Senior developer · Static and Full Stack Websites · UK
Web development that ships dependable websites
Founders, startups, and technical teams need a reliable web developer who can own complexity, reduce rework, and keep performance and architecture aligned as you scale. I build fast, maintainable interfaces and full-stack features with clear boundaries, strong typing where it helps, and handover what your team can run with.
Pricing
Clear starting points for common engagements. Final quotes depend on scope, risk, and timeline; I will always respond with a crisp proposal, not a generic rate card.

Positioning
I care most about what your customers need from the site: clear journeys, fast first paint, copy and layout that answer real questions, and a codebase that stays easy to change when priorities shift. Fancy stacks are optional; simplicity is the default with fewer dependencies, fewer surprises, and honest trade-offs called out early.
A lot of that work is static-site shaped: pre-rendered pages, islands only where interactivity earns its keep, and hosting that is boring in a good way. You will get senior judgement on structure, accessibility, and performance without the overhead of a permanent hire which is ideal for launches, marketing sites, content-led products, or a calm rebuild after something overgrown. React, Next.js, and Astro are all in play; the choice follows the need, not the trend.
Services offered
- Managed websites: hosting, domains, emails, security, and monitoring
- Frontend development: component systems, accessibility-minded UI, state and data-loading patterns that hold up at scale
- Full-stack apps: pragmatic API design, auth flows, integrations, especially with static sites, serverless-friendly APIs, and headless setups
- Static sites / headless CMS: structured content, preview workflows, SEO-friendly rendering models
- Landing pages : campaign pages, clear CTAs, and fast static delivery for launches
- Web animations : transitions that clarify hierarchy, feedback that feels instant, and motion that survives real devices
Why hire me
- Performance-focused by default: speed is a feature, not an afterthought
- Clean, maintainable code: naming, boundaries, and tests where they earn their keep
- Strong UX sense: judgment about what should feel instant, what can wait, and what will confuse users
- Startup-friendly: direct updates, scoped milestones, and decisions documented so the team stays aligned
Process
- Discovery. Goals, constraints, analytics, and the parts of the product that hurt revenue or retention.
- Build. Incremental delivery with reviewable chunks; less “big bang rewrite”, more steady progress you can ship in stages when needed.
- Iterate. Instrument, learn, tighten loops. Performance and UX improvements land continuously, not only at the end.
- Launch. Hardening: monitoring, rollback strategy, SEO checks for public surfaces, and handover notes.
Tech stack
React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Astro, Supabase (or similar Postgres or MySQL backends), Vercel, Netlify, and Cloudflare deployments, and typical CI/CD flows. I integrate with your existing choices rather than forcing a rewrite for ideology.
At a glance: tools that show up often (not every stack uses every item):
