iOS/Android School App Development

Over the next 8–12 weeks I need a contract developer who can take a school-wide mobile app from concept to store release. The core feature set is already defined:

• Student Information System – secure profiles, grades, schedules and basic demographic data
• Attendance Tracking – daily check-in/out for students and teachers, with push alerts for absences
• Communication Portal – in-app messaging and announcement feeds that reach students, parents and staff

Students, teachers and parents will each log in to a role-based interface, so experience designing multi-persona flows is important. The first release targets iOS and Android; a web companion can remain out of scope for now if that keeps the sprint velocity tight.

Preferred stack is open—Flutter, React Native or fully native Swift/Kotlin are all acceptable as long as performance is smooth and the final builds pass App Store and Play Store review. Expect to integrate with the school’s existing REST/GraphQL endpoints and to set up Firebase (or a comparable service) for push notifications and basic analytics.

Deliverables
1. Clickable prototype approved by week 2
2. Production-ready iOS & Android codebases in a shared repo
3. Connected staging environment hitting our test APIs
4. App Store & Play Store submissions with release notes and screenshots
5. Handover packet: build scripts, environment variables template and brief maintenance guide

Acceptance will be based on feature parity with the spec above, successful test flight/beta deployment and zero critical bugs at hand-off. If this timeline and scope fit your skill set, let’s get started right away.
