The Arabic Type Design Archive

a seasoned Tunisian front-end developer with a rich journey of over 14 years in the tech world. My current professional landscape is sculpted with Vue 3, Tailwind, and Typescript, where I blend innovation with functionality. Beyond the pixels and code lines, I delve into the world of numismatics, celebrating the art and history encapsulated in each coin.
