Developed the front end and back end of a wellness platform where clients can buy fitness and nutrition plans and administrators can manage their workers (specialists) with all the necessary tools to create and organize fitness and nutrition plans and stay in touch with their clients via a private panel.

I built everything on my own, without using third-party plugins, covering the following areas:
• Converted a layout made by a professional graphic designer to HTML5/CSS3.
• Implemented a payment gateway (in this case, the client chose Stripe).
• Implemented a custom "pay per bank transfer" flow in which clients can show the bank transfer confirmation to validate their payment.
• Built an invoice generator that would send PDFs by email after purchasing a plan.
• Created a page for clients to allow easy management of active clients.
• Made a private messaging system between clients and specialists.
• Created custom templates for nutrition and fitness plans.
• Created a built-in calendar page to allow specialists and administrators to keep track of all important events.

Also, I am proactively maintaining the platform and proposing new features that will increase its provided value and ease of use.

As the most vital point of WordPress is that it is open source, I wanted to contribute in a meaningful way. I released a custom plugin that allows handling user login, registration, and dashboard functionalities on the front end, adding as little bloat as possible. I actively maintain this plugin by adding functionalities and improving its code quality regularly.

Salamarkesa is an educational blog made for a local private academy. It is based on WordPress and uses a custom theme with built-in support for good SEO practices and optimized performance.

It also includes a custom plugin that adds extended functionality to the native WordPress admin area, helping authors publish faster and write math, chemistry, and physics equations.
