Custom Applications

What I Build

Every business works differently. Generic software forces you to adapt your processes to fit the tool. I build the tool to fit your processes — so your team works faster, not harder.

WPF Desktop Applications

Rich, responsive desktop applications using C# and Windows Presentation Foundation. These are serious business tools — fast, reliable, and designed for daily use by your team. Connected to Azure SQL databases for secure, cloud-backed data storage.

Web Applications

Modern web-based systems using ASP.NET Core and Blazor. Accessible from any device, anywhere, with the same enterprise-grade reliability as desktop applications.

Enterprise Features

• Azure Active Directory integration for secure, single sign-on authentication
• Role-based access control — different users see different data
• Azure SQL Database with automatic backups and geo-redundancy
• Azure Key Vault for secure credential management
• ClickOnce deployment — automatic updates pushed to all users
• Real-time updates via SignalR when multiple users work simultaneously
• Full audit trails for compliance-sensitive industries
• PDF report generation for quotes, invoices, and documentation

Technology Stack

I work with Microsoft technologies exclusively — not because they're trendy, but because they're proven at enterprise scale and I know them deeply after 20+ years.

• Language: C# on .NET 8
• Desktop UI: WPF with DevExpress controls
• Web UI: Blazor, ASP.NET Core
• Database: Azure SQL, SQL Server, Entity Framework Core
• Cloud: Microsoft Azure (SQL, Blob, AD, Key Vault)
• Architecture: MVVM, Clean Architecture, dependency injection

Real Examples

Every project in my portfolio is a custom application. From inventory management for a VMD-licensed manufacturer to enterprise quotation systems for a £74M+ engineering company — each one built specifically for the client's workflow.
