CuratEd

A search interface over YouTube built at Lead Techies Collab & Upskill, where I led the frontend team. Instead of returning everything that loosely matches a query, CuratEd filters results down to videos that are directly relevant to it.

YouTube search optimises for engagement, not relevance. Learners searching for a specific topic wade through tangential content, compilations and clickbait before finding what they need.

• Led the frontend team: set component conventions, split work into reviewable pieces and owned the final integration.
• Designed a clean, fast results view that keeps focus on the query rather than the feed.
• Built a responsive layout that holds up from small phones to wide desktops.
