iOS (Swift) developer needed for 4 months project to build fancy self-service app

Anatoli's work ethic, communication skills and technical competence are superb. … He also suggested better solutions than those we initially came up with. Anatoli is a true software craftsman. Would hire again, 10/10.

Photo editing and posting app

Anatoli was outstanding. He delivered the task successfully and beyond my expectations. I was expecting at least 4 weeks in order to have a fully functional app but Anatoli managed to accomplish his tasks within 2 weeks. I would highly recommend him.
