Founder & Lead Researcher Civil Engineer Solo Developer

Civil engineer, developer, and creator of HolidayExplore. I love building useful websites and tools, exploring new technologies, and learning about different countries, their holidays, traditions, and cultures. HolidayExplore is where those interests come together.

Engineering Discipline Meets Solo Web Craft

My background is in civil engineering, where accuracy, careful planning, and attention to detail are part of everyday work. I bring that same mindset to building websites, tools, and digital projects.

I'm curious about both technology and the world around me. I love developing websites and useful tools, experimenting with new ideas, and figuring out how things work. I also enjoy exploring different places and learning about their holidays, traditions, calendars, and everyday life.

HolidayExplore brings those interests together. I build practical tools and research holiday information to make it easier to explore dates, plan ahead, and learn something along the way.

As an independent developer, I built HolidayExplore from the ground up, combining my interests in technology, engineering, travel, and research.

Statutory Provenance
Every public holiday dossier is verified directly against official government gazettes, national labour codes, and central bank operating circulars.
Zero-Framework Edge Speed
Built purely with semantic HTML5, pure CSS, and vanilla ES6. Pre-compiled to clean static files served globally across Cloudflare Pages edge nodes.
Operational Disambiguation
Explicit distinction between public holidays, bank settlement pauses (RTGS/Fedwire/TARGET2), and equity market trading hours.
Handcrafted Editorial Standards
Zero automated AI filler text. Every planning guide, formula explanation, and FAQ is researched, written, and maintained by hand.

Direct Reader Accountability & Corrections

Public holiday schedules and workplace penalty rates evolve when state parliaments pass legislative amendments or when central banks adjust settlement timetables. Maintaining 42 sovereign jurisdictions requires vigilance and direct accountability.

If you are a payroll manager, treasury officer, or legal practitioner and notice a recent statutory update or regional amendment, you can contact me directly at sahin@holidayexplore.com. Corrections are reviewed personally and deployed within 24 hours.
