The Strategic Advantage
An API is the contract between your data and your users. If the API is poorly designed, slow, or constantly changing, your frontend and mobile teams will spend all their time fixing bugs instead of building features.
I build APIs that developers actually want to use. I follow strict RESTful conventions, implement sensible versioning strategies, and ensure every endpoint is secured with proper authentication and rate limiting.
From simple CRUD endpoints to complex data aggregation services, I use Django REST Framework and FastAPI to deliver high-performance interfaces.
Comprehensive Solutions
Resource-oriented APIs built with Django REST Framework.
FastAPI endpoints for high-throughput or machine learning workloads.
Webhooks and API integrations with services like Stripe, Twilio, and SendGrid.

Technical Comparison
| Criteria | REST API | GraphQL |
|---|---|---|
| Data Fetching | Multiple endpoints | Single endpoint |
| Over-fetching | Common | Eliminated |
| Learning Curve | Low (Standard) | Steeper |
| Caching | Easy (HTTP native) | Complex |
How I Work
Real feedback from real projects.
"Nimesh built the GymTaar Flutter app from scratch — gym management, member tracking, trainer scheduling, the works. We had it on the App Store in about 10 weeks. Clean code, zero hand-holding required, and he flagged a database design issue in week two that would've caused us real pain later. Would hire again without hesitation."

Founder, GymTaar (Nepal)
"We needed the BabalCloud platform built fast and built right. Nimesh delivered a Next.js frontend with a Django backend that's been running in production for over a year with no major issues. What stood out was the communication — weekly updates, no surprises, and he pushed back on a couple of feature requests that would've added weeks of scope for no real user benefit."

"Our Insuretech Nepal website needed to handle a lot of dynamic content and load fast on mobile. Nimesh sorted out the architecture properly from the start — server-side rendering, proper SEO setup, and it scored well on Core Web Vitals on launch day. He works like someone who's done this before, not like someone learning on your project."

Common Inquiries
I primarily build REST APIs as they are simpler, easier to cache, and suitable for 90% of use cases. However, if your frontend has highly complex and varied data requirements, I can implement GraphQL.
I use tools like drf-yasg or FastAPI's built-in tools to auto-generate interactive Swagger/OpenAPI documentation, making it easy for frontend developers to test endpoints.
Yes, I frequently integrate third-party APIs (payment gateways, SMS providers, weather data, etc.) and build resilient webhook handlers to process external events.
I implement JWT or token-based authentication, rate limiting (throttling) to prevent abuse, and strict input validation to prevent injection attacks.
My rate ranges from $25 to $45/hr. I also offer fixed-price quotes for well-defined API specs.
Transparent pricing — no surprises. All prices in USD.
