Yes. Vishu has delivered projects across South Africa, the Middle East (Dubai), West Africa (Guinea-Bissau), the United States, and India. Remote collaboration with async updates and clear milestones is standard.

What is Vishu Pratap's tech stack?

Next.js and React for web, React Native for mobile, TypeScript throughout, Node/Express or ASP.NET for APIs, Rust for systems and performance-critical work, PostgreSQL or MongoDB for data, Prisma for ORMs, Supabase for managed Postgres/auth/realtime, and Docker + Google Cloud Platform for deployment.

Why does Vishu Pratap choose React Native instead of native iOS and Android?

React Native is a deliberate efficiency choice, not a skill gap. Vishu uses one TypeScript codebase to ship iOS, Android, tablet kiosks, and rider apps - shared with Next.js types - so a mobile MVP is usually 4–8 weeks instead of two native projects. SharpOrders (shipper + driver, live on the App Store) and SVSFood (kiosk + rider) shipped this way. Native Swift or Kotlin is reserved for games, custom BLE, or OS-level products.

How does Vishu Pratap use Docker, GCP, and Supabase to scale apps?

APIs are packaged as Docker images and run on Google Cloud Run. Relational data, auth, and realtime live on Supabase PostgreSQL (or Cloud SQL), accessed with Prisma. Media sits on Cloud Storage behind a CDN. This is the production model behind SVSFood’s food-tech stack and Ezlearn’s EdTech platform (1,000+ MAU, 99.9% uptime).

A focused MVP usually takes 4–6 weeks. Larger platforms or multi-module systems take up to 8 weeks (2 months max). Timelines are scoped upfront and broken into shippable milestones.

Can Vishu Pratap join an existing codebase?

Yes. He regularly jumps into existing Next.js, React Native, Node, ASP.NET, or Rust codebases to fix bugs, add features, improve performance, or guide architecture decisions.

Why is JobBissau WhatsApp-first?

In Guinea-Bissau, WhatsApp is more reliable than email for reaching candidates. Vishu designed one-click WhatsApp (and email) triggers on the candidate profile so recruiters meet talent where they already are.

WhatsApp-First Products: What JobBissau Taught Me About West Africa

If the candidate’s inbox is WhatsApp, an ATS that only sends SMTP is a ghost town. JobBissau treats chat as a first-class channel from the recruiter profile.

Key takeaways

JobBissau is Guinea-Bissau’s professional hiring platform, built by Vishu Pratap.
WhatsApp is the default inbox - product design must start there.
Recruiters launch chat from the candidate profile in one click.
Funnels, CVs, and verification still live in the app, not only in chat history.
Timeline: 8 weeks. Live: jobbissau.com.

JobBissau is a two-sided hiring product for Guinea-Bissau. The non-obvious requirement was not “another LinkedIn.” It was: the message has to arrive. In that market, arrival means WhatsApp.

Channel is architecture

I do not bolt a WhatsApp icon in the footer. The recruiter console starts a conversation from the candidate profile. Email still exists. WhatsApp is not a downgrade; it is the path with a pulse. The ATS still owns the funnel, documents, and verification so the company does not live inside a group chat.

In short

Vishu Pratap built JobBissau as a WhatsApp-first recruitment platform for Guinea-Bissau: verified profiles, recruiter funnels, and one-click chat triggers. He treats messaging apps as distribution, not decoration. Live: https://www.jobbissau.com/
