The web development landscape has evolved dramatically over the past few years. In this article, we explore the key principles that guide our approach to building modern web applications.
The Foundation: Performance First
Performance isn't just a feature—it's the foundation of a great user experience. Studies show that users abandon sites that take longer than 3 seconds to load. That's why we prioritize:
- Server-side rendering for fast initial page loads
- Progressive enhancement for resilient experiences
- Code splitting to minimize initial bundle sizes
- Image optimization and lazy loading
Developer Experience Matters
Happy developers build better products. We choose tools that provide excellent developer experience without sacrificing end-user performance:
- SvelteKit for its simplicity and performance
- TypeScript for type safety and better tooling
- Tailwind CSS for rapid, consistent styling
Looking Forward
The web platform continues to evolve with new APIs and capabilities. We stay current with emerging standards while maintaining a pragmatic approach—adopting new technologies when they provide clear benefits to our users.
