Best Full Stack Developer in Chicago for custom websites and web apps.
Looking for the best full stack developer in Chicago? I build websites and operations dashboards for logistics, education and professional services firms.
How I work with Chicago businesses from Dhaka
Chicago is on Central time, 11 hours behind Dhaka in summer and 12 in winter. I work an evening shift, so a 9 am Central call is 8 pm for me.
What Chicago businesses ask me to build
Logistics and freight
Quote requests, shipment status and customer dashboards. I build the screens and the backend rules behind them, with roles for dispatchers and customers.
Education and training
Courses, enrolment and a dashboard for each kind of user. I built the WordPress LMS for Open Alliance Learning, an online education provider, with a separate dashboard for learners, teachers and assessors.
Professional and manufacturing firms
A fast, credible website with enquiry forms and a client area when needed, plus spec catalogs for manufacturers.
Projects I've built, with live sites
Pick a project to see the result and the live site.
Open Alliance Learning
A WordPress LMS and website with separate dashboards for learners, teachers and quality assessors.

Mayabee

What to check before you pick a full stack developer in Chicago
- 01
Live projects to click through
Ask for sites you can use, not screenshots. Mine are Open Alliance Learning, Mayabee, Wrkbase, each with a case study.
- 02
The admin side, not only the website
Orders, users, stock and reports are where a business spends its day. Ask who builds those screens and who keeps them working.
- 03
One person from design to launch
Fewer hand-offs means fewer misunderstandings. I research competitors, design the UI and UX, then build the frontend and backend myself.
- 04
A reply you can plan around
You get an answer within 24 hours, prices in US dollars, and a written quote before work starts. Websites from $600, web applications from $999, WordPress builds from $300.
Services
Custom website development
Websites and online stores built from scratch: UI/UX, frontend, backend and admin dashboard.
Web application development
Customer portals, internal tools and SaaS: sign-in, roles, dashboards and APIs.
WordPress development
Themes, plugins, stores and payments, built as one job.
How your project runs, step by step
- Step 01
Study your competitors
I look at what competitors do well and where they leave gaps, before a single screen is drawn.
- Step 02
Design the UI and UX
I design the screens myself, so what you approve is what gets built.
- Step 03
Build frontend to backend
Pages, accounts, orders, payments and the admin dashboard, built as one job.
- Step 04
Launch and look after it
Speed checked on a phone, then backups, monitoring and changes through website care.
