I plan to launch a full-featured social-networking web application and need a skilled software developer to turn the concept into a secure, scalable product. This is pure software development: no mobile or desktop versions for now, just a modern, browser-based experience that works smoothly on both desktop and mobile screens. Core scope The platform should let users sign up, create profiles, post updates, follow one another, and exchange real-time messages. A clean, responsive UI plus a robust back-end API are essential. I’m open to the stack you prefer—React, Vue, Angular, or similar on the front end, and Node, Django, Laravel, or equivalent on the server—as long as the code is well-structured, well-documented, and ready for future scaling. Key deliverables • Complete source code in a private repository • Database schema and migration scripts • REST or GraphQL API documentation • Deployment instructions for a mainstream cloud provider • Brief hand-off session or written guide to walk me through setup and maintenance Acceptance criteria The finished app must pass basic penetration tests, load smoothly with at least 500 concurrent users in staging, and meet WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility guidelines. Once these boxes are checked and the repository is handed off, the project is considered complete. Tell me in a short message which tech stack you’d choose and a rough timeline, and we can move forward.
