Overview
What I built & why
Open source project management with issues, cycles, modules, and views. Next.js frontend backed by a Django REST API.
Designed as a self-hostable Jira/Linear alternative with a familiar issue model and keyboard-driven workflow.

Process
Challenge & solution
The challenge
Mobile traffic was outpacing desktop two-to-one, yet the existing experience was effectively unusable below 768px.
The solution
Wrote a zero-downtime migration pipeline that mirrored writes to both systems, then cut over after a clean shadow-read week.
