John David Ford

Throughout many years of physical, mental, and emotional struggles, I have tested my resilience to develop a unique skillset developing & deploying self-hosted web and cloud application solutions.

Let's Talk

My Portfolio

The below cloud applications were developed & deployed entirely by myself, using a combination of web-based self-teaching, artificial intelligence mentorship, professional certification, and academic excellence.

The “tech stack” is a home  Linux Ubuntu 24.04.4 webserver using  Dockerized  containers for the webapps and routed via  Apache2  for a reverse proxy.
