I’m looking for an experienced app developer to help turn my existing website, Dot & Dragon, into a polished mobile app.
Dot & Dragon is an affiliate marketplace for mahjong products. The website currently features products from multiple brands and allows customers to browse by category, discover new products, and click through to the original retailer/manufacturer to purchase. We do not sell or fulfill products directly — the app would primarily be a discovery, browsing, wishlist, and click-through shopping experience.
The website is already built on WordPress, so I am looking for someone who can either:
Build a mobile app that connects to the existing WordPress site/product database, or
Recommend the best app solution for my current setup, including whether a native app, hybrid app, or app-wrapper approach makes the most sense.
Main goals for the app:
Create a clean, easy-to-use mobile shopping/discovery experience
Pull in existing products and categories from the WordPress website
Allow users to browse by category, brand, and theme
Support wishlist functionality or help determine the best way to include it
Preserve affiliate outbound links to partner websites
Make the app feel polished and professional, not just like a website inside an app
Help prepare the app for submission to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store
Current website features include:
Product categories such as Tiles, Mats, Racks, Accessories, Gather & Play, Clothing, and Resources
Multiple partner brands
Affiliate links that send shoppers to the original retailer
Wishlist functionality
Product filtering/searching
Blog/editorial content planned or in progress
Ideal candidate:
Has experience building apps from WordPress or WooCommerce-style websites
Understands affiliate websites and outbound link tracking
Can advise on the best technical path instead of simply taking orders
Has experience submitting apps to Apple and Google
Can create a user-friendly, visually polished mobile experience
Communicates clearly and can explain technical options in plain English
Please include in your proposal:
Examples of apps you’ve built from existing websites
Whether you recommend native, hybrid, or app-wrapper development for this project
Your estimated timeline
Your estimated cost or project phases
Any questions you would need answered before starting
Whether you can assist with App Store and Google Play submission
Budget:
Open to discussing based on the recommended approach. I’m especially interested in someone who can help me make the smartest first version of the app without overbuilding too soon.
Project Type:
One-time project with the possibility of ongoing support as the marketplace grows.
