About Me | Tommy Pyatt

Hi, I'm Tommy - a frontend developer and e‑commerce specialist based in Manchester, UK.

I've been building things for the web since 2012, working mainly within the Adobe Commerce (Magento) ecosystem. Over the years I've worked across everything from legacy Knockout setups to modern Hyvä projects powered by Tailwind and Alpine.js - and I still find something new to learn every day.

My focus in my work is always on clarity and maintainability. I like writing code that makes sense to read, feels good to extend, and quietly gets out of the way once deployed. Whether it's cleaning up a brittle UI or untangling a front‑end build, I take pride in leaving a system a little better than I found it.

Git keeps my workflow organised and honest - every branch tells the story of what I've learned along the way.

Outside of work you'll usually find me tinkering with something or other - setting up a retro gaming machine, experimenting with audio gear, or researching the latest in local AI tooling. I'm also genuinely passionate about open‑source and Linux; most of my experiments start in a terminal window on some distro I've broken and fixed a few times. I like understanding how things work, breaking them (occasionally), and learning from the process.

Thanks for stopping by - if you want to chat about front‑end craft, Magento quirks, or the perfect DAC setup, I'm always up for that.
