Full Stack Development
- End-to-end builds with React.js, Next.js, Node.js, and Nest.js
- Clean REST/GraphQL APIs backed by SQL or MongoDB
- Deployed, monitored, and maintained after launch
One person across React/Next.js frontend and Node.js/NestJS/PostgreSQL backend, rather than managing separate frontend and backend hires.
React, Next.js, Node.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL, MongoDB.
Architecture, frontend build, backend/API build, database design, and deployment.
Startups needing one reliable technical owner, agencies needing overflow capacity, and businesses replacing a two-person contractor team with one.
An agency gives you more people, a project manager, and cover if someone is out. You also pay for that layer, and the person you talk to is often not the person writing the code.
A solo full-stack developer means you talk directly to whoever builds it, decisions move faster, and there's no handoff between frontend and backend teams. The trade-off is capacity: one person can't staff five parallel workstreams.
If you need a large team on day one, an agency fits better. If you need one accountable owner for a product, solo usually costs less and moves quicker.
This page is about hiring one developer to own your entire stack, frontend to backend. Looking for a specific application built to spec? See Custom Web Application Development.
Common questions
What's the difference between hiring a full stack developer and hiring separate frontend/backend developers?
One person owning the whole stack means no handoff gaps between frontend and backend decisions — faster iteration, fewer miscommunications.
Do you work hourly, per-project, or on retainer?
All three are available depending on project shape — discussed during scoping.
Can you take over an existing codebase, or only build from scratch?
Both — taking over an existing codebase is just as common as greenfield builds.
What's your typical communication/check-in process during a project?
Regular check-ins through the build, scoped to the project's pace and your preference.
Do you handle deployment and hosting, or just the code?
Deployment is included, not just the code.
