Alex van der Valk
Solutions Engineer at Directus
Hi, I'm Alex, Solutions Engineer and developer. I enjoy all things technical, but the last few years have been focussed on web development.
My skills and passions include:
My Projects
Directus Template CLI
Worked with colleagues to setup a CLI for extracting and applying Directus templates to new projects. This tool uses various APIs provided by Directus to pull everything to flat JSON files
Online Menu
Demo online menu app for restaurants. This pulls its content form a Directus project which makes it easy for non technical people to manage and add new items to the menu.
Bulk CV Loader CLI
Load CVs / Resumes on bulk. Built in duplicate checking based on email, and uses rate limiting to load things quickly without overwelming the downstream APIs
Super Slideout
I built this app to be embedded in Bullhorn ATS. It provides an efficient way for users to review candidates quickly. It uses SSR and FormActions in Sveltekit.
Fake Data Loader
This app uses the Bullhorn API and current setup to quickly generate fake records in your testing system. It does all the heavy lifting on the server, which makes it extremely fast. It interrogates your Bullhorn setup to pre populate dropdowns, and uses faker.js to generate names and other data.
