Some useful links about me: I have mostly worked with PHP based backend technologies such as object-oriented, corporate friendly licensed, and a rigorously tested Zend Framework codebase. Of course, a backend programming language and a framework is not enough to develop a robust web application. I have advanced knowledge of SQL (plus I know my way around PL/SQL), relational databases and data model patterns used in database architectures (one-to-many, many-to-many). In addition, I have a solid understanding of markup and presentational languages such as HTML, XHTML, CSS, XML and I am able to cooperate with designers to produce a user friendly, accessible and secure web application. I have a strong knowledge of JavaScript, AJAX and jQuery framework, too. Finally, I am large-minded and have at least a little experience with most mainstream technologies from Java, C# and Python to SOAP web services.

E-learning
I was a part of the team that developed an e-learning web portal (elearning.besoft.sk - you can try the demo version for free to see basic functionality) which allows employees to complete occupational safety and fire protection courses required by law in their web browser. The e-learning application also needed to be integrated with a legacy CRM system which was the second part of the project. My main responsibility was for the first part of the project, the e-learning portal. However, I also worked on some extra functionality for the legacy CRM system (eklient.besoft.sk)

Hunnyhive
I have developed a large social networking website for amateur models (hunnyhive.com - I have programmed this website from scratch using Zend Framework. The only thing provided to me was a PSD template.). I believe it is a good piece of work.

Zentman
Zentman (http://zentman.richardknop.com) is my personal project. It is an eterprise content management system based on Zend Framework. I am developing it in my free time. It aims to be secure, flexible and future proof. It is still under development but all important parts are already implemented therefor I have a lot of reusable high quality code to use in my other projects.
