02Tools & practice

The stack, connected.

Technologies and patterns I use to build production-ready web applications.

01

Frontend

Clean, modern and maintainable interfaces.

  • React
  • Next.js
  • TypeScript
  • Tailwind CSS
  • shadcn/ui
02

Backend

Robust APIs, business logic and data handling.

  • NestJS
  • Node.js
  • Prisma
  • PostgreSQL
03

Architecture

Structured, typed and scalable systems.

  • Monorepo
  • Zod validation
  • API design
  • Socket.IO / WebSockets
  • E2E testing

Shared types and validation keep the interface and API contracts aligned.

03A little about me

From the interface to the system.

I’m Olivier, a full-stack developer trained at 42 Perpignan. I build web products end to end, from frontend interfaces to backend architecture, business rules and data.

My previous experience in project and team management shapes the way I approach software: understand the product first, make complex workflows clear, and build systems that remain maintainable as they grow.

My focus
  • Typed full-stack architecture
  • Complex business workflows
  • Real-time applications
