I work in browser internals, Rust, and cross-platform apps. That same obsession with what's happening under the hood is exactly why the websites I build for businesses are fast, lean, and hand-made — never bloated templates.
Most of these are self-initiated concept builds — I research a real Perth business, write real copy, and ship a working site before the first conversation. One (Lebob Robotics) is live and shipped. Every one is hand-written and fast.
I compete with Team Lebob and built their official site — photo galleries, team info, and project docs, shipped as an optimised static build and live at lebob.com.au.
No jargon, no templates. I design and build websites for small businesses the same way I build software — lean, quick, and made around your actual business.
A clean website that loads instantly on a phone, works for everyone, and is built around what your business actually does — not squeezed into a template.
Most small-business sites are heavy template builds that crawl on mobile. I spend my days in browser internals and Rust — so the sites I build are genuinely fast, accessible, and mobile-first.
I research your business, write real copy (no filler), and build a working site before our first proper conversation. You see something real, not a sales pitch — exactly like the previews above.
Open to web projects for Perth businesses — no brief required to start.
andre@nijman.com.au ↗Browsers, emulators, cross-platform apps — the kind of work that only goes well if you understand the layer below. This is where the speed comes from.
A Firefox/Gecko-based, focus-first, distraction-free browser. I work on desktop features and the core browsing experience in the open-source codebase.
A cross-platform lyrics companion with three clients — an Android app (Compose + MediaSession), a Tauri desktop app, and a web build. Synced LRC lyrics, waveform-style seek, CJK romanisation.
A lightweight retro game launcher with emulator cores in Rust — Game Boy, NES, SNES, DS, PlayStation, N64. Drop ROMs in a folder, launch from one command. SDL2 + Vulkan rendering.
I care how tools behave under the hood. Every project gets profiled, not guessed at — the same instinct whether it's a browser internal or a small-business landing page.
Off-screen it's physical robots: I'm design captain of FRC team 4788 “Can't Control” at Curtin University, and I compete with FLL team Lebob. Same design instinct — the robot just has wheels.
No template bloat, no filler. Every kilobyte is there on purpose. The terminal is home.
Open to interesting projects, collaborations, and conversations. No pitch deck required.
The fastest way to start. Tell me what your business does — that's enough.
