About Byron Pantoja — NextJS Developer
I learn technical things fast, then make them understandable for everyone else.
For 14+ years at Coffee For Peace, a family social enterprise supporting 880+ farming families across the Philippines, I've been the technical bridge — building websites, earning quality certifications, designing brand identity, and translating all of it into tools the team could use on the ground.
Now I build modern web applications with NextJS, React, and Tailwind CSS. I work with AI as a development partner — Claude handles boilerplate and scaffolding so I can focus on architecture, design decisions, and shipping.
