I've developed multiple types of iOS applications. Most recently, I've worked with chat apps, social networking apps, apps which require instant responses from servers, and apps that require payment processing. I am well versed in both Objective-C and Swift and compliment my iOS skills with full knowledge of backend services (both building and consuming).

I've developed with Javascript on both the front end and backend. Primarily Javascript has been a great toll to use on the front end of websites to introduce more dynamic behavior to websites. I've also incorporated it into the backend by using Node.js, along with it's additional libraries.

I really have hesitated writing reviews for Dexter because he may never have time for all the other 'chores' that need to be accomplished FOR ME if he's serving all you people out there. ;) He has gone over and above. As well, if he isn't completely confident he can tackle something he states this straight up without wasting a bunch of time unlike another coder I've had the unpleasant experience of on this site. Enjoyable to work with in xcode, Objective C, working through the iTunes uploads and was introduced to other relevant software to make my life easier. Thank you Dexter!
