How it was built
Like every project at BozApps, this was designed, built, deployed and (where the engagement included it) operated end-to-end by the same engineer. Production defaults — TypeScript strict, row-level security on the database, structured logging, accessibility audits, schema.org structured data, GDPR-compliant cookie handling — are included by default, not added at the end.
