Welcome to Scalable UI, where I delve into the essential elements of creating scalable and high-performing user interfaces in a straightforward and precise manner.

Prerequisites?

Essential Web Skills (HTML, CSS, JS), React, Typescript.

What?

This isn't your beginner's guide to frontend development. Instead, it's tailored for engineers familiar with core web technologies, who have built small-scale projects and seek to expand their understanding to tackle large-scale products.

Why Am I doing this?

Embarking on scaling UI development, I encountered a plethora of concepts without a centralized resource offering comprehensive guidance with accessible examples. This blog aims to bridge that gap, benefiting both readers and myself.
