What I Check Before Shipping a Client Website
The accessibility, performance, content, and deployment checks that catch problems before launch.
Check The Obvious On Real Viewports
Before launch, every core page should be reviewed on small screens, normal laptops, and wide desktops. Most visual defects show up when the layout is forced out of the ideal viewport.
Treat Content As Part Of The Product
Headings, calls to action, alt text, and metadata all affect how professional a site feels. These details deserve the same attention as layout and component styling.
Build Once, Verify Twice
A clean production build, working routes, correct metadata, and stable assets are minimum checks before handoff. They prevent avoidable launch-day surprises.
