Side Projects

Things I’ve made

In my spare time I like to code up little side projects. Recently, I’ve been trying to improve my UX workflow by creating FigJam plugins to use at work. I also have a couple of music-themed sites that I initially created in lockdown times that still get used (which is cool!).

Sticky Tags

Sticky Tags is a text-based tagging tool designed to help you and your team speed up your research synthesis in FigJam. It implements a version of the synthesis-accelerating features currently available in Miro, including adding tags to sticky notes and automatically creating clusters of sticky notes by tag.

Filtered Sticky Selector

Filtered Sticky Selector is a text-based selection tool designed to make it easier to filter and select sticky notes based on their content, colour and/or author. It implements the filters available in excel to remove the need to pre-filter content there before importing to FigJam.

Lyrics Searcher

I created this Taylor Swift Lyrics Searcher during covid (and at the start of the re-record hype!). It pulls lyrics from a json file that I populated by calling the genius API with python. The lyric tiles are coloured based on album art and the search experience is highly customisable.

In the last month (October 2023), the site had 17.5k+ visits with 23.5k+ searches made.

Lyrics Quiz

I built this quiz game based off the existing code base from the lyrics searcher above. Players can select from a list of quiz types (by album or song section e.g. Choruses) and then have to guess the line based on the lines before and after. Scores are calculated by similarity and then shown in an interactive summary graph at the end.

In the last month (October 2023), 4.5k+ quizzes were completed and 11k+ were attempted on the site, with 7.5k+ visits to the home page.
