I maintain websites for both my own endeavours and for some other private clients. It had become apparent that these needed a substantial update to properly support the modern plethora of devices and browsers. I therefore undertook a major rewrite to ensure that all aspects of each website are now fully device-independent, mobile-friendly and responsive, in the process eliminating prior dependencies on specific browser capabilities and client-side Java. All now use a single unified and highly modular architecture, with all core logic moved to server-side.
