RosaCode Software
Code. Craft. Care.
About
Me
I'm Matt, a software developer based in South Norfolk. I've spent my career building things professionally, and RosaCode is where I do the same on my own terms — working on the projects that interest me, exploring new technologies, and occasionally shipping something into the world.
Before focusing full-time on software development, I spent several years in academia as a computer science researcher and lecturer.
RosaCode
RosaCode is my independent software label. It's the name under which I build, release, and host digital products — websites, tools, mobile apps, and whatever else takes shape. Small team. High standards.
Everything I build is production-grade — automated tests, CI/CD pipelines, proper environments. The scale might be different from enterprise, but the standards aren't.
What I Build
Web
Websites and web applications, built from scratch.
Mobile
Apps for iOS and Android, designed to last.
Tools & Automation
Scripts, pipelines, and automation.
Interactive
Games, puzzles, and interactive experiences.
Projects
A selection of work produced under the RosaCode name.
Veterans and the Media
RosaCode designed and built the web presence for a University of East Anglia research project, replacing a struggling off-the-shelf solution with a purpose-built site.
West Wight Men In Sheds
RosaCode developed a content-managed website from scratch for a Men's Shed charity on the Isle of Wight. A key design goal was that the site owners could manage content themselves — pages update dynamically from files on their server, with no developer involvement needed for day-to-day changes.
Interview Transcription
Automated transcription of interviews from the
Veterans History Project
for a university research project
RosaCode built an automated transcription pipeline for a University of East Anglia research project, processing 14 Veterans History Project interviews (approximately 13 hours of audio) using cloud transcription services, then post-processing the output into a clean, researcher-readable format. Total cost: approximately £17, cost effective compared to the usual paid manual transcription.
Alpington and Yelverton Community Website
RosaCode developed and runs the WordPress community website for the parishes of Alpington and Yelverton in South Norfolk, on behalf of the Parish Council. This includes content creation, social media promotion, and ongoing site management.
