Scouting report

React/Next.js frontend specialist who ships

assessed from open-source footprint

Staff
70signal

Hakeem is a frontend-leaning (65%) TypeScript/Next.js developer whose real signal is shipping: 17 of his repos are deployed and he scores top-tier on originality (94), backed by a personal site at hakeemclarke.com. The work itself is small in reach — 29 original repos but only 2 total stars and a 0.66 abandonment ratio, with projects like a minimal GPT clone and a Next.js lending app skewing toward practice. A solid React/Next.js builder for product teams that prize deployment over GitHub stars.
