Web Application Developer Needed
Budget: £1,500 – £3,000 GBP
I'm in search of a skilled full stack developer to create a web application. I'm looking for someone who understands the nuances of web application development and UI/UX principles.
The web app will also be used on iPad so will need to be iPad friendly and we may even opt for an iOS app later.
