Notes on React, TypeScript, and shipping frontend systems - written between client work.
storybook-web-react-native-guide-2026.mdx
Storybook is more than a component gallery. It is a small, repeatable environment for building UI, documenting states, and testing the parts of an interface that are hardest to reach in the app. Here is how I use it on the web and in React Native.
legacy-game-rethinking-2026.mdx
A 2019 browser game was rebuilt in 2026 with a cleaner structure, fixed-step simulation, and a WebAssembly hot path. The goal was not to make it look nicer. It was to make it easier to reason about, evolve, and debug.
native-javascript-2026.mdx
Cloning objects, updating arrays without mutating them, working with dates, checking equality — JavaScript quietly grew its own standard library. Here's what you can now do without a dependency, and what you still can't.
react-in-2026.mdx
The compiler removed most manual memoization. Server Components stopped being controversial. And the line between "React" and "your framework" almost disappeared. Notes from a frontend engineer who has lived through this shift.
ai-coding-assistants-2026.mdx
Autocomplete grew into an agent that reads your codebase, runs your tests, and opens a pull request. Some of that is genuinely useful. Some of it is a new way to ship bugs faster. Notes from daily use of Claude Code, Copilot, and Codex.
react-native-real-world-2026.mdx
React Native is easy to start, but the hard part is not writing components. It is building a shared UI system that still feels native, works across platforms, and survives real product pressure.
