Profile

A full-stack profile, comfortable across the entire stack.

Since April 2025 I've been building a business application used in Legrand France's production workshops - internship, then summer job, then apprenticeship, always on the same product. Code that real teams use every day (under NDA, so no details here).

On the side I build my own tools: Nova Design System on npm, a Gitea and its CI on my VPS. Not for the résumé line - because maintaining something over time teaches more than restarting it.

BUT MMI degree (web dev) at IUT du Limousin, and two years at Legrand on the same business application - from internship to apprenticeship.

  • Front-endVue.js at Legrand, Astro on my own projects, TypeScript everywhere. Plus a 29-component in-house design system so nothing gets written twice.
  • Back-endNode and Express in production at Legrand, PostgreSQL for the data.
  • Tools & deploymentMy Gitea, my runners, my Apache, my VPS: when this site deploys, it's my CI running, not someone else's.

Featured projects

A design system, an infra, a Rust tool. And this site.

Three public projects, with their real status - including what is still under construction. Every one of them is open-source on GitHub, no marketing filter.

Nova Design System

  • Color / type / spacing / radius tokens, light-dark theme

File Organizer

Java-to-Rust port of a file organizer, native UI with GPUI.

A Rust rewrite of a file-organizing tool originally built in Java: filesystem watching with `notify`, a native GPUI interface, and an architecture that strictly separates file logic from the UI.

  • Pure filesystem logic, decoupled from the UI
  • Real-time watching with the notify crate
