APPS
INDEPENDENT APP DEVELOPER

Apps people
actually love
using.

I design and build iOS & Android apps end-to-end — from the first sketch to the App Store. Obsessively crafted. Independently made.

ABOUT ME

I build apps the
way I'd want to use them.

I'm Matthieu Decker, an independent developer based in the Pioneer Valley. I build across the full stack — React Native and Expo for mobile, Electron for desktop, NestJS and Supabase on the backend, and whatever frontend framework the project actually calls for.

My five shipped apps span a family operating system with real-time sync across four platforms, a procedural audio web experience driven by AI-generated rituals, a shift worker calendar with rotating pattern support, a cocktail lab built around a triangulation algorithm, and a poetry writing environment with a canvas physics engine. Each one is a production codebase I own end to end.

Independent

User-first always

I prototype interactions before writing a single line of code.

Obsessive iteration

Every release is better than the last. Changelogs read like love letters.

Transparent process

Clients see progress every week. No black boxes.

HOW I WORK

From idea to App Store

A clear, collaborative process — so you always know what happens next.

01

WEEK 1–2

Deep dive into the problem

We map out the user, the context, and the constraints. Research, competitive audit, defining success.

02

WEEK 2–4

Prototype before building

Figma flows, interaction prototypes, user testing. The UI is solved before code starts.

03

WEEK 4–10

Craft every detail

Clean, performant code. Daily builds. Weekly demos so you're never in the dark.

04

WEEK 10–12

Ship with confidence

App Store submission, reviews, launch strategy, and post-launch monitoring.
