I'm Matt, Design Engineer from the UK.

But i live in Bulgaria.

I've been designing & developing for over 20 years.

But i've done it professionally since 2008.

I play football & support my home team LFC.

Additionally i like Snowboarding, hiking and camping.

I'm currently building

An open-source Next.js boilerplate

I'm currently building in public an open-source Next.js boilerplate/SaaS starter kit called firestarta.dev. Built from the ground up with Next.js, NextAuth, Prisma, Supabase, Shadcn/ui and Tailwind and it's already packed full of cool features. Firestarta has a full OAuth authentication flow with custom signin pages, server components and user accounts. I'm building itin public and you can follow regular updates both on GitHub and Twitter.

Recently i built something.

So i could improve my skills

It's called nextjobs.dev - I made it during September '03 as a side project after losing my previous job. I wanted to make a full-stack web application that could both showcase my design and development ability while learning some more. It uses my current flavour mentioned below and utilises a bunch of Next 13's awesome new features like edge functions together with Prisma's new Accelerate product.

While i'm searching for a job i'd be happy to give employers a tour of the repo!
