02 How I think Principles

Design is what you see. Engineering is what makes it work.

  1. P/01

    Performance is part of the design.

    Speed is a feature. Lean assets, considered loading, and markup that renders before the scripts arrive.

  2. P/02

    Accessibility is not optional.

    Semantic HTML, keyboard paths, visible focus and real contrast — built in from the start, never bolted on.

  3. P/03

    Details make the difference.

    The easing curve, the hover state, the 320 px breakpoint nobody checks. That is where quality lives.

  4. P/04

    Good code should be maintainable.

    Clean themes and intuitive admin panels, so clients can run their platforms without calling a developer for every change.

  5. P/05

    Every interaction should have a purpose.

    Motion directs attention. If an animation doesn’t help someone understand something, it goes.

05 About Aligarh, India

I build for the details most people never notice.

Black-and-white portrait of Shawab Khan in a dark suit, arms crossed
Shawab KhanFull-stack developer

I’m a full-stack web developer from Aligarh, India, working remotely with teams and clients around the world.

My path started with a B.Com and a Postgraduate Diploma in Computer Programming at Aligarh Muslim University — and a deep curiosity about how digital interfaces connect people. Since 2019 I’ve gone from running web operations at Cyber India Enterprises, to building WordPress sites at Kapable in New Delhi, to developing WordPress and Shopify websites at UMM Digital.

I work in the gap between pixel-perfect design and dependable server-side logic: custom themes, fast front ends, admin panels clients can actually use, and the performance work nobody sees until it’s missing.
