Areeba Shah, frontend developer in Karachi for WordPress, Shopify and PHP

Areeba Shah, Karachi. Open to work, hybrid.

WordPress and Shopify

Custom themes and stores that load fast and fit every screen.

PHP and plugins

Custom plugins and small apps for the jobs a theme can't do.

Custom themes, built to be changed

This is how I think about themes: one setting, changed everywhere. Pick an accent, the corners and a screen size, and watch this whole page follow.

I started with a WordPress and Shopify internship in 2024 and now work as a frontend developer at SolCoders. In between I built client sites, custom plugins and PHP apps, and wrote the audit reports that tell a team what to fix.

Client work

ContextMeter, my browser extension

AI chats get slower and forget things as they fill up, and nothing tells you when that is about to happen. ContextMeter shows how full a ChatGPT or Claude chat is, then helps you carry the important parts into a fresh one.

  • A live gauge that changes colour as the context window fills
  • A one-click handoff summary for starting a new chat
  • Your chats stay on your device

TypeScript, Chrome and Firefox extension, Local-only

ContextMeter gauge open beside a ChatGPT conversation, showing 60 percent of the context window used
