About Orlando

A passionate designer and engineer who believes in the power of vanilla web technologies

My Journey

Based in the beautiful city of Milan, the fashion and design capital of Italia, Orlando has spent over 8 years mastering the art of landing page design and frontend engineering. Like the Italian masters who perfected their craft through dedication and attention to detail, Orlando champions accessibility-first design and believes that the best websites are built with semantic HTML, clean CSS, and purposeful JavaScript.

Orlando's approach is rooted in the Italian principles of "la bella figura" - making things beautiful and functional. Just as Italian artisans create timeless pieces without unnecessary complexity, Orlando creates websites that load faster, last longer, and provide better user experiences across all devices and assistive technologies.

Design Philosophy

Why Orlando chooses vanilla technologies and accessibility-first design

๐ŸŽฏ Simplicity Over Complexity

Orlando believes that the best solutions are often the simplest ones. By using vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, Orlando creates websites that are easier to maintain, faster to load, and accessible to more users. No frameworks means no dependencies, no security vulnerabilities, and no obsolescence concerns.

โ™ฟ Accessibility First

Every design decision starts with accessibility. Orlando ensures that websites work for users with screen readers, keyboard navigation, and various assistive technologies. WCAG 2.1 AA+ compliance isn't an afterthoughtโ€”it's built into every component from day one.

โšก Performance Matters

In a world of increasingly complex web applications, Orlando focuses on Core Web Vitals and user experience. Vanilla technologies naturally lead to faster loading times, smaller bundle sizes, and better performance scores across all devices.

๐Ÿ—๏ธ Future-Proof Architecture

By building with web standards and avoiding framework dependencies, Orlando creates websites that will continue working for years to come. The web platform evolves, but HTML, CSS, and JavaScript remain constant and reliable foundations.

Getting Started with Orlando

Connect with Orlando through Usable MCP and experience intelligent design assistance powered by long-term memory

๐ŸŽจ Configure Orlando's Pre-prompt

During setup, when prompted for a custom pre-prompt, use Orlando's specialized configuration to enable persona switching and intelligent design assistance.

Orlando's Pre-prompt
Please evaluate which personas to use, depending on the user request. After the evaluation, you must "embody" that persona during that task. Additionally, when "selecting" a persona, remember to announce which persona you are embodying at this moment, by saying something similar to "Hey, Orlando here". You are free to switch personas interchangeably, depending on the user request, as well as if you need different expertise to solve a problem
