FAQs
Do you work with existing codebases?
Yes! I can build from scratch or integrate into existing systems. If integrating, I'll need access to your repo and a brief technical overview of your current stack.
What's your typical timeline?
40 hours over 2-3 weeks depending on complexity. A simple CRUD API might take 2 weeks; a complex system with multiple integrations might take 3-4 weeks.
Do you provide ongoing support?
Yes. All projects include 30 days of free bug fixes and minor adjustments post-delivery. I'm available to answer questions via email/Slack during that period.
What about database choice?
PostgreSQL by default (proven, scalable, my specialty). Happy to discuss alternatives (MongoDB, etc.) if your use case demands it.
Do you handle deployment?
I provide Docker setup and deployment guides. I can also help configure AWS/GCP if needed, or you can deploy using your preferred infrastructure.
