Hello, I am Giuliano Varriale, an experienced frontend developer who loves the art of crafting digital products.
I'm a software developer specialized in frontend with over 15 years of experience. For over a decade, I've helped companies to implement pixel-perfect, accessible and performant user interfaces. I balance speed with quality and work through small iterations to ensure steady progress.
Regarding my tech stack, I primarily work with TypeScript, React, Tailwind CSS, Next.js and Node.js. For automated testing, I use Vitest with React Testing Library for unit and integration tests, and Cypress for end-to-end tests. These are the technologies I use daily and am highly proficient in, but I stay up to date and open to new technologies to ensure I always use the best tools for the job.
I'm a strong advocate of asynchronous communication and believe that most meetings can be replaced with well-structured documentation and async communication tools.
