Tools we use: React, Next.js, Node.js, Laravel, Python.
Skills
What a good React Native developer brings
A good developer uses a shared codebase for iOS and Android while respecting how each platform handles navigation, gestures, permissions and the keyboard. Ask how they will handle those differences in your app.
- Native codeThey know when a device API or vendor SDK needs Swift or Kotlin because the JavaScript layer does not cover it.
- Long lists and animationThey use FlatList or FlashList, Reanimated and profiling tools to identify slow renders and keep screens responsive.
- Weak connectionsThey cache data, queue changes and show clear states, then sync the changes when the network returns.
- ReleasesThey handle signing, build profiles, store listings and privacy details, as well as permitted over-the-air JavaScript updates.
- TestingThey use Jest and React Native Testing Library, with end-to-end tests in Detox or Maestro on devices and emulators.
Use cases
What you can hire React Native developers for
React Native suits an app that needs both mobile platforms and standard features such as forms, maps, camera access or payments. It also fits a companion app for an existing React web product, where the mobile and web teams can share business logic, types or API clients.
You might also use it for the first version of a new product. A shared codebase helps you reach both platforms and put the idea in front of real users sooner.
Check the fit before committing. An app centred on heavy graphics, advanced camera or audio processing, or brand-new platform features may be better suited to native Swift and Kotlin development.
How hiring works
How hiring works with us
We provide developers who already work on our client projects. You direct the work; hiring through a studio generally moves recruitment, payroll, equipment and cover for absence to the studio.
- 01
Join your workflow
Developers work in your repository, tickets and stand-ups, with the hours for shared availability agreed before work starts.
- 02
Plan onboarding
Set up the environment, walk through the product and codebase, and choose a small real task that touches the main parts of the system.
- 03
Document the setup
Share the architecture, coding standards, branching and release process, plus instructions for running the project locally. Record any gaps found.
- 04
Grant access
Start with individual accounts and only the permissions needed in staging. Add production access once the review process is in place.
- 05
Adjust capacity
Scale the plan up or down, or pause it, as your needs change. Agree changes against the work you want prioritised.
Time zones
Working hours between Malaysia and India
India time is 2h30m behind Malaysia. The working week is Monday–Friday in most states, and Sunday–Thursday in Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu. Agree a fixed overlap window for stand-ups and quick questions, and keep it clear of other meetings on both sides.
We work remotely through video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards; you can also use Slack or email and speak directly with the developers. Written end-of-day updates cover progress, blockers and next steps. Handover notes record unfinished work, open questions and decisions when the teams are rarely online together.
Rules
What a React Native project in Malaysia has to handle
If your app transfers personal data outside the country, the data protection notice needs to inform people of that transfer. We set up the written notice and a record of each receiver, destination country, data type and purpose.
A contract with a third-party processor must also govern personal data processing, including security. We set up the processing clauses for the engagement alongside the access arrangements for the work.
Vetting
How to judge a React Native developer before you commit
- Ask where Expo would reach its limits for your app. Look for specific native modules and build settings, not a general preference for a tool.
- Use a small paid taskan API list, detail screen, offline cache and form running on an iOS simulator and an Android emulator.
- Ask about a store rejection they handled. The answer should identify the reason and the changes they made to address it.
- Discuss a feature that behaves differently across platforms. Look for appropriate platform-specific code and a plan to test it on both.
Checklist
What to have ready before developers start
A few decisions upfront give a developer useful work to begin with.
- A ranked backlog or a first set of well-described tasks, so work starts on your priorities.
- The skills and seniority needed, including any framework or legacy-system experience.
- Your working hours, the overlap you need and the person who will answer questions.
- A definition of done covering review rules, expected tests, deployment and approval.
Cost & time
What affects the cost of hiring React Native developers
The scope and working arrangement determine what goes into the plan.
Commitment
Full-time, part-time and set-hours arrangements involve different capacity, as does the notice needed to change the plan.
Codebase condition
A legacy system, niche framework or missing documentation can narrow the skills needed and slow onboarding.
Management
The arrangement changes if a lead plans work and reviews code, or if you manage the developer directly.
Design work
New pages, interface updates and design system work add to the scope when your app needs them.

Questions
Asked by businesses in Malaysia
Page updated 5 November 2026
How much does it cost to hire dedicated React Native developers?
There is no fixed price. Seniority and the amount of ongoing work are major drivers: experienced developers cost more and need less supervision, while well-defined tasks can suit a junior developer with close review. Full-time capacity suits a full backlog; part-time or hour-based work suits maintenance or bursts of work.
How can I hire a dedicated remote developer?
Start with the work you need done and agree how the developer will join your existing process. We fit into your repositories, tools and review process. Once work starts, use merged pull requests, demos and shipped features to assess progress, and review code early to catch misunderstandings.
What is included when I hire through you?
The work includes code reviews, tests and documentation to keep the code maintainable. A lead also reviews code and keeps work on track. Capacity is flexible, so you can scale the plan as your needs change while keeping attention on the work your product needs.
How do I choose a framework for a new app?
Start with the app’s features and the skills your team already has. React Native documentation recommends a framework such as Expo for new apps; it handles routing, native builds and many device APIs. Flutter is another cross-platform option, while React Native is often chosen by teams that know JavaScript and React.
Will I own the code?
Yes. We provide an NDA and hand code ownership to you. Keep repositories, cloud accounts and third-party services under your organisation, and confirm the assignment of intellectual property in the contract. That gives your team control of the accounts and code used for the product.
Can you support the app after launch?
Yes. You can scale the plan up or down, or pause it as your needs change. Allow for ongoing upgrades: React Native and its native libraries change regularly, and the app needs maintenance to keep building and remain accepted by the stores.
