Website, UI components

Inkbox offers temporary tattoos made with their own proprietary ink technology. Lasting up to ten days, they are simple to apply and appear like traditional tattoos.

My role began as a jump into the frying pan of an active ecommerce operation (revenue in millions, experiencing a boom during the Covid19 pandemic). I was brought in as the first front-end dev addition to the team.

My efforts were focused on:

  • Product images & details components
  • Search components
  • Cart components
  • Navigation and menu components
  • A design-tracing companion app (Vue, PWA)
  • Custom Tattoo Editor

Custom Tattoo Editor

My time with Inkbox was dominated with renovating the entire Custom Tattoo Editor web app. This included building many brand-new features, bug fixes and mobile optimizations. Other than becoming intimate with Vue (v2), another essential technology was Fabric JS, a complex drawing library using HTML <canvas>.

  • Vue-based web app leveraging… everything!
  • Full drawing canvas with pencil, eraser, image upload, font selection, etc
  • Fully responsive: mobile & desktop
  • Special user experiences for on-boarding, previewing tattoos, assembling an order, etc
  • Many tech challenges tackled
