About Me

Almost everything I build starts with an obsession: a game, a sport, an idea.

I'm a full-stack developer. Day to day, I work with React and TypeScript, and use Azure for infrastructure. I also built my own plugin based on Spec-Driven Development (SDD) principles to structure how I approach complex projects, working with Claude Code.

Outside the code: I train Muay Thai — Tiger Thai is my home gym. I'm into racing sims; you can watch me drive in Rivazza.

What I've Built

CombatAtlas country page — curated fight footage from México CombatAtlas — interactive world map of fighting styles, project by Axel Barraza
01

CombatAtlas

Martial arts are one of the most direct paths to understanding who someone really is. CombatAtlas grew out of that idea: giving structure to the many expressions of combat that have emerged around the world. A space to appreciate my country's style and, at the same time, discover the Muay Thai legends who took their discipline to another level.

Trash Talk Chess mid-game — the Stockfish-powered engine taunting the player Trash Talk Chess — play against a trash-talking Stockfish engine, project by Axel Barraza
02

Trash Talk Chess

What if your opponent didn't just try to beat you, but made you keep thinking about the game long after it ended? Trash Talk Chess combines games against Stockfish with the ability to explore Chess.com profiles, as the groundwork for an opponent that tailors its taunts to the way you play. The project is still in development.

Rivazza — real-time Assetto Corsa telemetry dashboard with gauges, lap times, and track map, project by Axel Barraza Assetto Corsa in-sim view — the racing sim Rivazza pulls live telemetry from
03

Rivazza

Rivazza turns Assetto Corsa telemetry into an interactive dashboard for following a driving session in real time. From the car's gauges to lap times and racing lines on track, it transforms simulator data into a visual picture of every lap. It also includes a demo with a session in a Ferrari SF-25.

Face Detector scanning an image — detected face highlighted with a bounding box Face Detector — real-time face detection web app, project by Axel Barraza
04

Face Detector

My first dive into machine learning: a tool that detects faces in images right in the browser and marks each detection with its confidence score. It uses TensorFlow.js and a lightweight face-detection model, with no need to send the image to a server for processing.
