Frontend Project Showcase – Code and Live Demos

Multiple frontend builds needed a quality bump. Patterns weren’t consistent, forms were long, and mobile behavior felt clunky. We needed to standardize interaction, clean up visuals, and keep performance sharp.

Understanding the project landscape

Why showcasing front-end projects is essential

Many developers struggle to present their work effectively. A cluttered portfolio can obscure the quality of individual projects. We aimed to create a streamlined platform that highlights each project’s strengths while providing clear access to code and live examples.

This app is a full-stack chat app that has a front-end with Tailwind, Zustand, React, and Daisy UI and a back-end of MongoDB, Socket.io, Express, Nodejs, etc.
