You built it in Lovable. I make it ready for real users.
Hire a Lovable developer to make your Lovable, Bolt, Replit, or v0 app ready for real users, in your existing React code. Two-week sprints at $6,000 each.
Send me the repo link. I read the code before we agree on what one sprint covers.
Who this is for
Founders who built most of a web app with Lovable, Bolt, Replit, or v0, and want real users on it.
Founders who want to keep the React code they have. I work in your existing React code.
Founders with funding or revenue. One sprint costs $6,000.
Who it is not for
A few hours of fixes. One sprint is the smallest unit of work.
A rewrite in a new stack.
Design from scratch.
Not sure what is wrong yet? Start with the $500 production audit: a written report in 3 business days.
What production-ready means here
Six checks. Each one has a test that passes or fails.
Auth. A signed-out visitor cannot load a protected page or call a protected API route.
Database access rules. User A cannot read or change the rows of user B, from the app or with a direct call to the database.
Secrets. No service key is in the browser bundle or in the git history.
Billing. A payment, a failed payment, and a cancellation each change the account as your plan says.
SEO and rendering. Public pages send real HTML with a title and a description to a crawler.
Deploy. One merge deploys the app, and you can roll it back.
What one sprint can cover
Three example scopes. Your scope comes after I read the code.
Lock down the data. Access rules on each table that holds user data, and a test user who tries to read the rows of another user and fails.
Move the keys to the server. Find each key in the client code and the git history, rotate the exposed ones, and call paid APIs from server routes only.
Make billing real. One payment provider in live mode, webhooks that update the account, and a cancel flow.
Who does the work
Me. I have shipped production software since 2017. I built the first version of Cyfrin's Updraft in four weeks, and it has since taught 200,000+ students. Read the Updraft case study.
I also build with AI coding agents. Most of DishCost, my recipe costing tool for restaurants, was built that way.
I have no rescue case study to show yet. Judge my work by the six checks above: each one passes or fails in your app.
Words from clients
Justin helped me implement some tricky authentication. The experience was seamless.
He’s calm, professional, always listening and very efficient. His debugging skills were impressive.
Of course, he knows Svelte/kit inside out. I felt I was in good hands. I’d recommend him to anyone.
Justin is a delight to work with.
From the start of the project to the end, he made sure to be on par with the scope and even went beyond our expectations.
What started as a business partnership has now evolved into a close relationship between our two businesses, NerdyJoe and Okupter.
How it works
01 / Scope by email. Send the repo link and the date you want real users on the app. I reply within one business day and say what one sprint can fix.
02 / Start on a sprint Monday. You pay upfront. New sprints start every other Monday.
03 / Mid-sprint sync. One 30-minute call to review what I found and what is fixed.
04 / Deploy. Each fix lands as a small pull request and goes live by the end of week two.
05 / Handover. A written list: what is fixed, how to test it, and what is still open. You own the code from day one.
Price and refund
$6,000 per two-week sprint. The same sprint and the same price as an MVP build. See the full sprint terms.
Something usable after the first sprint. Or I refund it. The first sprint has a full refund if it does not ship something usable.
FAQ
Yes. One sprint is two weeks and $6,000. You can stop after it.
No. I work in your existing React code, so the screens and the data you have stay.
Lovable writes the code. Your app is secure when its sign-in, access rules, and secrets are right. The production audit checks them for $500.
Yes, when the app is React. Send the repo link, and I tell you in one business day.
Work on an app that an AI tool wrote: remove exposed keys, add access rules, and make billing and deploys safe. That is the work of this sprint.
