Andreas Skaarberg
Fredrikstad, Norway
I'm in my final year of computer science and work as a social educator. It's an unusual combination, but it gives me something few developers have: I understand both the technology and the people who actually use it. I think just as much about the wording on a button as I do about the architecture behind it.
On the side I build and run several products myself – SaaS, a mobile app and client projects. That's the experience I offer you: not an agency with billing targets, but one developer who takes ownership of the result and communicates clearly about it.
Own products
I know what it's like to own something from idea to production
I haven't just read about SaaS, app publishing or EU hosting – I've done it. Myself. With my own money and my own name on the invoice.
StackPatrol
Own productMy own product. A free scanner that maps third-party vendors on a website, classifies them by region and suggests European alternatives. Built for teams that want to understand what their site actually loads.

What you can expect
The value is not just code quality. It is clarity, ownership and practical judgement through the whole project.
Real privacy
EU hosting where possible, no tracking scripts you don't need, transparency about what the site actually loads.
Accessibility
As a social educator I know why WCAG isn't just a checkbox. Screen readers, contrast and keyboard navigation are part of the quality requirement.
Ownership
You shouldn't be locked in to me. Code, content and domains are yours from day one – whether we build in Next.js or Squarespace.
Clear pricing
Fixed prices on packages, transparent hourly rate otherwise. No surprises in the final invoice, and no hidden dependencies.

Got a project in mind?
I usually respond within a day. First conversation is no obligation, and I'll let you know if it's not a good fit.
