Giovanni
Frontend Architect
10+ years building production web platforms. Focused on component-driven UI systems with React and Next.js, evolving from WordPress and headless architectures.
What I do
Frontend Architecture
Scalable, maintainable frontend systems with a focus on React and Next.js. Component-driven design and performance optimization for production environments.
Headless & Platform Integration
API-first architectures, CMS integrations and decoupled systems designed to work within larger product ecosystems.
AI-Enhanced Development
Using AI coding systems — Claude Code, Cursor and structured agentic workflows — as core engineering tools. From code generation to architecture decisions, AI integrated at every stage of the build.

Engineering Mindset
I approach web development as system design — balancing aesthetics, performance and long-term maintainability from concept to deployment.
Clarity over complexity.
Systems Thinking
Every project is treated as an evolving system — designed to scale, adapt and remain understandable over time.
Modular by Default
Clear separation of concerns, reusable components and structured codebases built for collaboration.
Performance as Responsibility
Lean builds, efficient assets and careful implementation to ensure fast, reliable user experiences.
Design-Aware Development
Strong sensitivity to layout, typography and interaction — bridging design intent with technical execution.
Pragmatic Tooling
Choosing tools based on project context, not trends. AI coding systems — Claude Code, Cursor, structured prompting and agentic pipelines — are now core to how production-quality work gets shipped.
