Alex Mercer.
Designer & developer
building the web.
I design and build fast, beautiful web products — equal parts engineer and craftsperson.
About
One person, both sides of the table.
I'm Alex — a frontend developer and product designer based in Lisbon.
I spend most of my days turning ambiguous ideas into shipped products: writing the Figma file, then writing the React.
I care about typography, motion that earns its keep, and details users feel but never notice.
Currently freelancing with early-stage teams who want one person to own both the design and the implementation.
