A good web application must do more than look polished. It should load quickly, handle data correctly, remain stable as features are added, and stay understandable for anyone working on the code later.
For the past 5+ years, I have built and maintained full-stack web applications using JavaScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, Express.js, MongoDB, MySQL, and Three.js. I work across the complete development cycle, from planning application structure and database flow to building front-end interfaces, developing APIs, creating interactive 3D web experiences, testing features, and preparing applications for deployment.
𝐌𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐬:
▪️ Full-stack JavaScript development
▪️ React and Next.js front-end development
▪️ Node.js and Express.js back-end development
▪️ MERN stack web applications
▪️ Three.js and interactive 3D web development
▪️ WebGL-based 3D experiences and animations
▪️ 3D product visualization for websites
▪️ MongoDB and MySQL database integration
▪️ REST API development and third-party API integration
▪️ User authentication and role-based access
▪️ Responsive dashboards, portals, and web applications
▪️ Feature development for existing applications
▪️ Bug fixing, code refactoring, and performance optimization
▪️ Git-based version control
I can also integrate Three.js into React and Next.js applications to create interactive 3D sections, product showcases, animated website experiences, 3D landing pages, and custom WebGL-based interfaces while keeping performance and responsiveness in mind.
Before development begins, I review the required features, data flow, user roles, technical requirements, and possible edge cases. For Three.js projects, I also consider model complexity, animation requirements, browser performance, loading speed, and mobile responsiveness before implementation.
Depending on the project, I can deliver a complete full-stack web application, build an individual front-end or back-end component, develop an interactive Three.js experience, integrate APIs, create database structures, or improve an existing React, Next.js, Node.js, MERN, or Three.js application.
You will receive readable code, an organized project structure, tested functionality, setup documentation, and regular progress updates throughout development.
If you are building a new web application, an interactive 3D website, a Three.js product experience, or improving an existing JavaScript application, send me your project scope, designs, 3D assets, or repository overview. I will review the technical requirements and outline the most practical next steps for development.

✅ Hi there! I'm Don Russell, a full-stack wordpress and shopify developer based in Westchester, New York. With more than 12 years of experience in WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, and React JS, I am helping businesses to create user friendly and high performing websites that drive conversions.
I don't just build websites, I help build solutions that work for your businesses. Whether it is a custom theme, a plugin, a Shopify store, or a fully optimized web app, I have you covered.
Let’s dive into what I can do for you:
I am experienced in following languages & Tools:
✓ HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Core PHP
✓ React JS, Node JS, Liquid Shopify
✓ Git, GitHub, Bitbucket
✓ jQuery, Bootstrap, Tailwind, Ajax
✅ WordPress:
I'm experienced in delivering customized WordPress solutions that cater to your specific needs. From custom themes and plugin development to advanced website building with tools like Elementor Pro, Divi, Oxygen Builder, and Gutenberg.
I guarantee your site will be functional and visually stunning. Whether it’s WooCommerce customization like cart, checkout, shipping methods, ensuring your site is virus free, SSL setup, and site security enhancements, I got you covered.
I’m also experienced in seamless API integrations, including WordPress REST API and third-party tools, to extend your site’s functionality. If you have designs in Figma, PSD, or XD, I can transform them into fully responsive and dynamic custom WordPress themes that align perfectly with your vision.
✅ Shopify:
I also have years of experience in developing and customizing online storefronts for Shopify development, creating seamless eCommerce experiences tailored to your brand. From building custom Shopify 2.0 themes all the way to advanced theme customization using Liquid code.
I can ensure your store is optimized for performance and functionality. Whether you need app integrations like loyalty programs or subscription products, or API setups for CRM tools such as HubSpot and MailChimp, I can handle it all. Checkout extensibility and designing custom sections at the storefront level are among my specialties, which further improve user experience and sales.
✅ React+Node.js:
As a React and Node.js developer, I craft interactive web applications with a focus on UI/UX design that engages users and delivers results. I excel in API development and integration, ensuring seamless communication between systems, and optimizing performance through database integration and cutting-edge techniques. Let’s build solutions that are scalable, efficient, and tailored to your business needs!
✅ Website Migration:
In order to ensure your website is moved smoothly and safely, I offer a complete website migration service. Whether it's moving one server to another, local test server to a live site environment or some other combination, my process prevents any loss in operating time that might happen during migration.
Using manually managed migrations techniques means that I take care to ensure that every single detail is moved over. This covers files and databases relevant to your website, system configuration files including those for the various systems dependencies. If you need a website migrated, I'm your guy!
✅ Other Services:
✓ Database optimization, malware scans, plugin updates
✓ Email and hosting setup, domain configuration, DKIM/SPF records, backups
✓ ADA compliance and SEO implementation
✅ Why Work With Me?
When you choose to work with me, you’re not just hiring a developer — you’re partnering with a Top-Rated Plus Developer on Upwork with a 100% job success score. With over 11 years of experience, I specialize in delivering responsive, secure, and error-free websites that meet your business needs.
I’m available Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm EST, ensuring clear communication and timely project updates. Plus, I don’t stop at project delivery—I offer ongoing support to keep your website running smoothly long after completion. Let’s collaborate to bring your vision to life!
I know how critical it is to capture attention online. A poorly designed or slow website can cost you leads and sales. Let me help you create a website that stands out and gets results.
Let’s jump on a call to discuss your project goals—whether it's a big project or a small task, I’m here to help.
I'm looking forward to working with you!

