Hey, I'm Jo Loveridge.
A freelance web developer - building websites that work for everyone.
Based in Portsmouth, UK, I collaborate with agencies, freelancers, and creative teams who need a developer to bring their designs to life. I’m passionate about clean, accessible HTML & CSS, and custom WordPress development.
What I do.
WordPress.
I build custom themes from scratch, as well as working on existing WordPress sites.
- Custom theme development
- ACF (Advanced Custom Fields)
- ACF Flexible content
- Gutenberg
- Gutenberg + ACF
- Visual editors using Gutenberg + ACF
- Woocommerce
- Documentation Writing
- Website Healthchecks
- Code Audits
Code.
I specialise in writing good, clean, semantic HTML and CSS, as well as being an expert in WordPress. But that’s not all I can do:
- HTML
- CSS
- Scss
- BEM
- Accessibility
- Responsive
- Gulp / Webpack
- Git
- Responsive HTML Emails
- ITCSS
- jQuery
- Tailwind
Design.
As a developer (who also designs) I’m well versed with most of the popular design programmes:
- Figma (my design tool of choice)
- Sketch
- Adobe Xd
- Photoshop
- Indesign
- Illustrator
- Affinity (Photo & Publisher)
- Canva
Communicate.
I work remotely, with occasional visits to client offices, and have been doing so successfully since 2008. I am well versed in a variety of project management & communication tools.
- Slack
- Clickup
- Trello / Basecamp / Teamwork / Monday
- Zoom / Google Meet / Teams
- Jira / Asana
- Miro / Mural
- Toggl / Timely
Who I work with.
I’ve had the absolute pleasure of working with each of these agencies or companies over the years.
