How much does it cost to hire a React developer?

There are a lot of factors to consider when you’re looking at a budget for your next React developer. They include (but aren’t limited to):

  • Location of the developer
  • Years of experience
  • Complexity of the project
  • How long you’re hiring for

Because of this, knowing exactly how much it costs to hire a React developer is a little bit art, a little bit science. Based on the data we’ve collected, that can range anywhere from $12,000 per month to $25,000 per month for a full-time developer to join your team.

What kind of React developer should I hire?

There are two arms to the React beast: React Native and ReactJS. The easiest way to describe the difference is that one (React Native) is the framework, while the other (ReactJS) is the library. React Native uses ReactJS to build apps and websites.

Hire a ReactJS developer

If you have an app or product that will rely on super speedy updates, ReactJS will be the perfect fit. React caches data structures and updates the screen your user sees as close to real-time as possible. The code is written like the whole page rerenders every time, but the secret sauce is the use of components, which become the pieces that are updated instead of the whole. No wonder it’s used in so many mobile applications, where speed and memory are the two most prized possessions. Its use of server-side rendering is also a boon to SEO, which is something every early-stage company can use to their advantage.

Hire a React Native developer

Maybe you want your blazing-fast experience to be platform-agnostic? React Native is here to help. The framework can tell exactly which platform it’s being run on, and serve up only the code meant to run on that platform, giving you greater control over how your end user sees and interacts with your product. This is great for addressing the many finicky nuances between Android and iOS devices. The numerous ready-to-use UI libraries that exist for React Native also make it a solid choice if you require a smooth and seamless user interface.

Talk to Gun.io

React is a JavaScript library that has been around since 2011, and exists as an open-source, component-based front-end library. It’s designed to build user interfaces for both desktop and mobile that are fast and intuitive, and was originally created by the team at Facebook. If your project involves real-time interactions like a messaging app, e-commerce site, or data aggregation, you might want to hire a React developer onto your team.
