I started in web design and frontend development. Now I build products end to end, from interface to infrastructure, together with the AI systems that help build and run them.

I'm Wesli Miggels, a developer from the Netherlands. I drew and painted long before I wrote code; I have been building for the web since around 2018. For years that meant websites: design, frontend, full builds for clients under the wesli.dev name.
That is still where my eye for detail comes from, but it is no longer where I stop. Since 2025 my own work has been products: FWRD Studio, a platform for websites that maintain themselves; Sponsorboard, a creator–brand sponsorship marketplace; and Atlas, the always-on AI operator that runs on my homelab.
A lot of my code is now written by coding agents that I direct and check. The work moved from typing every line to deciding what to build, setting the constraints and verifying what comes back.

Oldest first: from pencils to products, and the agents that now help build them.

DESIGN / UX
04- UI / UX design
- product flows (sitemap, onboarding, deals)
- graphic + 2D / 3D design
- token-based theming, WCAG contrast

Five rules, each with the place it was tested.
Brief first, then code
The brief comes before any code, and I drop working versions that miss it.
proof:three WebGL concepts for this site, dropped in one day: two for poor contrast and an invisible swarm, one for about 336 KB of JS against a 300 KB budget
Verified, not claimed
Agents do a lot of my work, so checking it is part of the work. Systems should be reliable when nobody is watching, and failures should turn into tests.
proof:Atlas reviews its own failures every night and adds guards
Model output is data
A model answer is input for code, not the final word. JSON only, values clamped on the server, user text treated as data.
proof:Sponsorboard match pipeline, with a prompt-injection test
A human signs off
Anything public or hard to undo waits for a person to approve it.
proof:FWRD Studio publishes nothing until the owner approves
Performance is a requirement
Budgets are set up front and measured, not checked at the end.
proof:the home page of this site: about 80 KB of gzipped JavaScript, under a 90 KB budget
Small, true, a little dry.
