What I build

</>

Web Applications

Full-stack web apps built with Python backends and clean, functional frontends. Fast, reliable, and deployed properly.

FastAPI Python SQLite Docker

Automation & Tools

Scripts, scrapers, and background workers that handle the tedious work automatically — so you don't have to.

Python Scraping Scheduling APIs

Deployment & DevOps

Containerised deployments, reverse proxies, and Cloudflare tunnels. Self-hosted infrastructure that just works.

About

J5 Software

J5 Soft is a one-person software outfit focused on building practical tools and web applications. No agencies, no layers — just well-considered software written by someone who cares about the craft.

The focus is always on simplicity and correctness: understanding the actual problem first, then writing the minimum amount of code that solves it well. No unnecessary frameworks, no over-engineered abstractions.

Based in the UK. Available for freelance projects, consulting, and building things from scratch.
