The product ties a personal closet to Whearables — our in-app home for AI outfit recommendations — plus swipe-based taste feedback so the experience learns what reads as a “fit” for each person. Built solo on the design/build side using an AI-assisted dev workflow (e.g. Cursor + Claude) to move quickly without a large eng team.

Design System & Build

I defined a scalable design system in Figma — type, color, components — and translated it 1:1 into a React Native library so marketing screens and product screens stayed visually consistent and cheap to extend.

That cut one-off styles and made handoff unnecessary: I was both designer and implementer, so decisions in Figma showed up the same in the app.

Core Product UX

The MVP centers on getting clothes into the closet, surfacing Whearables (recommendations), and closing the loop with feedback. I designed and built the main tab architecture (closet, add flows, Whearables), interaction patterns (gestures, loading, empty states), and the swipe experience so recommendations feel fast and legible on real devices—not just static mocks.

How I worked (and what stuck)

As a founding designer–engineer, tradeoffs were constant: depth vs. time, polish vs. scope, native feel vs. solo bandwidth. I relied on clear component patterns, reuse, and AI-assisted coding to ship a credible consumer MVP with a small team.

If I had another cycle, I’d push further on research-backed validation and analytics-informed iteration—same craft, tighter proof on what moved retention and taste quality.
