Why

I built Shipped while I was searching for a new job and needed a way to showcase my work. I started by creating a small portfolio on my personal site. But as I worked on it, I realized I didn’t just want to show what I’m capable of. I wanted to show what I want to keep doing — where I choose to focus, what I care about, and what my craft truly is. The goal isn’t just to get hired. It’s to find the right people — the ones who see my work and think, “This is exactly who I want to build this with.” I believe many of us feel this way. We’re not just looking for a job; we’re looking for a place where we can grow into the version of ourselves we envision. A place where we can invest our energy with purpose. And that place can’t be just anywhere. It has to genuinely need you — not just anyone. That’s the vision behind Shipped: helping the right people find each other, build meaningful work together, and create products that feel authentic, motivating, and truly great.

Highlights

  • Early Access - Waiting List

    Early access signup flow with form validation, animated success state, and accessible UX.

  • Intentional design system

    Every color, typography choice, and animation token is deliberate. OKLCH colors, semantic tokens, and a dark theme that feels intentional rather than default.

  • AI usage

    During this Project I used AI to help me mostly with the coding, I´m actively pushing myself to improve my taste and close the gap between what I imagine and what I can build so I did not want to rely on AI too much, I rather used it to either do what I´m confident I can do myself or to learn how to implement certain things but putting the focus on learning and not just have it done for me.
