BetaSeries Insights
BetaSeries Insights
BetaSeries Insights is one of my proudest achievments. The goal of the website is to provide data analysis of the consumption of TV series to media profesionals.
With over a million members and 200'000 episodes watched per day, it was a real challenge to find the right solution to be able to make real time analytics (statistics on a specific show, audience, trendings…). We decided to use Neo4j, a graph database that fits the deep relational model of BetaSeries.
BetaSeries Insights is a solo project, I've done everything from the data exports/imports to the frontend of the B2B website.

Medical Imaging search engine
Medical Imaging search engine
This challenging project was for a confidential healthcare company, the goal of the application is to provide a search engine for Medical Imaging (for example MRI) in order to classify and find the best images.
The complexity of this projects lies in the segmentation of the information that can be split on several distant servers and must be retrieved and computed locally. I have worked with the DICOM specification and the open source server Orthanc. I had the chance to start the project from scratch and preconize the architecture of the project, using the Symfony framework and the Worklow and Messenger components.

SAAS for Temporary Workers

BetaSeries
BetaSeries
For 10 years of existence, BetaSeries has become your best ally for TV shows: manage your calendar, share your latest episodes watched and discover new shows – within a one million member community.
I've worked for three years as a Lead Backend Developer at Netcats on various projects, including BetaSeries. My job was to lead a junior team (Backend, Frontend and Mobile), to improve the project management processes (agility, continuous integration, review apps) and also to code on the project.
BetaSeries is a 10 years old legacy PHP project (no framework) and I was in charge of architecturing a new version using Symfony that coexists with the legacy code base, to improve the REST API, to make several performance optimizations and to add integration tests.

Diwi
Diwi
Diwi was a dating application and was my first project when I joined Netcats. Due to the very competitve market on dating apps the project has been dropped three years later.
I was in charge of the project management, backend development (REST API, moderation backend) and I also helped making the Android application in react-native.

Teacher at YNOV
Teacher at YNOV
I have been teaching code at YNOV Lyon for two years. I had the pleasure of teaching PHP, Symfony, bash shell scripts and PostgreSQL to three different classes. It was a really heartwarming experience and I learned a lot about patience, pedagogy and what the new generation of coders will be made of.
Conferences and talks
Alice & Bob
Alice & Bob
Alice et Bob sont sur un bateau (Alice and Bob are on a boat) is a conference I gave for the AFUP Day 2019 in Lyon.
The focus of the talk is the making of a good Dataset in order to improve the data quality in a project. I'm using an example (based on "The Love Boat") to help understanding how to think about data fixtures and how to implement them in a PHP project with Alice.
MySQL to Neo4j Import
MySQL to Neo4j Import
Neo4j is a graph database we used for BetaSeries Insights, I've made a talk about it in april 2018 for a Graph Database Lyon meetup. The emphasis of the talk is put on the difficulty and the different methods available to load a lot of data from MySQL to Neo4j.

Neo4j is a graph database we used for BetaSeries Insights, I've made a very quick introduction talk about it for a PHP meetup in Lyon.
Pragmatism Driven Dev.
Pragmatism Driven Development
P.D.D. Pragmatism Driven Development is the first real conference I gave. It was in 2014 for the PHPTour Lyon.
The talk is a feedback about my experience with quality at large, from the code quality to the quality of the people and the processes, what are the mistake I see regularly and what steps can be done to improve the quality of a software.
Metabase with kittens
Metabase with kittens
Metabase is "the easy, open source way for everyone in your company to ask questions and learn from data". It's a dashboard that can connect to various data sources and provide nice charts for your company's metrics. We used it at Netcats and I gave a talk for a Lyon Data Science meetup with a made up use case (facebook, but for kittens).
Hobby code
Phat Fishes
Phat Fishes
Phat Fishes is the anagram of Shapeshift which is the theme of the 35th edition of the Ludum Dare. The Ludum Dare is a Game Jam: a special event where you have to code a game from scratch in a time limit and under specific conditions.
I've participated in several game jams but Phat Fishes is my proudest achievement because I made the game all by myself in under 72 hours! That means code, graphics, UI, FX and music too!
It is just a silly arena game where up to 4 players compete to be latest fish alive, the fish is a Tetraodontidae that can inflate to push other fishes into the ocean's hazards.
You can play it online directly in you browser on the itch.io page!

S + G
S + G
Probably the most crazy and time consuming idea I had is to make an augmented reality birth announcement card.
I made it with Unity3D and the vuforia plugin, each 4 parts of the card turns into a little 3D scene when you hover it with your phone with the mobile app (Android and iPhone).

jevendsdestrucs
jevendsdestrucs
jevendsdestrucs (Imsellingstuff) is a little helper I made to automatically publish offers on multiple websites (Leboncoin and Audiofanzine at first, but more providers could be added).
The offers are written in yaml and a crawler logs in to the providers and fills the form to add the offer.
