APOLOGIES FOR THE INCONVENIENCE
creative \
devsigner \
Frontend Dev & Designer.
I build things people feel.
AUVANCE STUDIO
/ 01 SYNOPSIS
Between logic and imagination, I build. Trained at BCIT with Distinction, I've spent 600+ hours sharpening the craft — turning ideas into living interfaces that are responsive, accessible, and impossible to ignore. Currently shipping GrainFree. Every project, a step forward.
BASED IN VANCOUVER
When the code rests, I'm in the gym, on the road, or chasing the next idea. Balance isn't a side note — it's what keeps the work honest. Strength is the discipline; creativity is the reward.

Each project is a milestone where imagination meets function. From API-integrated React apps to high-motion Webflow experiences. Each one pushed my skills forward whether its System Scalability, Animation Sequencing, CMS Structure or Anything in between.

GrainFree

In Development

GrainFree is a web application designed for individuals living with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
It simplifies food discovery by providing a curated database of gluten-free products, meal tracking tools, and personalized dietary recommendations.

Auvance

\ Pre 2026

Aakif Umar's personal portfolio is a Webflow-built creative showcase displaying his work as a Frontend Developer and UI Designer.
It features his projects, services, skills, and experience - designed to connect with employers, collaborators, and clients.

Intercodex

\ Pre 2025

Intercodex is corporate CMS-powered website for showcasing tech services and products.
It combines the flexibility of React with the content management power of WordPress, delivering a mobile-first, accessible, and high-performance experience.

ONAFilms

\ Pre 2025

ONA Films is a React-based movie discovery application built to explore films and trending releases.
It delivers real-time movie data through a fast, responsive UI designed for smooth browsing and discovery.
Four disciplines. One workflow. I bridge the gap between design and development — building things that look intentional and work reliably. These aren't just skills I list; they're how I actually think and ship.

\ 01

WEB DEVELOPMENT

I build fast, production-ready websites with Next.js, TypeScript, and GSAP. Clean code, WCAG accessibility, and performance are non-negotiables — not afterthoughts. Everything I ship is responsive, maintainable, and engineered with the next developer in mind.

\ 02

WEB DESIGN (UX/UI)

I design interfaces that feel considered. Figma is my sketchbook — built around auto layout, design tokens, and motion that guides rather than distracts. My goal is always the same: a design that translates cleanly into a product people actually want to use.

\ 03

AI-POWERED DEVELOPMENT

AI is in my workflow, not in charge of it. I use it to move faster through prototyping and debugging, while keeping the direction, decisions, and design thinking human. The result: complex systems shipped with both speed and intention.

\ 04

SYSTEMS THINKING

I don't just build pages — I build structures. Component architecture, animation systems, data flow — I approach each project with the full picture in mind so nothing breaks when it scales. Good systems are invisible; you only notice them when they're missing.
