Konstantin Zavalny

Hi! I'm Konstantin. I've been building for the web since 2008.

I started out in the PHP days—back when we didn't really distinguish between "frontend" and "backend". When files were uploaded by ftp. Since then, I've seen the industry change a dozen times over. I was there for the early Node.js skepticism and the eventual React takeover, and I've evolved my stack right along with it. These days, I'm less interested in just "making things work" and more focused on the strategy behind complex, heavy-duty systems the early web couldn't have handled.

Right now, I spend my time at the intersection of enterprise-grade engineering and fast product shipping. I still solve architectural headaches for big companies, but my real passion is growing portfolio of micro-SaaS and AI-driven ventures. I’ve shifted my mindset from "writing code" to "building assets".

I'm all-in on AI-augmented development (or "vibecoding," if you want to call it that). I use it to move fast, but I rely on my nearly two decades of experience to ensure the underlying architecture is rock-solid. While a lot of people are using AI to generate a mountain of tech debt, I’m using it to rapidly ship clean, high-performance products that are built to scale and designed to stay profitable.
