Summary

Title: Convert Existing Responsive React Web App to iOS & Android App Using Capacitor Hi, I have an existing React web application that is already fully responsive and works well on mobile browsers. I want to convert it into native iOS and Android apps using Capacitor. The goal is not to rebuild the app from scratch. The existing React frontend and backend should stay the same. I mainly need someone to package the React app properly for iOS and Android, configure the native projects, test everything, and prepare the apps for App Store and Google Play submission. Requirements: * Strong experience with React * Experience with Capacitor / Ionic Capacitor * Experience building iOS and Android apps from existing web apps * Xcode and Android Studio experience * App Store / Google Play release experience * Good understanding of WebSocket behavior inside mobile apps * Good understanding of login/session handling, localStorage, cookies, and token persistence * Ability to test app behavior when the app is closed, reopened, backgrounded, or loses internet connection Main tasks: * Add Capacitor to the existing React project * Create iOS and Android native projects * Configure app name, bundle ID/package name, icons, and splash screen * Make sure API and WebSocket connections work correctly in the mobile app * Test login persistence after closing and reopening the app * Test WebSocket reconnect behavior * Make sure the app reloads/resyncs important backend data after reconnect or app resume * Build iOS and Android release versions * Help prepare the app for App Store and Google Play submission Important: This is a trading platform, so reliability is very important. The app must correctly handle reconnects, missed WebSocket events, login sessions, and app background/foreground behavior. Please apply only if you have already converted React web apps to iOS/Android apps using Capacitor and can show examples. In your proposal, please explain: 1. Your experience with Capacitor 2. Apps you have published before 3. How you would handle WebSocket reconnect and app resume behavior 4. Estimated time and fixed price
