Case Studies

Product Starter Kit case study

This case study examines the conception & implementation of a modular TypeScript React development platform to support the Product Starter kit.

The Product Starter kit includes CI/CD pipelines, testing, automated dependency management and a customizable design system from Figma to React and Vue thru Token Studio.

Projects

A curated collection of frontend tools and experiments, each crafted with TypeScript, Figma, and modern frameworks like React and Vue. These projects reflect my focus on design systems, developer experience, and scalable UI architecture.

Product Starter Kit

A production-ready starter kit with a Figma-to-React and Vue design system flow, Tailwind, CI/CD, and instant Vercel deploy.

Design System

A token‑driven UI library whose look and feel can be tweaked in Figma and—via Token Studio—propagate to React & Vue components

Daily UI Challenge

A curated collection of daily UI challenges, designed in Figma, then implemented in React and Vue.

With a background in Design and Sculpture, I bring a unique perspective to front-end development—blending aesthetics with functionality. My approach is deeply rooted in creating visually engaging and intuitive user experiences, where form meets function in the digital space.

Whether you need a new website, custom illustrations, or just want to chat about your ideas, I am here to help however I can.
