CircuitCoder designs, builds and rescues software for small and mid-sized companies: web and mobile apps, integrations between the tools you already use, and dashboards from your data.
Most projects start with one of these. Many end up touching two or three.
New web and mobile products, from rough idea to shipped release, with working software to try every week or two.
Inherited a half-finished app, or code the last developer walked away from? We get it running, then finish or rebuild what needs it.
Android apps for your customers or your team in the field: camera scanning, notifications, and data that works offline.
Connect the software you already pay for, so nobody copies data between the ERP, spreadsheets and inbox by hand.
Production, sales or sensor data in one place, turned into dashboards people check and forecasts you can plan around.
Firmware for ESP32 and PIC32 microcontrollers, plus the web and desktop apps that talk to them.
Apex Instruments' XD-502 logs more than a dozen sensors during EPA smokestack tests. We built a web app into the console, so technicians can run, calibrate and download a test from any phone or laptop.
A ground-up firmware and software rewrite for Apex Instruments' next-generation sampling console, with a simulator that tests it all before the hardware arrives.
Apps and learning resources we design, build and maintain ourselves.
A daily accountability app. Check off the goals that make a good day and build streaks, XP and levels, with 16 multi-week programs such as a 9-week 5K plan.
A collection tracker for Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. Scan a card with the camera and Binder finds the exact printing and tracks its price daily.
A free, hands-on course in electronics and programming, from a first blinking LED on an ESP32 to a line-following robot.
A free 30-minute call about the problem, not the technology. You get an honest read on whether custom software is worth it for you.
A short written plan covering what gets built, what it costs and when it lands.
You see working software every week or two, so priorities can shift as we learn.
Deployment, documentation and a handover your team can follow, with ongoing support if you want it.
CircuitCoder is a software development studio in Raleigh, North Carolina. We work with companies that don't have a software team of their own, or whose team is stretched thin, and we stay on after launch.
Nicholas studied computer science at NC State and UNC Asheville, graduating in 2025, with undergraduate research comparing neural network architectures for predicting time-series data.
He has since built firmware and web software for Apex Instruments' emissions-testing equipment, the studio's own Android apps, and a free MicroPython course. He's at his best taking a product from idea to release, or picking up a project someone else left unfinished.
He works in Python, JavaScript, Kotlin, Java, C, C++ and PHP, and every CircuitCoder project is scoped and led by him personally.
A new logic puzzle every day and a newsletter every week. Both free, with no account needed.
Set the switches so the lamp lights. Exactly one setting works, and you get six tries.
Play today's circuitWhy one button press counts as five. News on AI, software and engineering, one practical lesson, and a quiz to finish.
