Story arc

How this shipped

End-to-end solutions from database to deploymentThree beats: what pressed against the work, how the stack answered, and what changed once it was live.

I · Constraint

The brief

Tracking skill development is abstract. Developers struggle to see progress or identify gaps in their knowledge systematically.

II · Build

The craft

Built D3.js-powered skill graphs with proficiency tracking. Career path mapping shows which skills to prioritize for target roles.

III · Proof

What moved after launch

Visual skill maps make abstract progress tangible. Career paths highlight 3-5 skills to focus on next. Proficiency tracking motivates continuous learning.
