Michael Festus
@michaelfestus
Frontend developer specializing in SvelteKit, building products from idea to deployment.
What I'm looking for
I am a frontend developer who moves fast, solves problems, and takes full ownership of what I build. My core frontend stack is SvelteKit and Reactjs, supported by TypeScript, TailwindCSS, HTML and CSS, with Node.js on the backend.
I have shipped multiple products and features solo in fast-paced startup environments, including authentication systems, booking and payment flows, and ERP and webshop frontends. I deploy and maintain apps on platforms such as DigitalOcean and Netlify and work with Supabase and Firebase for backend services.
My approach focuses on translating ideas into shipped features quickly, owning end-to-end development from design to deployment, and building reliable, user-focused interfaces that scale.
