KandiTag

An NFC "kandi" bead with a chip inside — tap it with any phone and its living passport opens: every festival, every trade, every memory. Built 0→1, end-to-end.

KandiTag iOS app showing a bead's living passport
Overview

A 0→1 consumer product I built end-to-end: a Swift iOS app, a React web experience, and a Firebase backend. Tap a chipped kandi bead and its page opens instantly in any browser — no app required. Post memories stamped by show, trade the bead onward, and watch its trail grow across owners and festivals.

What I did
  • Built the full stack — Swift iOS app, React web, Firebase backend
  • Designed the NFC tap-to-open "living passport" — opens in any browser, no app required
  • Shipped the trade & trail system: memories stamped by show, passed between owners
  • Took it 0→1 from concept to launch — product, brand, and engineering
