Hey, I'm currently a full-time react dev from germany. I'm technically junior, but currently I'm the only React dev in my team and we're doing alright, hence the "technically". Being the only react dev I'm used to pressure and short cycles. I'm also up to date on hooks, Redux, Typescript, Firebase and a bunch more.
I still have to work full-time because obviously having to stay at home isn't really a hindrance to work for us devs.
Thus I can commit a an hour, maybe 2 a day + more time on weekends, with the little catch that I'll reduce that or pull out when it's getting to much, as I said, work is already a handful.
This sounds like a great cause to donate my time and skills to, so please let me know how I can get involved.

I just submitted my info through Google Forms. I've worked full-time in front-end React for 2 1/2 years. Been coding for a decade. Going to bed for the night, but I work full-time remotely already and will help however I can. linkedin.com/in/derekthedev/

Are you only looking for React devs? I can/have developed React apps, but I'm more a backend dev.

For now yes, everything runs serverless apart from the DB. We are going to iron out the major bugs now and do a planning session. Depending on how things are going however we might switch that setup though. What is your preferred tech stack together with React?

I can't stress enough that I say I can develop React apps loosely; in as much as I can clobber something together that is functional, but doesn't follow best practices etc :-)

My backend languages are Node or Go. Other than that, I'm pretty open to whatever.
