Accessibility

It takes all kinds of wierdos to make a world. Websites need to cater for everyone. Webegg is fully aware of this.

Responsive Design

Webegg makes sites that look as good on popular Tablets and Smartphones as they do in the browser.

User Experience

Usability is a hugely important part of good Web design. The Study of UX is something Webegg is passionate about.

I'm a Web Developer dedicated to inspiring design using modern & standard practices.

Interface Design

Web site design continues to move at a fast pace. My years of creative experience, especially in Front End Development, means that Web sites I build put the fun in functional.

User Experience

The users experience (UX) has become increasingly important in modern web site design. I use the latest techniques to make the UX engaging - plus leading the user at the same time.

Web Services

Web services can be used create some useful functionality without unecessary work on a system built from scratch. I can learn or leverage knowledge I have of existing Web Services.

Web Standards

Surprisingly few Designers have caught on to the importance of standards in web design. For me, it is the most important driving force behind all the sites I build.

Unique Sites

When there is a rock solid plan for a startup business online, I also have experience with the server-side scripting language php. I am able to provide solid advice on feasability and strategy for many projects.

CMS, eCommerce

There are a huge array of web applications for free or otherwise that I can set up and introduce you to, the main advice I can give you here is, keep it simple or people won't buy from you.

Welcome

This site is the offspring of Matt, a Bournemouth based Web Developer who has over 12 years of experience covering a vast array of skills ranging from User Experience through to Interactivity design, Search Engine Optimisation (the proper kind) and PHP (the stuff that makes the cogs go round).

If you're here to learn at any level, you're in the right place. My aim is to provide no nonsense articles mixed in with more in depth coding to help anyone at any level.

Please bear with me as I have just redesigned the site entirely to make things even easier to use and find. I intend to organise the current content into levels as well as topics.

This area is intended as an extra no nonsense guide in general areas of the site to help you around and reassure you that there is a respectful and professional human being behind all of this. I hope you enjoy using the site.

Learn something about making Web Sites. These articles are for anyone involved in using, designing or building them.

  • A Journey into React.js

    • Dear Valued visitor, Thank you so much for your support and interest in the articles on Webegg. Whilst a lot of content is totally free, some of the things I put a lot of work into are slightly restricted in terms of code and demo links. I’ve had to do this to keep my level […]

  • Local Web sites on iPad & mobile

    • When I build sites I, like a fair few other Web Designers, use a local server setup. For me it’s WAMP at the moment. In order to work on many peoples sites at once, not having to copy/paste or constantly rename things, I have to use a combination of the Windows hosts file, which is […]

  • Don’t be an anti-semantic

    • I often get the feeling that there are many people who hear the word ‘Semantics’ mentioned by Front End Designers in passing but don’t really know what it means. Rather than go straight into Web Semantics & how this relates to the Web and building semantics into HTML, I think it is important not to […]

  • jQuery Multiple Filter

    • Lately I have been much more focused on creating useful things that I have had the motivation to actually write a Blog post on something I made a while ago. Try the Demo Download the code I should point out that this is quite advanced and some undertsanding of the finer points of HTML/CSS/jQuery are […]

  • FOUT – What’s that all about?

    • What is FOUT? Flash Of Unstyled Text is a phenomenon that occurs in some browsers when using the @font-face rule in css. The @font-face rule as I’m sure most professional Front End Designers already know, is one of the most hotly debated design tools that make using beautiful and more importantly accessible and selectable Typography, […]

  • The Advertising Riddle

    • If you’re anything like me, you like reading blogs and other online content to learn things, be inspired and have a nice experience while you’re doing it. I was recently made aware an article over at Usability post called ‘a motive for bad design’. Being someone who strives for the highest quality possible, it took […]

  • Flicker effect with jQuery

    • During the design process of a recent project homepage, I wanted to use an effect that native jQuery plugins or javascript effects could not achieve in the way I wanted them to. My idea was to have as spooky a theme as I could on the site and the main feature of the homepage would […]
