Full-Stack Application Build & Support

I need a versatile full-stack developer who can take an idea from blank repo to live deployment. The job covers everything: shaping the architecture, building a responsive front-end, wiring a secure back-end API with a relational database, and wrapping it all in automated tests and CI/CD so the codebase is production-ready.

The exact feature map will be finalised together, but expect staples such as secure user authentication, the option to plug in a payment gateway, and a lightweight analytics dashboard. I’m flexible on tools—React or Vue on the client, Node.js, Django, or Laravel on the server—as long as the stack is mainstream, well-documented, and deploys smoothly to AWS (or a comparable cloud).

Deliverables
• Clean, well-structured repo with README and setup notes
• Deployed staging instance for hands-on review
• Short hand-over video or call walking through code layout, environment variables, and deployment steps

Regular Git commits, clear communication, and production-grade code will be the acceptance criteria. Drop links to similar projects in your bid so I can gauge fit quickly.
