Dennis Kinuthia

FullStack Web Developer

I create fast, accessible, and modern web applications with TypeScript, React, and Next.js. Based in Nairobi, Kenya, I'm passionate about developer experience and building elegant solutions to complex problems.

About Me

TypeScript enthusiast based in Nairobi, Kenya with over 5 years of fullstack development experience. I specialize in building exceptional web experiences using modern technologies.

My expertise spans across React frameworks, bundlers, and rendering strategies. I've spoken at tech conferences like Rendercon-KE about the React ecosystem and regularly participate in the local developer community.

I excel at integrations with React and TypeScript, whether it's REST APIs, GraphQL clients like Apollo and Relay, tRPC, or service workers. My approach emphasizes type safety, clean architecture, and creating truly reusable components.
