Bridging Design & Code: React, Storybook & TailwindCSS
Building Blocks for Digital Experiences
In college, I created this tutorial to demonstrate how modern frontend architecture enables scalable UI development . By combining React,TailwindCSS, and Storybook, I showed how to build a component library that serves as the foundation forconsistent user interfaces and ultimately a functional profile page.

Documentation with Storybook
As each component was built, we documented its variants and use cases in Storybook. This step was crucial, creating living documentation that served as both a development environment and reference guide, ensuring each component's purpose and capabilities were clear before integration.

From Components to Interfaces
The final step demonstrated how our isolated components could be assembled into a functional profile page. By leveraging our component library and adding an API call to fetch user data, we transformed individual UI elements into a cohesive interface, showing the power of component-driven development in creating maintainable, consistent user experiences.

Professional Application
What began as an educational project reflects professional principles I've since applied in my career.This component-driven approach is fundamental to UX Engineering, where bridging design systems and implementation is crucial for creating cohesive user experiences that scale across products and platforms.
