Projects
SpaceX Stats
Active
SpaceX Stats is a passion project I developed over four months in 2025 to combine my enthusiasm for spaceflight with my growing web development skills. It tracks every SpaceX launch using a bespoke database of more than 700 missions, which users can explore through interactive cards and detailed pages. The project is built with Next.js on the front end and Supabase for the backend database, deployed seamlessly on Vercel with GitHub for version control. Written in TypeScript and styled with CSS modules, the site offers:
- A dynamic launch feed separating past and upcoming missions
- A reusable card component for consistency across the platform
- Outcome-based visuals that make launch and landing results easy to identify
- Information on SpaceX’s rockets, launch sites, and recovery sites
- A dedicated vehicles page to track the active launch fleet
- An array of launch statistics available on each mission page
SpaceX Stats is an evolving project, with new features regularly in development and long-term plans to expand into a mobile app. To check out the site, click here.
SmartSpoon
Active
SmartSpoon is a mobile app project designed to make food tracking smarter, more practical, and less repetitive. Built with React Native, Expo, TypeScript, and Supabase, the app combines calorie tracking with ingredient management, meal creation, water logging, and food stock tracking. Rather than focusing only on individual daily entries, SmartSpoon is being developed around a more flexible approach to nutrition, helping users understand their average intake over time while making better use of the food they already have.
The app includes:
- A personalised dashboard showing calorie progress and daily totals
- Ingredient tracking with calories, cost, serving information, and optional stock levels
- Meal creation using saved ingredients
- Quick food logging across breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks
- Water intake tracking with a simple progress system
- Supabase authentication and user-specific data storage
SmartSpoon is still in active development, with plans to expand into meal planning, weekly trend tracking, barcode scanning, and AI-assisted suggestions based on the user’s goals, budget, preferences, and available food stock.
Ash Hatchett’s Supercharger Map is a small project I undertook as part of an ongoing passion project to visit every Tesla Supercharger station in the UK. The project features an interactive map provided by OpenStreeMap which includes colour-coded pins in Supercharger locations supported by Leaflet, an open-source library for creating interactive maps. The data for the site is sourced from supercharge.info, a popular, open-source tool within the Supercharge community which tracks all Supercharger related activities worldwide. Each pin can be clicked on to reveal more information about the site, the data for which is stored in a JSON file. Alongside the map are a numebr of statistics related to my visits such as number of sites open/visited and number of stalls open/visited. The stats make use of react-countup, a library which adds responsiveness to the site by creating a "counting up" effect when the page loads.
The Supercharger Map is regualry updated as new sites open and are visited, and plans for new features such as additional stats, images, and date visited are in the works. To check it out, click here.
Interstellar Applications
Interstellar Applications is a collection of my public work. It features SpaceX Stats, and upcoming projects such as SmartSpoon - a calorie and pantry tracking app to aid in supporting fitness goals.
