Tech education x DE&I

Prior to greenworkx, my career focus was tech education crossed with DE&I, e.g.:

  • Head of Education at Academy, where I built a global tech training programme for cohorts that are 50% female, 60%+ minority ethnic backgrounds and 30% Black
  • Multiverse software engineering coach, where I trained school leavers and career changers as software engineers for large enterprises
  • teacher trainer with Code Your Future, where I created training for the volunteers who taught CYF's refugee and asylum seeker trainees
  • Black Codher software engineering instructor for two cohorts (40+) Black women learning full-stack software engineering

Open-source

Riduce

👻 I'm the author of Riduce, an open-source library that replaces reducer boilerplate with two lines of code.

(Or: it reduces reducer boilerplate, and gets rid of it - hence, Riducer as a library name!)

Whether you're using useReducer or Redux, reducer boilerplate is tedious to learn, setup and maintain.

What if type-safe state management was quicker, easier and simpler?

Riduce is a library written to be:

  • Strongly-typed, so your state stays predictable
  • Trivial to scale as your state grows more complex
  • Zero hassle, with just two lines of code...

... and one of the 2 lines to setup is an import.

import riduce from 'riduce'

const [reducer, actions] = riduce(initialState)

That's it! Now you've got a type-safe reducer and arbitrary actions, with zero hassle.
