Stack

Tools and ecosystem I use day-to-day.

Design

  • Figma, primary design tool (component libraries, variables, dev mode)
  • Figma Make, quick UI prototyping
  • FigJam, workshops, journeys, system diagrams

In code

The system is delivered in code, not just in Figma. I build the tokens, the components and the documentation, the layer a product team builds the app on.

  • TypeScript, typed tokens and component APIs
  • Tailwind v4, token-first styling
  • shadcn/ui, the base primitives I compose from
  • Storybook, component lab and visual regression
  • Fumadocs, the documentation sites
  • Next.js (App Router), the docs and this portfolio

Design Systems

  • Tokens (OKLCH, semantic layers)
  • CVA for variant APIs
  • Radix and Base UI as primitive layers
  • Chromatic for visual regression

AI in the loop

  • Claude Code, paired assistant for the code work
  • Obsidian with RAG and hybrid search, the knowledge base
  • Versioned prompts kept alongside the code
  • Machine-readable docs for agents to consume

Process

  • Turborepo + pnpm monorepo
  • GitHub with Conventional Commits
  • Vercel for deploys
  • Linear for tracking
