Turning ideas into fast, production-ready web apps.
I'm Belal Alaa El-Shabrawy, a full-stack developer and Computer Science & AI student at Cairo University. I build software people use every day: the Q&A system behind Cairo University's AI assistant, the live site of an aesthetic-medicine clinic, and interactive 3D portfolios. I care about the parts nobody sees - the auth chain, the rate limiter that fails closed, the frame that doesn't drop.

Where I’ve been
The teams I’ve shipped with, from a live clinic to a university of 27 faculties.
Clinica Joelle
Software Engineer
- Built two custom WordPress themes from scratch for a live aesthetic-medicine clinic, using PHP templates and template parts, block patterns, theme.json design tokens and self-hosted fonts rather than a page builder.
- Implemented treatment pages, doctor profiles, before-and-after result galleries and a consultation enquiry flow.
- Own and extend the production site at clinicajoelleegypt.com day to day, from new treatment pages to performance and front-end fixes.
CSDS
Software Engineer
- Built and shipped the university's Q&A CMS in Next.js 16 and TypeScript, now used by 27 faculties to author the content behind the university's AI assistant.
- Designed the authentication chain end to end: bcrypt-hashed PIN login, signed session cookies exchanged for scoped Firebase custom tokens, with Firestore security rules as the enforced boundary.
- Added fail-closed rate limiting on Upstash Redis, so a degraded Redis blocks logins instead of silently disabling the brute-force guard.
Scale AI
AI Expert
- Conducted detailed video-quality comparisons for 500+ generative AI outputs, establishing accuracy benchmarks across multi-modal models.
- Performed high-volume text transcriptions with a sustained 98%+ accuracy rating to support dataset alignment for language model training pipelines.
Digital Egypt Pioneers Initiative
Web Development Scholar
- Completed a competitive MCIT scholarship specializing in advanced web development, with intensive training in React.js and component-driven architecture.
- Collaborated on PortfolioGenie, an AI-powered developer portfolio generator, as the program's graduation project.
- Applied prompt-engineering techniques to integrate AI-generated content into a real product workflow.

What I do
Software that works in production, looks considered, and stays fast on the devices people actually own.
Production apps from the database up: Next.js and TypeScript on the front, Firebase, Node.js or Laravel behind it, with authentication and security rules that hold.
Deliverables: Next.js, TypeScript, Firebase, Node.js, REST APIsInquire ↗
Custom themes written from scratch rather than assembled in a page builder - PHP templates, block patterns and theme.json design tokens - for sites the client can edit without breaking.
Deliverables: PHP templates, block patterns, theme.json, performanceInquire ↗
Retrieval pipelines and assistants grounded in your own documents, including Arabic: embeddings, vector stores, reranking, and the testing that proves the answers are right.
Deliverables: LangChain, ChromaDB, embeddings, evaluationInquire ↗
Scroll-driven 3D and WebGL experiences, like this one, profiled until they stay smooth on ordinary laptops and phones.
