About this service

Summary

I provide comprehensive full stack development services, from design to deployment. This service includes design ideation and implementation, frontend and backend development, API creation, and deployment. Whether you need a dynamic single-page application, custom data visualizations, or a fully functional full stack app, I can deliver a solution tailored to your needs. With my optional AI toolbelt, I can accelerate the development process, delivering results more efficiently.

Process

1. Discovery & Planning

Consultation: Meet to understand project goals, audience, and gather design assets.

Scope: Define design, front/back-end features, APIs, and deployment needs.

Proposal: Present a plan with deliverables, timelines, and pricing. Finalize after feedback.

2. Design & Prototyping

Wireframing: Brainstorm ideas and create basic structure layouts.

High-Fidelity Designs: Build detailed mockups in Figma, applying UI/UX best practices.

Client Review: Refine designs based on feedback until approved.

3. Frontend & Backend Development Planning

Architecture: Plan front-end frameworks (React, Vue) and backend stack (Node.js, Django).

Roadmap: Break down tasks into sprints or phases.

4. Frontend Development

Component Creation: Build reusable components.

Responsive Design: Ensure mobile-friendly, accessible design.

Interactivity: Add animations and data visualizations.

Integration: Connect frontend to backend and APIs.

5. Backend Development

API & Database: Develop REST APIs and design the database schema (MongoDB, PostgreSQL).

Business Logic: Implement core logic (authentication, data processing).

Testing & Security: Test APIs and apply security best practices.

6. Script Development (If Needed)

Web Scraping & Data Analysis: Build custom scripts for data needs.

Integration: Incorporate scripts into the app's frontend or backend.

7. Quality Assurance & Testing

End-to-End Testing: Test all features and workflows.

Cross-Browser Testing: Ensure compatibility across browsers/devices.

Performance: Optimize for speed using lazy loading, caching, etc.

8. Client Review & Iteration

Demo: Present the full application to the client.

Revisions: Make necessary adjustments based on feedback.

9. Deployment & Launch

Deployment: Deploy to platforms like AWS, Netlify. Set up CI/CD pipelines.

Launch Support: Monitor post-launch for any issues.

10. Post-Launch Support (Optional)

Ongoing Maintenance: Offer updates, bug fixes, and new features.

Training: Provide training if needed.

Timeline Example:

Weeks 1-2: Discovery, design, and planning.

Weeks 3-6: Frontend and backend development.

Week 9: Deployment and launch.

FAQs

  • What is included in your Full Stack Design and Development service?

    This service covers the entire process of building a web application, from initial design and prototyping to frontend and backend development, including API creation, script development, and deployment. I also offer optional AI acceleration to expedite certain development tasks.

  • What kind of projects do you specialize in?

    I specialize in building scalable, user-centric web applications. This includes single-page applications (SPAs), data-driven platforms, and custom dashboards with complex functionalities like data visualizations, user authentication, and third-party integrations.

  • How do you handle project communication?

    Clear and consistent communication is key. I provide regular updates through your preferred channels (e.g., Slack, email, or similar) and schedule check-in meetings to discuss progress, address questions, and ensure alignment throughout the project.

  • Do you provide design services, or should I have my designs ready?

    I offer full design services, starting from ideation and wireframing to creating high-fidelity Figma designs. However, if you already have designs ready, I can proceed directly to the implementation phase.

  • How long does it typically take to complete a full stack project?

    The timeline varies depending on the project scope and complexity. A typical full stack project takes around 8-10 weeks from start to finish. We’ll establish a clear timeline during the planning phase to set realistic expectations.

  • How do you ensure the project meets accessibility and performance standards?

    I follow best practices for accessibility (WCAG guidelines) and performance optimization. This includes writing semantic HTML, using ARIA roles, optimizing images and assets, implementing lazy loading, and conducting performance audits using tools like Lighthouse.

  • Can you integrate with third-party APIs and services?

    Yes, I can integrate with a wide range of third-party APIs and services, including payment gateways, social media APIs, and other data providers. We can discuss your specific integration needs during the discovery phase.

  • What tech stack do you use for full stack development?

    For frontend development, I use frameworks like React, Vue, and Angular. For backend development, I use Node.js with Express, Django, or similar frameworks, along with databases like MongoDB and PostgreSQL.

  • What is the Optional AI Acceleration, and how does it benefit my project?

    Optional AI Acceleration involves using AI tools to speed up certain aspects of development, such as automating code generation, optimizing design layouts, or accelerating data processing tasks. This can lead to faster delivery times and enhanced functionality.

  • Do you provide post-launch support and maintenance?

    Yes, I offer ongoing support and maintenance services to keep your application up-to-date and functioning smoothly. This can include updates, bug fixes, performance enhancements, and adding new features.

  • How do you handle revisions during the project?

    I offer multiple revision rounds during the development process to ensure the final product aligns with your vision. We'll review the application at key milestones, incorporating feedback before moving to the next phase.

  • How much do you charge for a full stack project?

    Pricing varies based on the project's scope and complexity. A typical full stack project starts at $10,000, with additional costs for advanced features or extended support. We can discuss a detailed pricing structure after the initial consultation.

  • What if I need changes after the project is completed?

    I understand that projects may evolve post-launch. For any changes needed after completion, I offer support packages or can work on a per-task basis. We can discuss the best option based on your ongoing needs.

  • What if I want to deploy the application on my own hosting environment?

    I can assist with deployment on your chosen hosting environment or provide guidance to ensure a smooth deployment process. If you prefer to manage it yourself, I’ll provide documentation and support to get you started.
