Buildpack

I designed and built a SaaS platform for hosting and using icon libraries. It lets creators upload icons, manage private or public projects, and generate CSS-ready npm packages. Currently in closed beta.

What I worked on


Product design:
  • System for uploading, organizing, and managing SVG icon libraries

  • Access controls for private and public projects

  • Marketplace browsing experience for shared icon packs

  • UX for converting icons into CSS-ready, installable npm packages

  • Creator dashboard for analytics and project limits




Engineering:
  • Implemented the backend with Node.js + Express and Prisma

  • SVG processing pipeline for converting and packaging icons

  • Storage architecture using S3-compatible buckets

  • Role/plan logic (Free, Pro, Pro Plus)

  • Private npm registry configuration using personal auth tokens

  • Job queues for icon conversion using Bull

  • Integration with Clerk and Supabase for auth and data

  • Core API endpoints for upload, conversion, publishing, and project management



What Buildpack does

  • Hosts icon libraries in one place

  • Lets creators keep icons private or share them publicly

  • Automatically prepares every icon for use in code through CSS + npm

  • Helps developers install icons instantly into any project


Status

Closed beta with controlled access. Opening gradually to designers and developers. check here >>
