David Szucs
@davidszucs
Senior frontend developer at Zappar who shaped Mattercraft’s XR editor and built its browser-based animation timeline.
What I'm looking for
At Zappar, I was responsible for the user interface of Mattercraft, a browser-based XR authoring tool. I worked on resizable editor panels around a live 3D viewport, and built a timeline editor with motion curves and motion blending.
As a Frontend Developer at Inspekto, I built the React interface for an autonomous machine-vision system, including a zoomable polygon editor for mapping inspection regions. I pushed the number of drawable polygons to the limits of what the browser could handle.
Since 2011, I’ve worked remotely on production React and TypeScript builds, WebGL and creative web projects. Since 2025, agentic development with Claude Code and issue-driven GitHub workflows has been part of my freelance practice; I review every diff and keep architecture and visual craft in my hands.
