Hello, I’m SimonaNasteva

I build software with structure and clarity

After a decade in software engineering, I’ve built this space to share code experiments and essays on the intersection of technical architecture and user experience.

01 / SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
I decouple logic from the UI to ensure the codebase remains modular and scales without errors.

02 / DEVELOPMENT WORKFLOWS
I use automated testing and CI/CD pipelines to focus on solving complex architectural problems.

03 / INTERFACE PERFORMANCE
I optimize rendering and latency to ensure the interface remains fast and accessible on all devices.

Between Design and Engineering

Why the "Handover" is a broken metaphor, and what we should be doing instead.

experiments

Small things, explored deeply

A collection of experiments and prototypes exploring various design and engineering challenges. These are works in progress, so expect some rough edges and incomplete projects.

[2026]

Accessibility Lab

Accessibility lab to not only test the colors and contrast of a design but also to explore the nuances of inclusive design, such as how different users might interact with a product and the various assistive technologies they might use.

The Logic of Interface

Designing with Implementation in Mind

Bridging the gap between form and function to explore how hybrid thinkers navigate the friction of modern creation to build software that is not just functional, but intentional.
