Intro

I'm a designer & developer.

Hi, I'm Hans Martens — I build fast, modern websites with a clear focus on usability and performance. I also write about design and development on my blog.

My workflow & stack

I work with Astro to get top‑tier performance, TypeScript to keep things predictable, Tailwind CSS for simple and consistent styling, and Markdown/MDX to manage content cleanly. Everything is deployed on Vercel and organized in GitHub.

My core principles

I focus on speed and efficiency

I build websites that respond quickly by writing clean, lightweight code and choosing tools that keep everything fast and reliable.

I design with clarity and intention

I create structured layouts that guide people naturally through the content using thoughtful spacing, hierarchy, and typography.

I build with care and consistency

I pay attention to details in both design and development, creating websites that feel reliable, accessible, and pleasant to use.
