About Shawn
I'm Shawn, an independent iOS and web developer based in Sydney, Australia. I work with founders and small teams who need native iOS apps, launch websites, and AI-assisted prototypes built properly, with direct communication and a clear scope from the start.
My background is in software development with a strong focus on Apple platforms. I build primarily with Swift and SwiftUI for iOS, and with modern HTML, CSS, and lightweight server-side tools for the web. Where AI tools genuinely help speed up delivery without lowering quality, I use them carefully and practically.
Two apps are currently live on the App Store — VitalFit and ReciteMaster. Both came from real briefs, were scoped to ship, and are available to review. I care about building things that are useful, clear, and ready to launch.
When I'm not building for clients, I write about iOS development, product thinking, and practical ways to make software better. I also wrote Anyone Can Build a Website, a beginner-friendly guide to HTML, CSS, JavaScript, GitHub, and Vercel, available on Amazon worldwide.
Most client work sits at the intersection of product thinking and hands-on iOS delivery. If you need a direct builder for a native app, start with the iOS app development page and recent app case studies. The focus is always launch-ready, maintainable software rather than unnecessary complexity.
Currently accepting new projects.
If you're building something and want a developer who communicates clearly and ships carefully, let's talk.
