About this service

Summary

I specialise in transforming your Figma or Sketch designs into fully functional apps ready to be published to the App Store or Play Store using the low-code platform Bravo Studio, which can integrate with any backend of your choice.

Process

1. Initial consultation & requirement gathering
We’ll start with a deep-dive call to understand your app’s vision, goals, and success metrics. I’ll review your Figma design—or even a rough sketch or simple idea if you don’t yet have a design—and help refine the feature set, user flows, and technical needs so we’re fully aligned before development begins.
2. Project planning & proposal
I’ll prepare a detailed project plan outlining the development process, milestones, and timelines. This includes a breakdown of core features and optional enhancements, plus projected Bravo Studio and Xano subscription tiers if backend services are required. You’ll receive this proposal to review and approve before we start.
3. Design integration & frontend development
If you already have a polished design, I’ll translate it pixel-perfectly into Bravo Studio. If not, I can create the UI/UX myself—crafting user journeys, visual styles, and interactive components that match your brand. The result is a functional, responsive app interface ready for backend connections.
4. Backend setup & API integration
For apps that need dynamic content, user accounts, payments, or AI features, I’ll guide you in creating a Xano account in your name and configure a scalable backend. This includes database architecture, API endpoints, authentication, and third-party integrations (e.g., Stripe or OpenAI) to power advanced functionality.
5. Testing & revisions
I’ll conduct thorough testing across devices to ensure smooth performance, clean data handling, and an intuitive user experience. You’ll receive test builds to explore and provide feedback, and we’ll iterate until the app is polished and production-ready.
6. Final delivery & ownership transfer
After final approval, I’ll hand over all project assets—including the updated Figma file, Bravo Studio project, and Xano configuration—ensuring every account is set up under your ownership for complete control and future updates.
7. Launch preparation (optional)
If you plan to publish to the App Store or Google Play, I can assist with developer account setup, metadata preparation, and submission best practices to make the launch process smooth and efficient.
8. Post-delivery support & future collaboration
I offer a period of post-delivery support to handle any questions or minor adjustments as you test or launch your app. Beyond that, we can discuss ongoing maintenance, new features, or growth experiments to continue evolving your product.

FAQs

  • I want to build an AI-powered app (chatbot, agent, conversational interface). Can you help?

    Yes. I specialize in integrating AI features—like GPT-powered chat, custom agents, and voice interactions—directly into Bravo Studio apps. Whether you have a clear AI concept or just an idea, I can guide you from defining the use case to setting up the backend logic in Xano and connecting APIs such as OpenAI or Claude.

  • I’m a designer—can you work directly from my files?

    Yes. I can take your finished Figma/Sketch (or other) designs and focus purely on turning them into a functional Bravo Studio app, while advising on technical feasibility when needed.

  • I have no design skills—can you handle the design too?

    Absolutely. As a product/UI-UX designer and developer, I can create the entire look and feel from scratch. You can start with a simple sketch, rough wireframe, or even just a verbal concept and we’ll shape it together.

  • What if I only have a rough idea?

    No problem. We can start with an ideation session to define the app’s purpose, key features, and user flows before moving into design and development.

  • Will I still own everything if you design and develop it?

    Yes. All design files (Figma), Bravo Studio projects, and Xano setups are created under your accounts so you retain full ownership.

  • How do you ensure a polished user experience?

    I combine my background in product strategy and UI/UX design to craft interfaces that are not only beautiful but also intuitive and aligned with your business goals.

  • đź“‚ Full ownership transfer

    Upon completion, you’ll have full ownership and control of your app. I’ll guide you in creating all the necessary accounts (Figma, Bravo Studio, Xano, etc.) under your name so that everything is set up in your own credentials.
