Production Health Audit
Your app is live, but something is not right: it is slow, it crashes, or it throws errors. I review it and tell you what I found and what to fix first.
For React and Next.js apps that are already live.
About two weeks, from $750. Read-only access.
What I look at.
Performance problems are not always in the frontend, but the frontend is usually where users feel them first. A slow or failing page can come from a heavy query, a slow API or a server running out of memory. So I start from what users see and follow the problem to where it actually comes from, working with your backend and DevOps team when it leads there.
Performance
Slow pages and heavy loading, and what is causing them.
Stability
Errors and crashes, including the ones that only happen in production.
Security
Common gaps, such as exposed keys or missing permission checks on the server.
Code health
How easy the code will be to maintain and change.
How it works.
Three simple steps, about two weeks.
You share access to the code
Read-only access to the repository and a link to the site. One sentence on what feels wrong is enough to start.
I review the app
I go through the code and the site. If the cause is not clear from the code alone, I suggest where to add logging for requests and memory, so we can see what actually happens on the live platform.
You get the report and a short call
A written report within two weeks, and a 30-minute call to go over it together.
What you get.
- A written report in plain language, explaining each problem and why it matters.
- A list of fixes, ordered by what matters most.
- A 30-minute call to walk through the findings and answer questions.
Agreed up front.
If you'd like me to make the fixes too, the audit fee comes off that work.
To start, I only need read-only access to the code. No write access and no production passwords.
Before you ask.
What if you find nothing?
Then the report says so. That is a useful result too: it means the problem is probably somewhere else, such as the server or the data.
Can you fix what you find?
Usually yes, and the audit fee comes off that work. The report is also written so any other developer can use it.
Do you sign an NDA?
Yes. Send yours and I will sign it before you share the code. I don't publish client names without permission.
Tell me what's broken
Tell me what is happening with your app, and I will tell you honestly whether an audit makes sense.
Prefer to start directly?