Building successful software isn't just about writing code—it's about solving business problems with the right technology.
I'm a Senior JavaScript Developer with 8+ years of experience helping startups, founders, and growing businesses build scalable web and mobile applications using React, React Native, Next.js, Node.js, and TypeScript.
Whether you're launching an MVP, modernising an existing product, scaling your platform, or extending your engineering team, I focus on delivering clean, maintainable solutions that are ready for production.
My expertise includes:
• React & Next.js applications
• React Native (iOS & Android)
• Node.js backend development & REST APIs
• SaaS platforms & MVP development
• Third-party API integrations
• Authentication, payments & real-time features
• Performance optimisation & bug fixing
• Cloud services including AWS, Firebase and Supabase
As AI becomes part of modern software, I also help businesses integrate practical AI features into their existing products using OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, RAG, MCP, and intelligent automation—always with a focus on real business value rather than unnecessary complexity.
I believe good software should be easy to maintain, scalable as your business grows, and enjoyable for users. That's why I write clean code, communicate clearly, and treat every project as a long-term product rather than a short-term task.
If you're looking for a JavaScript developer who can take ownership, contribute ideas, and build reliable web or mobile applications, I'd be happy to discuss your project.

If you're building an AI powered product and need someone who can own the full stack
from LLM architecture to production UI you're in the right place.
I'm a Senior AI Full Stack Engineer with 8+ years of experience designing and shipping
systems that combine deep AI backends with polished, performant frontends.
My stack: Python (FastAPI, Django) · Node.js · Next.js · TypeScript · React ·
LangChain · LangGraph · OpenAI · Claude · Pinecone · PostgreSQL · AWS
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT I BUILD
─────────────────────────────────────────
→ AI Full Stack Applications
Next.js + Python backends with real-time LLM streaming, auth, and multi-tenancy
→ RAG & Knowledge Systems
Hybrid retrieval (dense + sparse), reranking, embedding optimization, citations
→ Agentic AI Systems
Tool-calling agents with memory, orchestration layers, and reflection loops
→ Scalable API Backends
FastAPI / Node.js microservices, async pipelines, RBAC, REST & GraphQL
→ Compliant Enterprise AI
HIPAA-ready healthcare AI, FinTech-grade secure backends
─────────────────────────────────────────
PRODUCTION SYSTEMS I'VE SHIPPED
─────────────────────────────────────────
✔ AI clinical documentation agent — HIPAA-compliant, EHR-integrated, in active use
✔ Enterprise RAG platform — hybrid search over structured + unstructured data at scale
✔ AI SEO intelligence SaaS — semantic analysis across billions of documents
✔ Geospatial risk engine — PostGIS + H3 + real-time scoring for PropTech client
✔ Autonomous ingestion agents — schema drift detection, background orchestration
✔ AI marketing SaaS — website and campaign generation from natural language prompts
✔ Secure multi-tenant SaaS — role-based access, audit logging, enterprise deployment
─────────────────────────────────────────
FULL STACK AI — WHAT THAT MEANS
─────────────────────────────────────────
Most AI engineers can't build the frontend.
Most frontend engineers can't architect the AI layer.
I do both — and I connect them cleanly:
- Python AI backend → FastAPI / LangGraph / async inference pipelines
- Node.js middleware → BFF layers, webhooks, queue workers, integrations
- Next.js frontend → Server components, streaming UI, real-time AI interfaces
- Vector + Relational DB → Pinecone, PostgreSQL, Redis, Elasticsearch
- Cloud → AWS (EC2, Lambda, S3, RDS), Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD
─────────────────────────────────────────
HOW I WORK
─────────────────────────────────────────
I don't prototype and disappear. I take projects through:
Architecture → MVP → Production Hardening → Monitoring → Scale
You get: clean documentation, maintainable code, and a partner who communicates clearly
and moves fast.
─────────────────────────────────────────
LET'S WORK TOGETHER
─────────────────────────────────────────
Send me:
- What you're building
- Your timeline and budget
I'll respond within 24 hours and tell you exactly how I'd approach it.
