Mohammad Shehadeh
Senior Software Engineer
I’ve spent 7+ years building for the web, mostly with React, Next.js, and TypeScript. I care about clean architecture, fast pages, and the small details that make an interface feel right.
Right now I’m building a microfrontend platform for live online auctions. On the side I run Sahabti, a platform for deploying apps and their databases into private networks, and make Hirael, components, blocks and templates for shadcn/ui. I also make 404 Skill, a quiet arcade of word games and logic puzzles, and write about frontend engineering, small browser games and tools.

API Idempotency: Why the Retry Button Charged Them Twice
A network timeout does not tell you whether the request succeeded. Idempotency keys let a client retry safely, so the same operation applied twice has the effect of applying it once.
