Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does a markup specialist do?
A markup specialist focuses on writing clean, structured HTML and organized CSS to ensure performance, accessibility, and maintainability. This includes proper semantic HTML, ARIA labels for screen readers, optimized styles, and ensuring the UI functions correctly across different devices and browsers.
How does your role differ from a front-end developer?
A front-end developer typically works on JavaScript logic, interactions, and API handling. My focus is strictly on the UI structure, ensuring that the HTML and CSS are clean, scalable, and performant. I don't work on logic-heavy tasks like state management or backend communication.
Do you work with design systems?
Yes, I help structure and implement UI components, variables, and styles based on design systems. My role ensures that the visual and interactive elements of a design system translate into efficient, scalable code without unnecessary bloat. I also developed a Figma plugin, Inked Colibri, which simplifies color management and helps integrate design tokens into codebases.
Can you optimize an existing website for performance?
Yes, I analyze and refine the HTML, CSS, and structure of a site to improve loading speed, accessibility, and SEO. This includes cleaning unused styles, reducing redundant DOM elements, and ensuring best practices for web performance.
Do you work with JavaScript at all?
Yes, I understand JavaScript and keep up with industry trends. While my primary focus is UI integrity, I write JavaScript when necessary, particularly for styling-related interactions. For example, I built the Inked Colibri plugin entirely in JavaScript, incorporating various features for UI efficiency. However, I leave complex business logic, API calls, and backend interactions to developers specializing in those areas.
How do you approach WordPress optimization?
I optimize WordPress themes by removing unnecessary styles, disabling unneeded services, and fine-tuning the structure for better performance. My experience includes creating custom Gutenberg blocks to make content editing easier without adding unnecessary plugins.
Why is a well-structured HTML and CSS setup important?
A poorly structured UI can lead to performance issues, SEO problems, and accessibility barriers. Even if a website looks good, improper markup can affect search rankings, slow down loading times, and cause usability issues. My role ensures the foundation of the UI is efficient, scalable, and easy to maintain.
Are you also a designer?
Yes, I also do design. I have experience creating design systems in Figma and integrating them into front-end workflows using design tokens. For my design portfolio, you can check out my work here.
