional web app quickly.
- Team Synergy: Managing code reviews and feature requests in a non-corporate, high-energy environment.
- Deployment: Using modern platforms like Vercel and Cloudflare Pages for CI/CD.
Why Hobby Projects Matter
Hobby projects are the "laboratory" of a software engineer. They provide the freedom to experiment with new libraries, design patterns, and deployment strategies without the constraints of a legacy codebase. They keep my skills sharp and my curiosity fueled.
