Hiring guide

What to look for in a React freelancer

A strong React developer should be comfortable with modern hooks, state management, and component architecture, not just building screens. Look for:

  • Solid JavaScript and TypeScript fundamentals, not just React syntax.
  • Experience with your ecosystem: Next.js, Redux or Zustand, React Query, testing with Jest or Vitest.
  • An eye for performance: memoization, code splitting, and avoiding needless re-renders.
  • Clean, reusable components and a sense for accessible, responsive UI.
  • A portfolio of real, shipped apps, not just tutorials.

Ask candidates to walk you through a project they shipped and a performance problem they solved. It tells you more than any checklist.
