About Me
Hey there! I'm Alex Morgan — Frontend engineer and creative developer fascinated by the craft of building blazingly fast web apps, liquid glass design systems, and resilient software architectures.
My Engineering Philosophy
I started this blog as my personal digital garden—a place to document experiments, architectural patterns, and lessons learned while crafting modern web applications.
I believe that a modern website should feel instantaneous, tactile, and visually delightful. In an era where web apps often ship megabytes of unnecessary JavaScript runtimes, I advocate for content-first static delivery with selective island hydration.
What I Focus On
Speed & Zero-JS
Shipping ultra-lightweight static HTML first, hydrating only when client interactivity is strictly required.
Liquid Glass Design
Crafting translucent, refractive spatial UI with specular highlights and GPU-accelerated blur effects.
Type Safety & Domain Invariants
Eliminating entire categories of runtime bugs using compiler-enforced discriminated unions and pure functions.
60fps Micro-Interactions
Building responsive spring physics, compositor animations, and tactile interactive feedback.
My Daily Tech Arsenal
Islands architecture, server islands, and zero-JS defaults
Strict domain models, algebraic types, and nominal branding
Liquid Glass design system, modern gradients & CSS tokens
Instant hot-reloading and lightning-fast static indexing
Isolated reactive client components when state is required
Distributed low-latency deployment at the CDN edge
