My name is Natali. I'm a frontend developer with a real passion for building attractive and complex interfaces. I do love creating modern visual effects and have built some popular snippets on CodePen (check them out below).
Additionally, I'm a beginner tech article writer. I'm interested in sharing my experience through helpful articles and tutorials.
| Article | Description |
|---|---|
| Hand-built smoothScrollTo() Implementation (Eng) | This article is a summary of my implementation of a vanilla JS alternative to the browser's scroll-behavior: smooth feature, along with a step-by-step tutorial on one of the possible implementation variants. |
| Function Overloadings in Typescript (Ru) | This article was born from experiments with function overloading in TypeScript. After an introduction about what overloading is in general, I want to talk about the curious nuances I encountered, and how these nuances have changed my understanding of working with overloads |
The purpose of these projects is to explore certain concepts in-depth and, optionally, to share the exploration results as a tutorial or article.

| smoothScrollTo() Function Concept | Live Demo | Article | TS/JS/HTML/CSS | I'm implementing my own vanilla JS alternative to the browser's scroll-behavior: smooth feature here. It's useful for cases when you need to combine this functionality with complex scroll JS behavior. Also I've experimented with RAFs here. |
All the items are realizations of my ideas, fully hand-built by me from the design up to code implementation
