About

Who I Am
I'm Austin Lau, a developer who values simplicity and precision. I work across the full stack — from system design to pixel-perfect UI — with a focus on tools that are fast, reliable, and a pleasure to use.
What I Do
I design and build web applications, APIs, and developer tools. I care deeply about code quality, developer experience, and shipping products that solve real problems without unnecessary complexity.

The best code is the code you don't write. The best feature is the one that feels obvious.
