Software that listens.
What I build

Next.js · Supabase Healthcare techPractice management, clinical documentation, medical aid billing. POPIA-compliant.
Medikredit · ICD-10 System overhaulOutgrown your current system? Your data migrated, your workflow preserved.

Not mockups. Systems people use every day.
Nightingale Health
Complete practice management for wound care specialists. Patient records, clinical documentation, billing, and AI-assisted note-taking.
In production · nghealth.co.za
Hearts in Scrubs
Full clinical practice management for a wound care specialist — patient records, wound assessments, WhatsApp patient bot, AI clinical scribe, billing, and medical aid claims.
In production · heartsinscrubs.co.zaAs a wound care nurse, I'm on my feet all day — I don't have the time or energy to sit at a computer afterhours to catch up on documentation. Nightingale Health was built for how I actually work. I capture wound assessments on my phone or iPad, notes sync instantly, and I can pull up a patient's full wound history, invoices and photos in seconds — wherever I am. It feels like it was made by someone who understands the needs of a wound care nurse.
Hopely
SaaS for South African non-profits to issue and track Section 18A tax donation certificates. Integrated payments, PDF generation, donor management.
In production · hopely.co.zaWhat sets Hopely apart is the personal support. When I have a question, I message Christo directly and get an answer — not a chatbot, not a support ticket that disappears into a queue. For a small non-profit like ours, that kind of relationship matters. We feel like a priority, not a number.
Mosaic Accounting
Professional website for a Paarl-based accounting and tax services firm. Fast, clean, built to convert.
In production · mosaicat.co.zaWe'd recommend Christo from Yellow Archer to anyone looking for a reliable and excellent website developer. He worked quickly, kept us in the loop the whole way, and was patient with us when we needed changes or took time to decide on a layout and get all our information together. It felt easy working with him as a startup company, and we're really happy with the end result.
High 5 Cleaning
Corporate cleaning, hygiene, and consumables services for the Cape Winelands. 160+ staff, 100+ active contracts. Brochure site with contact and careers board.
In production · high5cleaning.co.za
32 on Herold Holidays
Mauritius travel agency with live hotel and flight quotes powered by the Beachcomber API. Package enquiries, newsletter, and real-time availability search.
In production · 32onh.co.zaChristo from Yellow Archer is truly the best in the business. After struggling for months with another company to get our travel agency website off the ground, we finally connected with Christo — and what a difference! We explained our needs and how the website should look, feel, and operate. Within just a few days, we were up and running with a live site that required minimal changes from our side. Everything was seamless, professional, and smooth sailing from start to finish.
Brackenhurst Bowling Club
Club website and competition management for a lawn bowls club in Alberton. Public entry forms, knockout draws, match-day scheduling, a members area, and a committee CMS for every page on the site.
In production · bbcbowls.co.za
BowlsTracker
Lawn bowls practice tracking and club platform. Bowl-by-bowl accuracy analytics, live match scoring from singles to fours, club management, and competition draws. Mobile-first progressive web app.
In production · bowlstracker.co.zaHow it works
From brief to production in weeks.
Discovery call
Thirty minutes. You explain the problem, I confirm I can solve it. No sales deck, no procurement hoops.
Rapid build
Your MVP in two to four weeks. You see progress daily, not quarterly.
Iterate & launch
Real feedback drives changes. Features ship same-day until it is exactly right.
Ongoing support
A direct line to the developer. Predictable monthly cost. Changes when you need them.
The obvious question
"You're one person. What happens if you're not around?"
Fair question, and it has a written answer. Every system lives in version control with current documentation, runs on standard hosting, and has two named people holding standing instructions to hand your code and accounts to whoever you choose.
You hired one developer, but you were never betting on one heartbeat.
Who you'd be working with
One developer. Twenty-eight years. No bureaucracy.
I'm Christo Swanepoel. I've spent nearly three decades building enterprise software — from Vodacom-scale systems to healthcare platforms used daily across South Africa.
I don't run an agency. There's no account manager between you and the person writing the code. AI lets me build faster than ever; experience makes sure it's built right. You get both — and you own the result.
Questions
Frequently asked.
We orchestrate AI coding agents with 28+ years of enterprise development experience. The AI accelerates the build; the experience ensures it's production-ready. But once delivered, your system has zero AI dependency — it's clean, maintainable code.
An MVP can be ready in 2-4 weeks. Feature additions often ship next-day. We don't do six-month roadmaps — we do results.
You get direct support from me. Not a call centre, not a ticketing system. One person who built your system and knows every line of code. Changes and updates are fast because there's no bureaucracy.
Healthcare is where we've proven the model with Nightingale Health, but our approach works for any industry. If you need custom software that actually does what you need — and changes when you need it to — we're your team.
