I'm Syed Mohamad Arif, a dedicated Frontend Developer based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with 4+ years of experience specializing in React Native for mobile apps and React for web platforms.
I work across the full product lifecycle, from UI/UX design and prototyping to development, testing, and deployment. Skilled in Git, CI/CD, and Agile practices, I build scalable features that enhance user experience and business value. With a strong eye for design and proficiency in Figma and Adobe tools, I bridge the gap between design and engineering to deliver intuitive interfaces.

My Process
A clear path from idea to production — collaborative, transparent, and shippable at every step
🎨01
Design
Wireframes and high-fidelity prototypes in Figma. Clarify the problem, validate the flow, and lock in the visual language before a single line of code.

Development
Typed, modular, version-controlled code with Git-based reviews and preview deployments. Frequent demos so you see progress every sprint.

What You'll Need
Every project ships with its own stack of services. Here's what I set up — and what it costs you to run — across domain, hosting, database, and mobile build.
🌍
Domain
Your name on the web. I help register, configure DNS, set up SSL, and wire up email forwarding.

Web Hosting
Global edge delivery with preview URLs on every commit. Vercel is my default for React and Next.js.
