Independent frontend developer shipping bilingual RTL web and mobile apps with React, Next.js, TypeScript, and React Native.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Frontend Developer specializing in React, Next.js, TypeScript, and React Native. I ship production-grade applications independently, owning the full lifecycle from architecture through App Store and Google Play deployment and ongoing maintenance.
Currently, I maintain three live products as the sole developer. I build bilingual (Arabic/English) RTL-first interfaces for web and cross-platform mobile, integrating live third-party APIs, offline caching strategies, and privacy-by-design data handling.
My work is grounded in clean code architecture, component reusability, performance optimization, and technical SEO—covering metadata, Open Graph tags, structured indexing, and Core Web Vitals considerations. I focus on practical user outcomes and accessibility, including dynamic language switching and RTL layout correctness.
I also enjoy turning real development pain points into tools—like a browser-based JSON Type Extractor that converts JSON into clean TypeScript interfaces entirely client-side. With an associate degree from Istanbul Aydin University and multiple front-end focused certifications, I’m motivated to keep building thoughtful, reliable products for MENA and Turkish-market audiences.
