Experience

PrefixInc

A custom WordPress theme using Sage as a base. The front end is custom-coded without using any frameworks—it uses an SCSS-and-Webpack module bundler.

The theme uses Carbon Fields to build custom fields.

Portfolio Website

https://naimnaimov.com/

I have been coding websites since 2014 but never had the time to design and build my own. A few years back, I sat down, played around with the design (finding a few pictures of mind), and came up with my own website, highlighting the major events of my life.

Effective Audit

http://effectiveaudit.com/en/home-2/

A presentation website for an accounting company located in Bulgaria. It's a multilingual WordPress website using Ninja Forms as a contact form and QTranslate as the plugin for the translations. The CMS is built using Carbon FIelds.

Musicbox

http://musicbox.naimnaimov.com/

A web app creates music rooms where registered users can log in and add items to their music list from YouTube. The list goes through the songs in order and repeats afterward. The project is ideal for small office rooms where colleagues can queue their music.

IGCook

https://igcook.naimnaimov.com/

I've realized that new companies can boost their online presence using Instagram as an engagement tool.

How to engage people though? The answer is by having a popular account.

IGCook boosts your Instagram account numbers.
