FAQ's

What is JavaScript?

JavaScript helps make your web pages dynamic and interactive. It is an essential coding language employed in client-side development where it can be used alongside AJAX, jQuery, AngularJS, Bootstrap, BackboneJS, ExpressJS, and other JavaScript frameworks.

What kind of Javascript developer jobs are there?

JavaScript developers are front-end or back-end developers though of course one can have expertise in both. Front-end JS developer jobs require knowledge of the client side of things. Backend JS developer jobs demand expertise about server-side operations (e.g. Node.js, Express.js, Horizon).
Anyone applying for a JavaScript job should have expertise in HTML and CSS (along with preprocessors) and JS frameworks and libraries.

Can startups recruit JavaScript engineers?

Of course, Javascript skills are a good resource to have at your startup provided that you have a need for such services. However, hiring a JS developer yourself for your business can be a pretty daunting task if your or someone else at your company does not have the same technical experience and skills. In such cases, it is better to recruit JavaScript developers through platforms like ours where engineers and developers are already vetted.

What is the cost of hiring a JavaScript developer?

Entry-level JS developers will cost you around $20 per hour, while rates for mid-level/intermediate JS engineers start at $30 per hour. Senior MongoDB developer charges start at $50 per hour.
It is very important to remember that the cost of hiring engineers and developers in any area of expertise depends on where they are located, their experience and skill level as well as the demand for their particular skill set. Who you decide to hire will depend on the kind of work you need done and how close your deadlines are.

What you can build with Gaper JavaScript Developers

Full-stack web applications

React or Next.js frontend paired with a Node.js/Express or Fastify backend. Database integration with PostgreSQL or MongoDB, deployed on Vercel, AWS, or GCP. One engineer can own the entire stack.

Real-time features: chat, notifications, live dashboards

WebSocket servers with Socket.io, server-sent events, and real-time data pipelines using Redis Pub/Sub or Kafka. Gaper engineers have built everything from simple notifications to multi-player collaborative editing tools.

Browser extensions and automation scripts

Chrome and Firefox extensions, web scrapers, Playwright and Puppeteer automation, and web testing frameworks. Useful for internal tooling, data collection, and QA automation.

Serverless APIs and edge functions

Vercel Edge Functions, AWS Lambda, Cloudflare Workers, and Next.js API routes. Low operational overhead, global distribution, and near-zero cold starts for latency-sensitive endpoints.

How Gaper vets JavaScript Developers

JavaScript's flexibility means developers can write code that works but is full of subtle bugs around async timing, scope, and prototype chains. Gaper's screen includes live debugging of async race conditions and prototype mutation bugs because these are the issues that cause production incidents at the worst times.

Skills and areas assessed in our technical screen

  • ES2022+ features: optional chaining, nullish coalescing, structuredClone
  • Async patterns: Promises, async/await, error handling, race conditions
  • TypeScript: generics, type narrowing, utility types, strict mode
  • Node.js: event loop, streams, worker threads, cluster mode
  • Testing: Vitest, Jest, React Testing Library, Playwright
  • Module bundlers: Webpack, Vite, esbuild configuration
  • Browser internals: rendering pipeline, event delegation, memory leaks

Frequently asked questions

Should I hire a JavaScript developer or a TypeScript developer?

Almost all of our JavaScript engineers write TypeScript. TypeScript is the professional standard for production JavaScript projects and all new Gaper engagements default to TypeScript unless you have a specific reason to stay on plain JavaScript.

Can Gaper JavaScript developers work on React Native apps?

Yes. Many of our JavaScript engineers have cross-trained on React Native. They can build mobile apps using their existing JavaScript and React knowledge. Mention mobile requirements when you reach out.

What JavaScript frameworks do your engineers know?

Our engineers cover React, Next.js, Vue, Nuxt, Svelte, Astro, Angular, Express, Fastify, NestJS, and more. We match you based on your existing stack so there is no ramp-up time learning a new framework.

How does Gaper ensure JavaScript code quality?

All Gaper engineers are screened on real-world code review exercises. They are expected to write tests, use TypeScript, follow your linting rules, and submit readable PRs. We can also require engineers to pass your company's take-home assignment before starting.

What is the cost of a JavaScript developer from Gaper?

Senior JavaScript engineers start at $35/hr. A three-month full-stack project at full-time hours is roughly $18,000 to $26,000. US-based JavaScript engineers with the same skill level typically cost $120,000 to $160,000 per year in salary alone.
