What I build
Harshad Satra is a freelance React and Next.js developer in Mumbai, India. His recent Next.js work includes Veeraa (2026), a non-profit platform with Razorpay donations; Bridge Over Water (2026), a Denmark-based music publishing company connecting Scandinavian songwriters with Asian markets; and Deshimoo (2025), a farm-to-table dairy brand. Earlier React projects include OPA, an influencer marketing platform connecting more than 300,000 creators with brands, and Lokall, a location platform built with Next.js and Google Maps.
Next.js lets him combine static pages, server rendering and API routes in one codebase, deployed on Vercel. You get a marketing site that loads instantly and ranks well, plus the room to grow into a full web application with logins, payments and dashboards without starting again.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Why build a marketing website in Next.js instead of WordPress?
Next.js sites are faster and more secure by default because most pages are pre-rendered and there is no public admin to attack. It's a good fit when the site will grow into an app, or when content comes from a headless CMS. WordPress is still a great choice for content-heavy sites with large editorial teams.
Can you help with an existing React or Next.js codebase?
Yes. I can review architecture and performance, upgrade to the App Router, fix Core Web Vitals issues, or take over feature development.
Do you also handle design?
I work best from a Figma design. If you don't have one, I can work with a designer I trust or build from a reference site and your brand guidelines.
Where will my Next.js site be hosted?
Usually on Vercel, which is built by the Next.js team, but I also deploy to AWS when a project needs to stay within your existing cloud account.
