The problem

As Cashew grew, the engineering team was duplicating UI patterns across multiple Next.js applications. Feature delivery slowed, design drift compounded, and onboarding new engineers required tracing through three different layouts of the same shape. The team needed a monorepo with a real component library, not a folder named shared.

Constraints

  • Multiple consumer apps shipping in parallel, no freeze window
  • TypeScript-strict, no any escape hatches
  • Tailwind tokens shared across apps without runtime cost
  • WCAG 2.1 inherited at the component layer, not bolted on

What I built

  • 01Stood up an Nx monorepo with shared TypeScript and Tailwind configurations
  • 02Designed and shipped 70+ reusable components with explicit accessibility primitives
  • 03Aligned component APIs across apps so the same Button, Input, and Form patterns work everywhere
  • 04Wrote contribution guidelines and review patterns so the library kept its shape post-launch
  • 05Migrated the existing apps onto the library without freezing feature work
