I’m a React Native developer passionate about creating seamless animations and writing elegant, type-safe code with TypeScript. I obsess over the details — every screen should flow beautifully, every interaction should feel intentional, and every line of code should make the product better.
When I’m not building polished, production-ready apps, you’ll find me experimenting with new animation techniques, refining codebases to pixel-perfect standards, and sharing what I learn with the developer community. For me, great software isn’t just functional — it’s delightful.
Type systems define how we reason about code, enforce safety, and manage complexity — but not all type systems approach these goals the same way. In this talk, I pit structural typing, as in TypeScript, against nominal typing, as in Kotlin, in a practical exploration of real-world scenarios. You’ll see side-by-side examples of how each system handles interoperability, composition, and code evolution, revealing where explicit identities enforce discipline and where shape-based typing unlocks flexibility and expressiveness. By the end, you’ll understand the strengths and trade-offs of each approach — and why, in many situations, structural typing gives you a surprising advantage.
