About me
Story
I've been writing code for several years now, working across both frontend and backend. My focus is on creating products that balance clean design, solid architecture, and great user experience.
I care about clarity, simplicity, and craftsmanship — not just in code, but in how things feel to use. I like tools that are lightweight and flexible, and I believe that the best products are the ones that stay out of the user's way.
Hey — I'm John, a full-stack developer who loves turning ideas into real, working products. I enjoy the craft of building — the small details that make software feel thoughtful, fast, and alive.

Even with frameworks evolving every month, I keep coming back to plain JavaScript. There's something pure about writing logic that runs instantly in the browser — no setup, no build step, just you and the code.
Nov 1, 2025Thinking in components
Building modern interfaces isn't about pages anymore — it's about systems. Thinking in components changes how you design, code, and even debug. Once you get it, you'll never build the same way again.
