Manik Agnish

I'm a frontend engineer with 5+ years of experience building web and mobile apps people enjoy using. I care about usability, performance and UI architecture that holds up as the product grows.

Outside client work I run a few indie products: Watchlist Central, Offline, Silent Habits and Screensage for iOS and macOS, and Scrumboard for teams on the web.

Most of what's drawn on this page is real: I play chess, throw darts and box when I'm not shipping. You can find me on X, LinkedIn and GitHub, grab my résumé, or get in touch over email.

    • Built Watchlist Central in React Native and Expo, with local-first SQLite, deep links, calendar reminders and shareable posters, and took it to its first release in a month.
