Portfolio
A browser extension that displays Night (aka Free) Data on Sri Lanka Telecom’s web portal.
Portal itself has percentages and only day time data. So calculating Night data was a hassle and I made an extension for myself, published on Chrome & Firefox stores only to see 1,000+ users using it island-wide.

Laravel To-Do
This is a web system built for myself for to keep track of my professional work tasks, and display publicly (to the team) so, the task-assigners will know which days are already occupied of me.
PHP Library
A PHP Library named “Curl cURL” that makes using PHP cURL easier via chain->loading(). As the name states, you can “curl” your code into one line rather than defining variables on multiple lines. Checkout the library.

StatfulJS was made to fulfill a need of developers when Twitter-Bootstrap deprecated its button states.
In short, it’s a button with full customization that lets you show “Loading…” when it’s clicked.
I started developing software on 2008. Below are a few I found in the attic.
Back then – when internet was a rare case – friends wanted me to share movies to their pen drives, and I never forgot to include these freeware along. Even though it’s embarrassing to list those beginner work now but, I’m proud of myself for starting so early a carrier that feeds me now.
Being an artist myself, I have created a few Sinhala Fonts along with Unicode versions.
- Noriko San – Japanese style mixed to Sinhala
- Pihatu Thuda – Curvey edged font style
- Piyum Thudu – My handwriting finally became a font
- TNW Music – Makes typing eastern music characters easily
