Background

Buoy is a floating browser window for multitasking and productivity. It allows you to keep content afloat so you can focus on the work in front of you without having to rely on the (cmd + tab) or (ctrl + tab) we are all so used to. I starting building this during the pandemic for students and remote workers to replace the popular sunset app Helium. Buoy is currently in Beta while the bugs get squashed. The main reason I have chosen to put this on my portfolio is to showcase the marketing landing page I built, which you can view below.
