Projects

A few things I've designed and built.

NFT Marketplace
NFT Marketplace
NFT Explorer is a non-custodial NFT marketplace and launchpad built end to end. Users can create their own NFT collections, mint, list, buy, and make offers, with every write going straight from the wallet to the smart contracts. A custom indexer turns on-chain events into fast queries for floor prices, volume, ownership and activity history. It runs on the Sepolia testnet, with the web app on Vercel and the data in Postgres on Supabase.

    London, UK

I’m Ivaylo, a Software Engineer based in London, currently working at Space NK across web and mobile.

I started on the web team working on spacenk.com and now build features for the iOS and Android apps with React Native.

I’m particularly interested in AI and how it’s changing software development. I use it throughout my workflow and enjoy experimenting with AI-powered ideas in my side projects.
