From Bubble to Full-Stack: How I Started Building Real Products
My journey into web development started with a Bubble certification - I saw an ad for a no-code course, signed up, and realized I loved building things that actually work.
But Bubble quickly felt limiting. I wanted more control, faster builds, real code. So I made the jump to Next.js, Supabase, and TypeScript - and never looked back.
Today I build production-ready web apps in 7 to 14 days. SaaS platforms, marketplaces, client management systems. From idea to deployed product, start to finish.
The Bubble cert is still on my wall. It's where it started.

9 years of design. First Contra Labs project. Here's what happened.
A week ago I got accepted into Contra Labs as a Brand Designer. This week I completed my first paid project through it.
What's changed since my last post:
Discovery score is now 122, top 5% of creatives overall
Completed my first paid, on-platform project through Contra
What I've learned this round:
Reviews and a complete profile get you seen, but an actual completed project on the platform is a different kind of proof. That was the piece genuinely missing before this.
What I do:
Still a one-person studio. Brand identity, packaging design with production-ready files and 3D mockups, and full website builds, handled end to end so nothing gets lost between design and execution.
Based in Karachi, working with clients globally. Genuinely happy to give back here too, if you're working on your Contra profile and want a second pair of eyes on it, case studies, services, positioning, whatever's not landing, send it over and I'll help however I can.
Congratulations on this achievement. So I would like to take up your offer on getting a second pair of eyes on my Contra profile. Can you check it and give me an honest feedback? Thanks

An orange and dark slate color scheme for a construction company website? Absolute classic, it immediately screams 'we build stuff that lasts!' 🏗️ Clean execution, Vaskrsije!
