Digital and artisanal
"… like a dance between order and freedom."
We live in an age of pre-packaged, pre-cooked and packaged solutions.
They save us the effort of choosing and on paper it seems sensible: our brain tries to make the least cognitive effort possible.
Yet in reality it doesn't seem to be enough.
For example, in a professional context in which ready-made SaaS applications seem like a competitor, they fail to be the only possible answer.
It seems clear:
Customers need to stand out.
And that's why your platform is scalable, even if over time it has become bigger and bigger and more complicated. Each customer wants to keep their brand recognizable and so you receive their guidelines to follow + that functionality you hadn't foreseen and for this reason it's not always enough to change the frontend.
As a Fullstack developer, I can take care of integrations with the client’s system as well as a complete re-branding, and I know how to do all of this by juggling the application layers on frameworks like Ruby on Rails and Laravel in PHP or Node.js in JavaScript.
Furthermore you don’t want to be dependent on a single supplier anymore. But it’s hard to find programmers who actually solve problems. And then it’s hard to keep them anyway.
In my case, you look for me just when you need me because I work on a single project at a time, I support your team’s work and I’m there as long as I can be of help.
Usually, you want to keep the programmers separated so they can focus. But then you realize that they are always too overwhelmed. And you can't involve them to evaluate the technical feasibility with the UX designers.
The risk is to sell a customization that is not very feasible. Then it's obvious that the times get longer and the feature is more expensive.
For me, the work starts from the dialogue: talking just to find the right directions together, especially for the UI design which is an iterative process.
This is the moment when I am in close contact with your team of designers, developers, project managers, when we anticipate both the potential tools and the estimates, where the goal is the starting point and the functional requirements are the intermediate milestones to reach it.
Do you already know which service you need?
Make UI/UX concrete
I create the working interface of the prototype or extensions you studied, starting from the ad hoc layout and the workflow designed for users
Apply rebranding
On White-label applications, I replicate the entire version for the customer by applying the adaptation required by their brand
Review reporting
I customize and make available analytical tools, such as dashboards and reports exported to Excel and PDF
How long does it take? This is the question you ask yourself most often when you have to evaluate a development.
As a digital company, you know that it’s essential to maintain constant R&D activity and you are evaluating new technologies. Do you want to launch a new product at an important event? Does the UI need to be modernized? Should it be made more accessible? More usable?
And in all this, you need the technical contribution of a developer.
During our collaboration I refer to your single internal contact, with whom I interface to plan tasks, report the progress, obtain approvals for functional requirements and performed developments.
Tailored analysis
I can also help you with the preliminary evaluation of a customization, which is essential to unlock the customers’ requests and optimize the final execution.
Choose the collaboration that best suits you and write to me to book a slot, tell me about your project and we will plan the work together.
