Nine years building commerce storefronts, custom CMS platforms and multilingual products — for the teams who have to run them after launch.
Isaac Solomon.
chapter one
Client builds and side projects — each one pushed the work further than the brief required. Storefronts, content systems and a national talent platform.
01 · 2026 · Philanthropy · EdTech
National talent platform for Godrej Foundation.
Frontend developer — the public site: pathway pages, the registration hand-off, WhatsApp onboarding and the enquiry form, on SvelteKit and Cloudflare.
Four student pathways, and an aptitude assessment in 11 languages.

02 · 2019 – 2023 · EdTech · LMS
Learning platform for special educators teaching children with Down syndrome.
A 65-feature roadmap shipped across six releases, through a full framework rewrite.
Day one to handoff across four years — frontend on V1, then product manager and the person extending the design system on V2.
03 · 2025 – 2026 · Philanthropy
Website and CMS for Godrej Foundation, the philanthropic trust of the Godrej Group, founded in 1897 — built in SvelteKit and Tailwind.
A full corporate rebrand, with zero content migration.
Frontend developer — the whole frontend from their designs, wired to Able.do's Apex CMS and modelled for their editors.
04 · 2018 – 2022 · E-Commerce
Custom storefront for India's first audio manufacturing brand.
100,000+ customers and 10,000+ orders managed natively after the migration.
Frontend developer from the first build to the platform migration — storefront UI, live cart and transactional mailers.
and a few more —
chapter two
The part after launch is the part I am good at: a rebrand with zero content migration, a storefront built for three to four launches a day, one product carried from day one to handoff.
I'm a frontend developer at Able.do, where I have built commerce storefronts, content systems and multilingual products since 2017 — including Mivi's storefront and a national talent platform with an aptitude assessment in eleven languages.
What a team is left with matters more to me than the launch: content models that survive a rebrand, component systems a non-technical team runs without me, and scroll-driven work that is budgeted and measured like any other asset rather than bolted on at the end.
and where the years went —
2017 — Now
Nine years building and shipping client products — e-commerce platforms, custom CMS systems, component libraries and design systems. Led the frontend for Mivi, Vibrant Living and a dozen other builds from first commit to production. Since mid-2026 the work has widened into QA automation, the processes that keep delivery accountable, and technical writing.
2016 — 2017
Learned the craft the honest way — code reviews, broken builds and very patient mentors. Left the internship knowing why things work, not just that they do.
Since 2026 I also take freelance work part-time, alongside Able.do.
chapter three
Storefronts where product pages, carts and mailers come from one component system, so launch days do not need a rebuild.

chapter four
The case studies live with each project above. These are the essays and deep dives that came out of them.
all writing (8)Essay · SAUT · 7 min
How four years on one product turned a frontend developer into a product manager and stand-in designer, when the design studio couldn't keep pace — and why each role made the others better.

A drag-and-drop canvas for special educators to build pixel-perfect printable A4 worksheets — flashcards, shapes and multiple artboards, in a browser.
