ALVARO ALARCON WEB DEV

Casco Viejo Bar & Kitchen is a Spanish restaurant that came to me with a website nobody could find, hosted on an ageing WordPress setup that nobody could safely edit. I rebuilt it from the ground up: new design system, new stack, a headless CMS the owners could actually use, and a zero-downtime migration that kept years of SEO equity intact.

Horari is a simple app for Windows (Electron) that lets you create and manage shifts for different employees/departments.

To build this project, I used a next-gen development stack led by TRAE (AI-native IDE).

My goal? Demonstrate how modern AI can act as a force multiplier for a software developer.

Social media web app for sharing gift wish lists with friends.

You can share gifts, add friends, create events, comments, questions, secret gift exchanges and much more!

The app has i18n support and dark mode.

I used Supabase for authentication, storage and database.

You need to sign up to use the app, but you can also contact me for a live demo or a dummy account.

Website for a wedding event.

The website has some custom animations made with Tailwind and CSS, with 3D effects and cool transitions.

All the designs, illustrations and drawings were also made by me.

There’s a working form to RSVP for the wedding. The info is sent to Firebase and the couple can access, edit and delete it in a dashboard created only for them, with a login access. They can also create groups and organise guests.

I used playwright to test the website’s forms.

Another website for a wedding event.

In terms of functionality, it’s similar to the other web. The RSVP form however is a bit more complex and has more options/steps.

I also created all the designs and illustrations myself.

I started working in my new portfolio because i wanted something that was mobile-first, simple to use and very direct.

At the end of the day, I think this is what recruiters normally look for.

I’m very proud of the design I’ve crafted in a neo-brutalist style with my own touches.

Since it’s only Astro and doesn’t have lots of unused code, it’s fast to load and easy to navigate.

This was my old portfolio, before going fully into web dev.

It’s in 2 languages (English and Spanish). And shows most of the projects you see here too.

I particularly like the mobile mock-ups with the screenshots and gifs of the projects.

Web app for tracking your car’s maintenance.

It has a dashboard with the cars you add and the records added to each car.

Sign up is free & easy, or you can contact me and I’ll share a dummy account for you to try it out.
