My Projects:
Primitivo is a JavaScript library for SVG that renders and transitions a unit (card, blob, page). My goal was to create a more versatile building block akin to a new "div" that utilizes all the possibilities SVG offers. Through my work on Primitivo, I have pioneered SVG Phased Transition and Space Layer technologies. Both of these innovations enable the creation of complex transitions natively, offering improved performance without the need for JavaScript. None of the existing SVG libraries offer such features.

RUDL is a library to create drag and drop layouts for React. It creates seamless transitions between different layouts and states.

Redfish Boilerplate Jamstack Web Application. It consists of the landing page, Google Keep clone application, and the server. It could be used to start MVPs or as an example.
