Experienced app developers only Must be able to show 5-10 relevant apps you have developed. Please don’t mention due to NDA you can’t show the apps you have developed. I’m building a mobile-first social platform where everything revolves around sharing short-form videos. Users will be able to record or upload clips, add captions, tag locations or friends, then publish to a central feed their followers can scroll in an endless, full-screen player. Because video is the sole media type, the interface, storage, and bandwidth strategy should be fully optimised for fast encoding, adaptive streaming, and smooth playback on both Wi-Fi and cellular connections. Beyond regular video posts, I need two headline features: • Live streaming – creators can go live straight from the camera screen, with real-time viewer comments and basic moderation controls. When a stream ends, it should optionally save as a replay in the profile. • Stories – 24-hour ephemeral videos that appear in a swipeable carousel at the top of the feed. After the expiry window they vanish automatically. Core components I expect: • Native or high-performance cross-platform app for iOS and Android • Secure sign-up/login (email, phone, or social auth) and standard community features such as follow/unfollow, likes, threaded comments, and push notifications • Scalable backend with cloud storage/CDN for video files, HLS/DASH streaming, and database for user data • Admin dashboard to monitor content, flag abuse, and view analytics • Clean, modern UI/UX mock-ups before development begins • Source code, API documentation, and a short hand-over session at delivery Acceptance criteria: videos load in under two seconds on a 4G network, live streams run for at least one hour without buffer drops, and stories disappear exactly 24 hours after posting. Integration tests and a small beta release on TestFlight/Google Play Internal Track will confirm stability. Feel free to propose your preferred stack (e.g., Swift/Kotlin with AWS MediaConvert, or Flutter/React Native plus Firebase) as long as it meets these performance goals and can grow to millions of users.

Hi there, I can show similar social and communication applications that I have worked on and can build your complete short-form video platform with stories, live streaming, creator tools, social engagement features, and scalable backend infrastructure. In this kind of application, video processing, streaming performance, content delivery, and real-time interactions are crucial. Therefore, I will start with the overall architecture, video storage strategy, streaming infrastructure, feed performance optimization, and scalable backend design to ensure smooth playback and future growth. Then I will develop the short-video feed, stories module, live streaming system, comments, notifications, follow system, moderation tools, and admin dashboard while maintaining a polished mobile-first user experience. I would request to connect once and share any reference platforms or feature priorities so I can show relevant applications and provide an accurate timeline and development roadmap. Thanks, Rahul A.

Hi, I build modern JavaScript apps end to end — React/Vue on the front and Node/Express (or Nest) on the back, in TypeScript where it helps. I focus on responsive, fast UIs, clean component structure, and reliable APIs, no page-builder shortcuts. I'll lock down the scope and key user flows first, then ship in reviewable increments with working previews so you're never guessing about progress. Performance, state management, and clean code are the defaults, not extras. To give you an accurate plan, could you tell me [the core feature] and whether this is a fresh build or an existing codebase I'd be extending? Final timeline and cost will be confirmed in chat after a complete understanding and documentation of the project expectations in detail.

Hi, Your project is a serious video-first social platform, and I understand you need developers who can show real relevant app work, not generic claims. I can help build a high-performance iOS and Android app with short-form video recording, upload, captions, tagging, follow system, likes, threaded comments, push notifications, stories, live streaming, replay saving, and an admin dashboard for moderation and analytics. For the stack, I would recommend React Native or Flutter for fast cross-platform delivery, paired with a scalable backend using Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, cloud storage, CDN, and a dedicated video pipeline for encoding, HLS playback, adaptive streaming, and fast feed loading. For live streaming, I can integrate a reliable streaming provider or AWS based workflow depending on budget and scale targets. I would start with UI/UX mockups, then build the video feed, upload pipeline, stories, live streaming, admin tools, testing, and beta release through TestFlight and Google Play Internal Track. Best, Justin
