Starting a web app used to feel like starting from scratch. Now, I have a system that makes it faster, here’s how.

In 2022, most of my effort went into setting up structure, styling systems, UI primitives, repeated logic. Tools like styled-components and Radix gave flexibility, and back then, that already felt powerful.

But something clearly shifted.

Reusable code blocks stopped being “nice to have” and became the default. With ecosystems like shadcn, solid hooks, and copy-paste friendly components, building optimized web apps today feels very different.

Now, instead of rebuilding, I mostly assemble proven pieces, refine behavior, and focus on product and performance. Shipping is faster. Coding is more fun.

That mindset is also what pushed me to start building things that compound — hooks, utilities, and patterns that grow with every real project.
