Your business is unique — your software should be too
Custom web and mobile applications for companies in education, healthcare, agriculture, and beyond. I've been doing this for nearly a decade.
About
I'm Melody Tribble, and I build custom software for businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets, off-the-shelf tools, or aging systems that can't keep up. I've spent nearly a decade working with companies across education, healthcare, agriculture, music, and energy.
Whether you need a new application built from scratch, an existing system modernized, or complex tools connected so your team stops doing manual work — I handle the full process from planning through launch.
I'm straightforward, I keep you in the loop, and I build things your team can maintain without me.

Services
Web Applications
Full-stack apps built with Rails, React, Node.js, and TypeScript. From database design to deployment, I handle the entire stack.
Legacy Modernization
Slow, fragile, or stuck on old technology? I've moved companies off no-code tools, AngularJS, hard coded cron jobs, and legacy frameworks onto modern stacks.
Technical Discovery & Audits
A thorough audit of your existing system — architecture, performance, and scalability. You get a prioritized report so you know what to fix first.
API Design & Integrations
Connect your systems to third-party services like Stripe or Metrc, expose your data through a secure public API, or pull from any online source. If it's on the internet, I can integrate it.
AI-Built Software Review
Built something with AI but not sure if it's solid? I'll audit your code or site for security, performance, and scalability — then help you fix it.
Mobile Development
React Native apps that share logic with your web app, so your users get the same experience on both. One codebase, two platforms.
Team Coaching & Integration
I work alongside your engineers — pairing, reviewing code, and helping improve how your team ships. Not a workshop. Real work, real code.
UI/UX Design
Wireframes through polished mockups in Figma. Because I also build what I design, you don't end up with designs that can't be built.
Work
JetpackED
A school network needed a single place to track student progress across 20+ different online learning programs. The original tool was being discontinued and nothing off the shelf could replace it. I took over the platform and rebuilt it on a modern architecture with serverless data pipelines that automatically process and aggregate data as it arrives — now serving 22,000+ students across 19 schools with automated daily reports for teachers, administrators, and parents.
Artemis
A web and mobile platform for indoor farms — crop scheduling, compliance tracking, inventory, labor, and yield predictions. I helped modernize the app for larger customers, built integrations with third-party compliance and customer systems through the public API, and led feature teams of 3–5 engineers.
Telehealth Scheduling Platform
A telehealth clinic needed scheduling that worked with Healthie, their Electronic Health Record system. I built a scheduling wizard that connects directly to Healthie's API, so appointments stay in sync without anyone re-entering data.
Hydraulics Job Tracking
A hydraulics company needed to track jobs across their shop floor in real time — from intake through completion. I built a live dashboard where staff move jobs through stages and everyone sees updates instantly, replacing whiteboards and phone calls with a system that works on desktop and mobile.
Remote Network Management
A remote internet provider's device management tool couldn't keep up as their network grew — it was pinging thousands of devices in real time and getting slower by the month. I rebuilt the app on a modern stack and the performance problems went away.
Musical Theater Catalog
A musical theater company had outgrown their no-code tool for managing keyboard programming, orders, and licensing. I rebuilt it as a proper web application with an admin interface, giving employees full control over their catalog and order workflow.
