Full-Stack Web Engineering

7+ years shipping production web products end-to-end in TypeScript - Nuxt 3 and Next.js on the front, Node / Express on the back, and the AWS + Docker delivery pipeline tying it together. This page tracks the web engineering work itself: typed boundaries from DB to UI, component patterns that hold up as features pile on, and the freelance and open-source builds along the way.
