Prototype-to-production guidance for React apps

I review quickly built React prototypes and MVPs and provide guidance on how to make them production-ready.

What I do

My reviews are especially useful for projects that started as fast prototypes or AI-assisted builds, where early architectural patterns weren’t designed to survive long-term growth.Examples include:

  • state management and data flow that becomes overly complex

  • coupling or duplication that slow future changes

  • performance traps (unnecessary re-renders, expensive lists, bundle bloat)

  • patterns that make testing, onboarding, or refactoring harder than necessary

I focus on guidance over implementation or refactoring, helping identify and prioritize what needs to be shored up before a prototype or MVP is treated as a production system.

What you'll receive

After the review is complete, I'll send you a report containing:

  • a concise written report outlining key risks and priorities

  • clear guidance to support next decisions

  • a brief video walkthrough explaining the findings

Reviews focus on a single React repo or a clearly defined area of a repo. The output is easy to use to guide future technical decisions, and easy to share with collaborators.
