Freelance Next.js developer for founders and small teams
I am Islam Abdelzaher, a senior full-stack developer with 10 years of experience. I build complete products in Next.js, React, TypeScript and Supabase, and I stay accountable for every layer from the database to the deploy.
What I build with Next.js
Production web applications on the Next.js App Router with strict TypeScript: server components for data-heavy screens, client components only where interaction needs them, and a PostgreSQL schema designed up front.
My usual backend is Supabase: authentication, row-level security, realtime, storage and PostgreSQL. I deploy on Vercel. When a project needs a separate Node.js service, I build that too.
Why founders hire one Next.js developer
- One accountable owner
- Product definition, UI design, frontend, backend and deployment sit with the same person. Nothing is lost in a handoff, because there is no handoff.
- Design included
- Every engagement includes design. An approved Figma file is welcome but not required.
- Fixed scope, fixed price
- Scope and price are agreed in writing before work starts. You know the number and the date before you commit.
- Plain communication
- You get a fit or no-fit answer within 48 hours, and a free 30-minute discovery call before any commitment.
Next.js products already in production
- An investment and venture-builder platform with cohort dashboards and pitch tracking (Next.js, TypeScript).
- A bilingual Arabic and English crowdfunding platform for Saudi heritage restoration.
- A bilingual heritage e-commerce store with Stripe checkout.
- An agricultural marketplace in Jordan with five-role access control, on Next.js, PostgreSQL and Supabase.
- An on-demand booking platform in Alexandria on Supabase Realtime, and a clinic booking and payments platform in Egypt with Paymob.
How an engagement works
- Send your idea and budget on the start page.
- I reply within 48 hours with a fit or no-fit answer.
- We hold a free 30-minute discovery call, then I write a fixed-price scope.
- I build it: 7 to 14 days for the Spark and Launch packages, scoped separately for larger platforms.
- 50% deposit to start, 50% on delivery, followed by 30 days of post-launch support.
When I am not the right fit
I work with a limited number of clients at a time and I am one person. If you need a large parallel team, several specialists at once, or an ongoing staffed department, an agency is the better answer, and I would rather tell you that on the first call.
