An independent product lab
We've shipped 17 products in React Native and Next.js, with 45 engineering deep-dives explaining how. Every product on this site is one of ours — no clients, no agency work, no white-label builds.

A studio that ships its own products
Codmaker is an independent product lab. We build mobile and web apps in React Native and Next.js — for ourselves, not for clients. The roadmap is whatever we think is worth building, and every decision lives downstream of that.
The lab grew out of a decade of shipping software for other people. The conclusion was simple: we get more done, learn faster, and care more about the work when we own the product end-to-end. That's the only thesis the studio runs on.
Four things we actually optimize for
Ship our own ventures
Every product on this site is one of ours. No client work, no white-label builds. The roadmap is whatever we think is worth building.
Code-optional, not no-code
Visual tools where they fit, code where they don't. We pick the boundary deliberately for each product, not by ideology.
Real users beat clean plans
We ship early, learn from store reviews and analytics, and rewrite the parts that didn't work. The first version is never the final one.
Own the data path
Self-hosted where it matters, hosted where it doesn't. We design products so user data flows through infrastructure we control.
A decade of shipping — what got us here
The technical decisions and shifts that led to Codmaker as it runs today.
Next.js & React Native Developer
Building innovative mobile applications with React Native and modern web applications with Next.js. Created Al-Adkar and eTrackly, focusing on applications that solve real problems and provide value to users.
Switching to Next.js
Transitioned from Gatsby to Next.js for better performance, SEO capabilities, and server-side rendering. Continued building React applications with modern tooling and best practices.
React.js with Gatsby & Styled-System
Worked with React.js using Gatsby for static site generation and styled-system for component-based styling. Explored different theming approaches including Grommet UI and styled-components.
React.js & Styled-Components
Started working with React.js, exploring different theming approaches including Grommet UI and styled-components. Built modern, component-based user interfaces.
Drupal Frontend Developer
Worked with Drupal frontend development using JavaScript, jQuery, SCSS, and Twig templating. Created custom themes and enhanced user experiences.
Mobile App Development with Ionic & Cordova
Switched to mobile app development using Ionic and Cordova frameworks. Built cross-platform mobile applications for iOS and Android.
Beginning the Journey - Foundations of Engineering
Started the software engineering journey by building and shipping static websites, WordPress solutions, and desktop applications. This phase laid the groundwork for understanding the full product lifecycle.
