These road signs are iconic. They’re noticeable but not distracting. They inform without imposing themselves. There’s something very soothing about them. If you’ve ever taken the A…

The website feels quite sluggish, especially when hovering color palettes. There's some missing CSS optimization here. And I'm not sure what the point is linking to a Github repo t…

Interesting. I used Expo recently and loved the development experience. I also built a simple iPhone app with Swift, and it was a decent experience. I have plans of building anothe…
