I'm Sohail Rana. I design sites in Figma and build them as fast, hand-coded React front ends on Sanity CMS, or build your finished design exactly as drawn. For founders who've outgrown their site, and teams and agencies with designs ready to build.
Real client projects: CMS builds, rebuilds, and custom integrations, each one designed in Figma and hand-coded end to end.

One person across the whole pipeline: design, front end, content model, and the rebuild that gets you there.
Already have a design, or an existing React codebase? I build your Figma file exactly as drawn, to your spacing, type scale and components, and raise the states a design leaves out (empty, loading, error, long text, small screens) before they become a revision round. Fast and stable from the first commit, checked with Lighthouse before handoff.
No design yet? I design the full site in Figma around your brand first. You approve every page before any code is written, so nothing changes by surprise at build time. Because I build it too, nothing gets lost between design and code.
Your content modelled as reusable blocks in Sanity, so your team adds pages, services, events and posts without touching code, while the front end stays fast and hand-coded.
Moving off a restrictive website builder, or stuck with an AI-generated or inherited codebase nobody can maintain? I rebuild it as clean, readable code on your own domain and in your own GitHub repo. Content, URLs and search rankings come across intact.
Multi-step booking and order flows, forms, payments, CRM hooks and live data, written as custom front-end code instead of plugins, so they match your brand rather than looking like third-party software.
For founders and consultants who want to run their own site. Designed in Figma first, then built in Framer so you can edit copy and pages yourself, with no developer in the loop.
Most sites break at the seams — between the design file, the build, and the CMS behind it. Mine don't, because I own all three.
I spent two years as Front-End Developer & Designer at Dutrow LLC, designing and shipping websites for clients across industries — over fifty sites passed through my hands in that time. That's where the two crafts fused: every design decision made knowing how it will be built, every line of code written knowing why the design looks the way it does.
Now I work directly with founders, product teams, and agencies: designing and building custom React and Sanity sites, rebuilding sites that have stopped fitting, and building Figma files from teams who need them done properly. You deal with one person who owns the whole result: the design, the front end, the content model, and the handover. No templates, no page builders, no telephone game.
A process built to remove surprises — you approve the design before development starts, and you leave owning the code.
We start with what the site actually has to do and what's holding it back — the platform, the content model, the code someone else left behind. Sometimes the right answer is smaller than the brief.
Every page is designed around your brand and approved by you before development starts. No surprises at delivery — you've already seen exactly what you're getting.
The approved design, hand-coded as a fast, responsive React front end with content modelled in Sanity. Because I designed it, nothing gets lost in translation between designer and developer.
Content moved across, redirects mapped, deployed and tested on real devices — then handed to you in your own repo. You own the code, the content, and the hosting. No lock-in.

Have a design that needs building, need one designed, or want a site you finally own? I'll reply with an honest take on scope, timeline, and whether I'm the right fit.
