John Repici's face     Me?

My name is John Repici. I'm your humble host and developer here on the site. Although Creativyst is a corporation, for the time being I'm the only guy here. :-)

So, if there's anything I can do for you, please don't hesitate to ask... in the forums, or by contacting me directly.

Background

Coming from a hardware background, I've been programming professionally since the mid 1980s. My experience has spanned most forms of programming and design from Assembler (Z80, 6800, x86, and other embedded processors), to Win32 (Access, VB, Borland C/++, Visual C/++). This has also included a variety of non-windows proprietary platforms, such as IBM's 4680 store controller systems.

More recently I've had the distinct pleasure and opportunity to learn and produce non-trivial web-based development projects for clients. These platform-independent applications use a variety of pan-platform tools, such as Perl, JavaScript, MySQL, etc. in a combination that is sometimes referred to as "LAMP".

Basically

The short version: I am very good at most things having to do with software development. This includes software design, helping customers to understand their requirements, what is possible, and whether its worth doing in the first place. Also the minimum stuff like specifying, coding, delivery, and training.

Downside Sampler

In the interest of honesty and transparency I should also share some of my shortcomings. I'm a truly lousy salesperson. I tend to want to re-invent wheels, though I make a considerable effort to compensate for this known issue. I don't like to adopt new technologies until it is reasonably certain they will be around for a while.

One more thing, I often use the original names for stuff that has recently been renamed to sound new and exciting (read: "marketable"). For example, I might say "library grade functions" instead of "re-usable methods" ("you say 'aspect weaver', i say 'function library', let's call the whole thing off").
