Mutant Ant

A collection of software experiments


I'm Wayne Robinson, a software developer currently located in the Tampa, Florida area. The projects on this site serve primarily as a chance to try out new tools or languages. As an added bonus, they allow me to indulge my curiosity about a dataset I either generated or found. As works-in-progress they're intended primarily to show friends and colleagues to gather feedback.

The majority of my recent professional experience has been with Java backend server development for a system hosted on Amazon Web Services. To balance that, most of these personal projects involve HTML/CSS/JS frontend web development.
