Hey! I'm Mykyta a mobile app developer, react native developer, and full stack developer with 10+ years of experience and 32 successfully released apps. My specialty is end-to-end mobile app development and creating high-performance cross-platform applications for wellness companies, startup projects, and SaaS businesses that actually move the needle. One of my apps earned App of the Day on the App Store. Another helped a startup raise $750k in seed funding. I've scaled products to 100K+ active users and consistently delivered 30%+ growth in user retention. That's not a pitch - that's a track record. 🏄 Why I'm the React Native Expert You're Looking For As a mobile developer, I build apps that feel truly native, not like a cross-platform compromise. Whether you're comparing React Native vs Flutter, need a hybrid approach, or want a flutter developer perspective to make the right framework choice, I help you pick the stack that fits your goals, timeline, and budget. I've shipped apps across iOS and Android using react native, Expo, TypeScript, and JavaScript, handling everything from architecture to App Store deployment. 💻 Full Stack Developer & Web Developer End-to-End Ownership As a full stack developer, I don't just hand off a mobile app and disappear. I own the entire product lifecycle, from web app development to mobile deployment: - Mobile: React Native, Expo, TypeScript, JavaScript, React Navigation, Redux/Flux, GraphQL, Axios, Reanimated, Lottie, Animated, i18Next - Backend & Cloud: Node.js, Nest.js, AWS, Firebase, Supabase, PostgreSQL, MongoDB - APIs, Analytics & Media: Stripe, PayPal, Segment, Appsflyer, DataDog, Sentry, WebRTC, Chart, Image Crop, Video, Push notifications - Auth, Security & Core: Firebase Auth, Auth0, Supabase, KYC/Onfido, React Native Gesture Handler, Device Info, Google Services - DevOps: CI/CD pipelines, Docker, AWS S3, CodePush, Appcenter As a react developer and nextjs developer as well, I complement every mobile product with robust React / Next.js frontends and Node.js-powered backends, so you get one partner for the full stack, not an agency or five freelancers you have to coordinate. 🤖 AI-Powered App Development AI is no longer optional. I build intelligent mobile features that feel natural - LLM integrations, smart recommendations, predictive UX, and personalization layers that make your product stand out. Whether you're a startup or scaling a SaaS product, having an expert in AI-native mobile development on your side is a real advantage. 🚀 MVP & Product Launch - My Specialty I've built MVPs from zero to App Store as an android developer and iOS expert more times than I can count. My process: - Clear milestones and rapid iterations for faster time to market - Secure authentication and scalable user management - UX/UI that converts and retains, I've won Dribbble Awards for this - Post-launch support so your product keeps evolving Clients come to me as a trusted full stack developer partner - not just a coder-for-hire. I've helped businesses double their GPM and achieve at least 42% ROI on their mobile investment. ⚙️ Who I Work With I'm a great fit if you're building: - A React Native cross-platform app for iOS & Android - A SaaS mobile product with a Node.js or Firebase backend - An AI-powered mobile experience -A wellness or health app (deep niche experience) - A web application alongside your mobile product as a web developer who understands mobile-first thinking If you've been evaluating a flutter developer or a full stack developer who can own your entire product lifecycle, I'd love to learn more about your project. I also regularly consult on architecture decisions for teams choosing between React Native, Flutter, and native (kotlin / swift), so even if your stack isn't finalized, that's a great starting point for a conversation. 🛠️ A Note on Stack Flexibility Over 10+ years as a mobile app developer and web developer, I've worked alongside teams using PHP/Laravel backends, and I understand how to build seamless API layers that connect any backend to a React Native frontend. If your existing backend is built on Laravel, Python, or another stack, that's not a blocker; it's just an integration challenge. 📱 Core Expertise ✔️ React Native & Expo - cross-platform mobile app developer ✔️ Full Stack Developer - Node.js, AWS, Firebase, Supabase ✔️ Web Developer & React Developer - Next.js, REST & GraphQL APIs ✔️ Flutter & React Native comparison consulting ✔️ AI app development - LLM integrations and smart UX ✔️ SaaS MVP launch - from wireframe to 100K users ✔️ App Store & Google Play deployment - 32 apps shipped Let's build something that matters. Drop me a message and tell me what you're working on. I'll give you my honest take within 24 hours.

Belas, Sintra, Portugal
I’m a senior software developer from Portugal with more than 20 years of experience building commercial desktop and mobile applications. I help teams build, stabilize, refactor, and extend products that involve real technical complexity. My work is focused on desktop and mobile software where senior technical judgment matters: Qt/C++ applications, native iOS and Android apps, performance-sensitive features, media and audio/video pipelines, computer vision, hardware integration, OS-level behavior, and long-term maintainability. I have worked on commercial products used by real customers, including projects such as Rocketbook - Document Scanning, Triller - Music Video Social Network, ROVR Radio - Audio Production & Dashboard, Toby - AI Real-Time Audio Translation, iContact - Camera Widget, VideoShop - Video Composition, iGreet - Augmented Reality Greeting Cards, LeanStreamer - Multiple Audio Encoding Streaming Tool, BigRoom - Automated AI Editor, and other desktop and mobile applications that required reliable implementation and careful technical decision-making. Clients usually hire me when they need help with: • building a desktop or mobile product properly from the ground up • refactoring an existing codebase without unnecessary rewrite risk • solving platform-specific issues that are blocking progress or release • implementing complex native features involving camera, audio, video, files, hardware, or OS APIs • improving architecture, maintainability, performance, and stability • adding senior technical depth to an existing team or codebase My core expertise includes Qt/C++, desktop software, native iOS and Android development, software architecture, refactoring, performance optimization, media processing, computer vision, and hardware or platform-level integration. I’m especially well suited for products that already exist and now need to be improved carefully. That may mean stabilizing a codebase, modernizing architecture, solving difficult technical issues, or extending the product in a way that remains clean and maintainable. I care about building the right foundation early, keeping the codebase understandable, and making technical decisions that still make sense in the long run. If your product already exists and needs senior technical help to move forward safely, I’d be glad to discuss it.

I’m a Unity developer working with C#, mainly focused on gameplay systems like abilities, progression, UI, and core game logic. I’ve built features from scratch and also worked inside existing projects, so I’m comfortable both creating systems and improving what’s already there. I’ve worked on multiplayer and system-heavy features, and I care a lot about making things feel smooth, responsive, and easy to iterate on. I also use tools like ChatGPT and Claude to speed up development when it makes sense, while keeping everything clean and properly structured. If you need help building or refining gameplay systems, feel free to reach out.
