Dependency Adding 500KB to Bundle Size
A small feature was added via npm package but bundle size increased 500KB. The feature doesn't justify the size increase. Build tools show the dependency is being included but it's rarely used, or lighter alternatives exist.
Adding the dependency solved a problem but created a new one: application loads slower for all users.
Error Messages You Might See
Bundle size warning: 500KB increase
Application load time increased significantly
Entry bundle larger than expected
Common Causes
- Package includes entire library when only one function is needed
- No tree-shaking configuration, entire package included despite partial use
- Dependency has heavy transitive dependencies (dependencies of dependencies)
- Duplicate dependencies at different versions in node_modules
- Development dependency accidentally included in production bundle
How to Fix It
Analyze bundle: webpack-bundle-analyzer, source-map-explorer show what takes space. Check package sizes on bundlephobia.com. Look for lighter alternatives. Use only needed exports: import { func } from 'lib' not import lib. Ensure devDependencies aren't bundled. Deduplicate: npm dedupe. Lazy load heavy dependencies.

15+ years shipping production infrastructure for startups. Former CTO at qed.builders (acquired by The Sandbox).
Cursor ambassador and agentic tooling builder.
I've scaled systems, automated deployments, and built observability tools for AI coding workflows. I specialize in taking vibe-coded apps from broken prototype to production-ready: fixing Supabase auth/RLS, Stripe integrations, deployment pipelines, and cleaning up AI-generated spaghetti.
I build tools in this space (agentprobe, claudebin, micode) and understand both sides: how AI generates code and why it breaks.

I’ve watched the tech landscape evolve over the last decade—from the structured days of Java Server Pages to the current "wild west" of Agentic-driven development. While AI can "vibe" a frontend into existence, I specialize in the architecture that keeps it from collapsing.
My expertise lies in the critical backend infrastructure: the parts that must be fast, secure, and scalable. I thrive on high-pressure environments, such as when I had only three weeks to architect and launch an Ethereum redemption system with minimal prior crypto knowledge, turning it into a major revenue stream.
What I bring to your project:
Forensic Debugging: I don't just "patch" bugs; I use tools like Datadog and Explain Analyzers to map out bottlenecks and resolve root causes—like significantly reducing memory usage by optimizing complex DB joins.
Full-Stack Context: Deep experience in Node.js and React, ensuring backends play perfectly with mobile and web teams.
Sanity in the Age of AI: I bridge the gap between "best practices" and modern speed, ensuring your project isn't just built fast, but built to last.

’m a Senior Full-Stack Developer and Tech Lead with experience designing and building scalable web platforms. I work across the full development lifecycle, from translating business requirements into technical architecture to delivering reliable production systems.
My work focuses on modern web technologies, including TypeScript, Angular, Node.js, and cloud-based architectures. I enjoy solving complex technical problems and helping teams turn product ideas and prototypes into working platforms that can grow and scale.
In addition to development, I often collaborate closely with product managers, business analysts, designers, and QA teams to ensure that solutions align with both technical and business goals.
I enjoy working with startups and product teams where I can contribute both as a hands-on engineer and as a technical partner in designing and delivering impactful software.

I'm a full-stack developer focused on building practical and scalable web applications. My main experience is with **React, TypeScript, and modern frontend architectures**, where I prioritize clean code, component reusability, and maintainable project structures.
I have strong experience working with **dynamic forms, state management (Redux / React Hook Form), and complex data-driven interfaces**. I enjoy solving real-world problems by turning ideas into reliable software that companies can actually use in their daily operations.
Beyond coding, I care about **software quality and architecture**, following best practices for componentization, code organization, and performance optimization.
I'm also comfortable working across the stack when needed, integrating APIs, handling business logic, and helping transform prototypes into production-ready systems.
My goal is always to deliver solutions that are **simple, efficient, and genuinely useful for the people using them.**
You don't need to be technical. Just describe what's wrong and a verified developer will handle the rest.
Get HelpFrequently Asked Questions
How to analyze what's in the bundle?
Use webpack-bundle-analyzer (webpack-bundle-analyzer plugin) or source-map-explorer. Visualizes what takes space.
Should all dependencies be in package.json?
devDependencies for build tools, testing. dependencies for runtime. Never mix them.
How to reduce dependency size?
Use lighter alternatives (lodash-es instead of lodash). Lazy load: const lib = () => import('heavy-lib'). Tree-shake unused code.
