Hi. I’m John Brewer.

Jera Design LLC is my company.

It’s where I create apps that make help people to be better.

Better at electronics.

Better at Improv.

Better at expressing their feelings.

I've been programming now for 35 years professionally. And I have always focused on creating an amazing user experience. I program in whatever language is needed to provide great user experience. On iOS that means Swift or Objective C. When developing 3D applications in Unity that means C# and shader code. And when doing computer vision code that frequently means C++. Whatever language is needed to provide excellent UX.

I don't do server stuff. I do what I think people are now calling edge computing (we used to just call that computing) where the computer is something you can touch as opposed to something running somewhere in the “cloud”. I’m not alone. There is a recurring theme of returning computation to the user. For example, at Apple's worldwide developer conference this year, they announced that they were actually moving Siri onto the handset. This improves the round trip time and improves privacy, and also allows you to use Siri when your phone's not on the network for some reason.
