New here, so a quick intro.
I'm Ala, a full-stack engineer based in Monastir, Tunisia. 5+ years building production web apps and AI systems end to end, from frontend and backend to database and deployment.
Day to day I'm a core engineer on RetainYourBrain, a US digital health platform with 25,000+ active users. I also architected NORA, an AI legal document platform used by law firms in Belgium and the Netherlands, with a RAG knowledge base that answers questions from your own documents and cites the source.
On the side I build my own products. MenuMate is a SaaS I designed, built and launched for restaurants, covering digital menus, QR codes and real-time ordering.
What I take on here.
Full-stack web apps and SaaS MVPs, with React, Next.js, Node and FastAPI
E-commerce stores, either Shopify or custom Next.js
Landing pages that convert, fully responsive
React Native mobile apps for iOS and Android
Portfolio and live demos at https://www.alabaganne.com
If you're building something and want an honest read on how I'd approach it and what it would take, my DMs are open.

I've been quietly building landing page templates. Six are out today, each with its own brand, its own type pairing and one interaction it's built around:
→ Aurel: a skincare brand with a WebGL serum drop that bulges toward your cursor
→ Ferro Type: a type foundry where the hero word bends its weight and width under the pointer
→ Meridian Expeditions: contour maps that redraw themselves as you switch routes
→ Oda: an architecture studio whose timber cabin draws itself, with a live sun study
→ Relay: a dev tool where the editor types a workflow and the run graph executes it live
→ Signal: a mission-control SaaS with a live infrastructure graph that contains threats as they flare
Built to be edited with AI. Every template ships with a README, a DESIGN.md and an AGENTS.md, so Claude, Cursor or whatever assistant you use changes it the way it was built, not the way it guesses.
Pricing, per template:
• HTML: $29
• React: $59
• Bundle (HTML + React): $79
Or get All-Access for $169: all six templates, both editions, plus every future drop. Nine more are on the way, at no extra cost.
No page builder, no lock-in, no third-party requests.
If you build sites for clients, I'd love to hear which one you'd use first.
Ferro Type is the one I would open first. Bending a variable font under the pointer re-lays out the text every frame, which is a much bigger bill than it looks, and stepping the weight in a few fixed increments is usually what keeps it smooth on a laptop that is not plugged in....
So I Recently rebranded my upcoming AI Agent Harness from "Crank" to "Pixie" which is the name of my cat. Do you think it was the right decision?
Which one do you prefer? Crank or Pixie?!

Pixie gets my vote too. Naming it after your cat makes it memorable, and it feels a lot friendlier for a tool people trust with their code. Nice rebrand.
End-to-end UI/UX design and full-stack development for Eterna Cloud, streamlining hyperscale data center operations.
I led the end-to-end product design and full-stack web development for Eterna Cloud, an enterprise platform engineered to orchestrate complex equipment workflows, vendor handoffs, and lifecycle management for hyperscale data centers. On the design side, I established a scalable design system with custom tokens and crafted an immersive dark-mode interface paired with high-impact isometric visuals, transforming dense technical submittals and stakeholder matrices into an intuitive, frictionless user journey. For development, I translated these designs into a responsive, high-performance web architecture, optimizing dynamic dashboards and continuous data states to ensure rapid load times, pixel-perfect execution, and a seamless operational experience across every phase from pre-construction to turnover.
