01 / About

How I work

I ask questions before I start writing code.

Before choosing a framework, I want to know who uses the feature, what data it needs, and what can go wrong. That saves time later.

I work mostly with Python and TypeScript, but I will use another tool when it fits the job better. Clear APIs, useful documentation, and a deployable app matter more than a favourite framework.

  1. Ask

    01 / 04

    Understand the feature before choosing tools.

    I ask who uses the feature, what changes, and what must not break.

  2. Plan

    02 / 04

    Write down the data and API behaviour.

    I define the data, state changes, API responses, and documentation before I start building.

  3. Build

    03 / 04

    Make the behaviour predictable.

    I keep the database, services, and frontend consistent when requirements change.

  4. Deploy

    04 / 04

    Plan deployment while building.

    I include Docker, deployment notes, and documentation in the project work.
