About Julius Legaspi

Who I Am

I'm a frontend engineer with 8+ years of experience building production web applications across industries — from booking platforms and inventory systems to SaaS dashboards and pageant management platforms.

I specialize in TypeScript, React, and Next.js — crafting performant, accessible interfaces that are actually easy to use. I care deeply about UI architecture, clean code, good developer experience, and shipping products that solve real problems.

When I'm not building, I write about the architecture and lessons behind the projects I work on — you can read those over on the blog.

What I Work With

Career Path

From junior programmer at Notre Dame University, through QA and frontend support for the Kolibri learning platform at MrPau Software, to frontend roles at Connect, Lots For Less, Yachtly, MG Software, and now Scaleforge — the thread that runs through my career is a focus on building interfaces that solve real problems for real people.

A few of the systems I'm proudest of: the Yachtly booking platform with Stripe installment subscriptions and Xero accounting integration, and Crown Flow, a multi-tenant pageant management platform handling events, judging, scoring, voting, and awards.

AI-Assisted Development

I use AI-assisted development tools to improve productivity across research, debugging, code exploration, documentation, and repetitive tasks — while maintaining ownership of architecture, code quality, testing, and technical decisions.
