Frontend performance work across a micro-frontend React application.
git show · 6 changes
- Collaborated on performance improvements that took initial page load from 25–30s to ~1.5s and cut build time by ~35%.
- Eliminated legacy React Native dependencies from a web-only codebase with web-native replacements and Webpack module aliases.
- Built a custom NX executor plugin to bypass NX's wrapped Webpack — unlocking full control over HMR, chunk splitting, and loaders.
- Fixed build mode from development to production across all deploy environments, enabling minification and dead-code removal.
- Rolled out route- and component-level lazy loading across all remote apps, helping cut the initial JS payload by over 50%.
- Revamped the Analytics Dashboard, Threads, and internal tools UI/UX using Claude Code and Figma MCP.
