Role Design, development and production release, solo
Agile retrospectives SaaS built solo, from design to production. Angular 19 SSR, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL.
Context
Personal product: a tool helping agile teams run structured retrospectives, with collaboration, voting and action tracking.
Challenge
Ship a complete product alone (API, interface, database, deployment) while keeping it indexable by search engines, which forces server-side rendering in an Angular application.
Solution
Angular 19 front end with SSR and hydration, Spring Boot REST API, PostgreSQL with Liquibase migrations, cloud deployment and a CI/CD pipeline. Crawler rendering and SSR deployment were the real sticking points.
Outcome
Live at sprintsense.dessalli.com, Lighthouse performance 95+, MVP delivered in 3 months.
Highlights
- Solo full-stack build: Angular 19 SSR front end + Spring Boot REST API
- PostgreSQL with Liquibase migrations
- Server-side rendering with hydration for SEO and performance
- Cloud deployment with a CI/CD pipeline
