One person, the whole stack, your app on a real phone.
Want to hire someone to build your app? I’m a solo developer who takes iOS and Android apps from idea to App Store end-to-end. Design, code, Firebase backend, AI features, the store paperwork, and the privacy page nobody else wants to write.
iOS & Android apps
One React Native + Expo codebase. Real EAS builds, TestFlight, App Store, Play Store. Native modules when the feature actually needs them.
Firebase backends
Auth (Apple, Google, email), Firestore with security rules per user, Cloud Storage, and Cloud Functions for anything that shouldn’t live on the device.
AI inside mobile
OpenAI vision and chat, streaming responses to a phone, structured outputs, prompt design. Done in a way that respects API data policies.
Product design
Typography-led UI, light or dark, calm by default. Custom — no template look. I design the screens I’m going to build.
Privacy & legal copy
Real privacy policies and terms (not template paste). Honest data-flow diagrams, account deletion that actually deletes, no third-party trackers.
App Store submission
Bundle ID, certificates, App Store Connect, screenshots, review prep, RevenueCat for IAP, and the back-and-forth with Apple review.
Small marketing sites
Next.js + Tailwind landing pages and docs sites. Deployed on Vercel. This site is the demo — built in a weekend.
Rescue & finishing work
Inherited a half-built RN app? Got the prototype but no path to the store? I can take a project the last mile.
Do you build for both iOS and Android?+
Yes. React Native + Expo means one codebase ships to both. Some of my own apps are iOS-only at launch — that’s a scope choice, not a tooling limit.
Will I own the code?+
Yes. You get the Expo project, the Firebase project, and the App Store / Play Store listings under your account.
Do you do design or only code?+
Both. I design the screens I’m going to build, in the same week. If you already have a designer, I’ll work from their files.
How do payments work?+
Fixed price for sprints, milestone-based for v1 builds, monthly for retainers. 50% upfront for new clients.
What about ongoing infrastructure cost?+
Firebase covers most apps’ needs on the Spark or Blaze tier. I’ll forecast it before you sign anything.
Can you take over a half-finished project?+
Yes — rescue work is a real fit. I’ll audit the codebase first and tell you honestly whether to keep going or restart.
