When to call me
You inherited code with no documentation
No README, no comments, no idea how it works. You need someone to make sense of it.
The previous developer is unavailable
They moved on, went silent, or the agency closed. You have code but no support.
You can't deploy or run it locally
The code exists but you can't get it working. Missing dependencies, broken builds, mystery errors.
You need to hand it off to a new team
Before bringing on new developers, you need the code cleaned up and documented.
You get back a working, documented codebase
- Get the code running locally
- Document the setup process
- Fix critical blockers
- Explain the architecture in plain English
- Create a handoff guide for future developers
Developer vanished mid-project
The situation: Developer stopped responding. App was half-finished. No access to code or hosting. Three weeks from planned launch with investors waiting.
The outcome: Recovered access to everything — code, databases, hosting. Documented what existed and what was missing. Launched 5 weeks later with a new developer.

Common questions
What if the code is really messy?
That's usually the case. I've seen it all - spaghetti code, zero tests, hardcoded secrets. I don't judge, I just fix.
Do you need the original developer?
No. I work from the code itself. If there's any documentation or context, great - but I can work without it.
What languages can you rescue?
React, Node.js, Python, Go, Flutter, PHP, Ruby - most modern stacks. If you're unsure, just ask.
How long does it typically take?
Simple rescues: 2-3 days. Complex codebases: up to a week. I'll give you an estimate after looking at it.
