Mobile & Web Development
Production mobile and web applications — the kind that stay running under real load, not prototypes that demo well.
Who this is for
- Products needing both a mobile app and an operational dashboard
- Teams whose prototype now has to hold up under real usage
- Businesses needing real-time features that survive poor connectivity
The problem
The gap between an application that demonstrates well and one that runs in production is mostly made of conditions that do not show up in a demo — unreliable networks, concurrent load, and the state a system finds itself in after running for a month.
Most of the engineering effort in a real product goes into those conditions rather than into the features themselves, and a build that has not accounted for them tends to fail in its first genuinely busy week.
What I build with
Flutter for mobile where one codebase should serve more than one audience; Next.js and Angular for web dashboards where operators need density and oversight; Node.js services behind them; and AWS for the infrastructure they run on.
The Swifpack platform for Tanzania Posts is the clearest example — two Flutter apps, two web dashboards, Node.js services handling real-time transaction load, and an MQTT and Firebase layer built specifically because drivers were on mobile networks that dropped out for minutes at a time.
Designed around the failure cases
The decisions that matter most in a production build are usually about what happens when something is unavailable. Choosing a protocol because it already answers reconnection and offline detection, or separating a live stream from durable state so a cold start is not an empty screen, are the kinds of choices that decide whether a system feels reliable.
That is the same discipline whether the product is a logistics platform or an internal tool. It is also the part that is invisible when everything is working, which is rather the point.
What you get
- The application built, deployed, and running on your infrastructure
- Real-time features where the product needs them
- Infrastructure setup and deployment
- Documentation and handover
Scoped per project depending on surface area and integrations.
When this is the wrong fit
Worth saying plainly rather than finding out after a build starts.
- You need a simple marketing site — that does not need this depth
- The product requirements are not settled enough to build against
