Full-Stack Web Developer
I build websites and internal tools for organizations — and automate the manual work behind them.
Hi, I'm Akeel Salman— I build fast, reliable web apps and the automation behind them. I've shipped two production systems for a community organization, solo — and I'm open to freelance work.

A few things I've built
Iman Islamic Center (IIC)
↗A bilingual (English/Arabic, full RTL) website serving an Islamic community center — prayer times, events, online donations, and service applications. Built solo with React and a serverless backend, with an automated test suite that checks every page across languages and screen sizes before each release.

Iman Connect
InternalAn internal operations portal that replaced the board's manual paper-and-email workflows — purchase approvals, reimbursements, volunteer scheduling, and donation reporting, all secured behind Google sign-in. Built end to end, solo.

A little about me
I'm a self-taught developer with a strong foundation in computer systems. Over the past few years I've taught myself to build complete web applications — and, just as importantly, to understand the real-world workflows behind them, so what I build actually fits how people work.
Beyond writing code, I've taught programming and IT skills to students and professionals. That teaching background shapes how I work with clients: I listen first, break the problem down, and explain things in plain language — no jargon, no guesswork.
Kind words
We handed Akeel the whole vision for bringing our center online, and he brought it to life. He built us a complete website in both English and Arabic where families can give, ask the imam a question, request a fatwa, and register and pay online for the adult classes I teach. He carried the entire project himself, with patience and integrity, and gave our center a home online that truly reflects who we are.
Behind the scenes, Akeel transformed how our board actually runs. The stacks of paperwork and manual tracking we used to rely on are gone — he moved all of it into a single internal portal that keeps our operations organized and saves us hours every week. He was reliable and easy to work with from start to finish, and delivered the whole system, website and portal alike, entirely on his own.
Akeel gave our community a real way to connect with the center. Members can volunteer, book a visit, and stay on top of every announcement, and the site tells our story — our mission, our journey, and where we're headed — to both our English- and Arabic-speaking families. He understood what our community needed before we asked, and delivered every piece of it himself.
