Tradeco Costa Rica

Tradeco Costa Rica marked a before and after in my professional workflow. It was the first production project where I chose Astro and Tailwind CSS as the new base for YGU websites.

I moved away from Gatsby because it felt slow and heavy for the kind of sites we were building. Astro gave me the performance, simplicity and static-first approach I wanted, while Tailwind replaced the older styling tools I had been using.

The part I am most proud of is the catalog experience. I used View Transitions and scroll preservation to make different static pages feel like a single interactive component. That project became the technical foundation for many later sites.
