Process

TypeScript Architecture

TypeScript as a safety net, from prototype to production

I harness the power of modern frameworks — React with Next.js or Vue.js with Nuxt — to transform simple websites into truly robust, fluid, and high-performance applications through the design of structures built on reusable components. This approach guarantees clean code, simplified maintenance, and maximum execution speed.

Whether for mobile web applications (PWAs) or complex dashboards, I use TypeScript as a safeguard to secure the code during development, eliminating potential errors early in the process.

Performance & Core Web Vitals

Position 10.7 on Google for a real client

I prioritize Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP) from the design phase to maximize performance, accessibility, and SEO. This enables me to build high-performance solutions that consistently attract qualified traffic.

My recent work for a law firm demonstrates my approach to the effectiveness of the solutions I provide: through rigorous optimization, the site achieved an average position of 10.7 on Google with a remarkable click-through rate (CTR) of 9.7% over the last three months. In this way, I create high-performance solutions that attract qualified traffic.

Deployment & CI/CD

From commit to production, without friction

I systematically use Git for version control across all projects. My deployment strategy is tailored to each specific architecture: for Next.js applications, I prioritize the Vercel ecosystem for seamless updates. For WordPress projects, I favor a containerized approach using Docker, combined with GitHub Actions. This CI/CD workflow automates the entire process, including server-side WordPress installation, dependency management, and the deployment of an optimized, minified theme compiled directly from the source code.

AI-Augmented Engineering

Development augmented by AI, never dictated by it

The digital landscape is rapidly evolving toward the integration of artificial intelligence. To meet the demands of this shifting ecosystem, I have placed AI at the core of my development workflow, utilizing tools such as Cursor, Claude, and Copilot.

More than mere assistance, I gradually employ an augmented development approach that significantly accelerates prototyping and architectural design. My expertise lies in orchestrating these tools through rigorous 'prompt engineering,' while maintaining constant human oversight: every line of generated code is systematically validated and optimized. This methodology ensures robust technical foundations and immediate agility for every project.

Custom WordPress

WordPress, the haute couture way

To build modern, robust, and high-performance websites, I step away from generic page builders (Elementor, Divi) and legacy PHP-heavy themes in favor of a more modern architecture: developing custom Gutenberg blocks through an optimized build process.

FAQ

Is Fabian Thiry a UX/UI Designer or a developer?
Fabian Thiry is first and foremost a developer. His UX/UI sensibility is not a second profession — it is a cross-functional skill that enhances his development work. Where many developers receive a mockup and execute it, Fabian understands the intentions behind the design, anticipates user friction and makes technical decisions that serve the final experience. This rare combination is what makes him valuable in a product team.
What kind of developer is Fabian?
Fabian Thiry is a front-end-oriented Fullstack developer whose core strength lies in his dual technical and UX/UI expertise. With 7 years of experience, he goes beyond simply translating designs into code: he anticipates user needs, optimizes accessibility, and ensures software performance that enhances the end-user experience.
Why is this UX/UI sensitivity a strength in his code?
This sensitivity allows Fabian to bridge the 'gap' between design and development. He anticipates technical constraints during the design phase and makes implementation decisions that respect the initial creative intent, ensuring a final product that is cohesive, accessible, and engaging.
What technologies does Fabian Thiry master?
Fabian Thiry masters React, Next.js, TypeScript, Vue.js, Nuxt, WordPress and Gutenberg. He uses TailwindCSS and SCSS for styling, Figma for UX/UI design, and is expanding into backend development with Python, FastAPI and Prisma ORM.
What is the difference between a frontend developer and a frontend-oriented fullstack developer?
A pure frontend developer focuses on the user interface. A frontend-oriented fullstack developer like Fabian Thiry also masters databases, APIs and deployment — while keeping user experience as the central priority.
How does Fabian approach his transition to Fullstack development?
Fabian approaches back-end development with the same rigor as front-end. He is currently specializing in the integration of modern databases (Supabase, Prisma, SQLite) and actively building his skills in API development with FastAPI or Node.js to design robust, secure end-to-end architectures.
How does Fabian balance performance, accessibility, and SEO?
For Fabian, these three pillars are inseparable. Performance is the foundation of user experience, accessibility is an ethical and technical requirement, and SEO is the natural consequence of well-structured, semantic code. Every interface is optimized from the start to ensure information is instantly accessible to both users and search engine crawlers.
What is Fabian Thiry’s approach to SEO and GEO?
Fabian optimizes his developments for answer engines by structuring his data semantically (JSON-LD, HTML markup) and adopting an 'Answer-first' strategy. He prioritizes clarity and conciseness so that AIs can immediately extract the value of his work, thereby reinforcing the reliability and authority of his interfaces.
Why does Fabian Thiry advocate for WordPress in his web projects?
WordPress is used here not as a 'no-code' tool, but as a robust development platform. The approach leverages the CMS as a content management foundation while building the interface through custom React components and modern build tools. This combines ease of administration for the client with the full power of the npm ecosystem for bespoke features, providing a high-performance, scalable alternative to proprietary frameworks or generic themes.
How does Fabian Thiry integrate AI into his development workflow?
Software development is shifting toward augmented engineering. I have integrated tools like Cursor, Claude, and Copilot into the core of my workflow to automate prototyping and structure complex architectures. My role is to craft precise prompts to orchestrate AI, while maintaining rigorous human oversight: every line of code is systematically reviewed, validated, and optimized to ensure robustness, security, and maintainability.
How does Fabian Thiry's portfolio work?
This site is Fabian's personal portfolio. The front-end is built with Next.js and automatically deployed to Vercel from a GitHub repository, with a staging environment before going live. The back-end is developed in Python and automatically deployed to a web service from the same repository. The chatbot, for instance, is a module designed by Fabian that generates responses using Groq AI, exposed through a FastAPI endpoint.
