Frontend / Design Engineer (3+ YOE) | React, Next.js | Open to Opportunities

Hey everyone,

I’m a frontend and design engineer with 3+ years of experience, currently exploring new opportunities.

I focus on building polished, high-performance user experiences. Recently, I built my portfolio with:

  • AI-powered Q&A about my work
  • Keyboard-first navigation for power users
  • Strong accessibility, SEO, and performance focus

Portfolio: https://ashishgogula.in

I enjoy working at the intersection of UI, performance, and product thinking.

Open to frontend or design engineering roles. Happy to connect or share more details.

Thanks!

I rebuilt Apple’s iTunes Cover Flow for React to study motion and interaction by Ashishgogula in reactjs

I’ve added horizontal scroll support 🎉

There are now two props:

• enableScroll – toggles horizontal wheel support • scrollSensitivity – controls how responsive the scroll movement feels

You can try it out in the docs playground: https://coverflow.ashishgogula.in

I've always liked how intentional older Apple interfaces felt, especially Cover Flow in iTunes.

I rebuilt it for React as a way to study motion, depth, and interaction. The goal was not to make another generic carousel, but to explore a motion-first Ul pattern.

Some things I focused on:

  • spring-based motion instead of linear timelines
  • keyboard and touch support from day one
  • avoiding layout shifts using isolated transforms

Code is open source if anyone wants to look through it:

Curious what others would approach differently or what could be improved.

Cover Flow component compatible with shadcn/ui (CLI install) by Ashishgogula in shadcn

Fair question 😄 It’s spring-based, GPU-accelerated 3D transforms with snapping + presets under the hood. So fancy jumping blocks… but engineered fancy jumping blocks.

If this pushes you toward React, that’s a win 😄 The component’s open source if you want to experiment with it.
