I craft iOS apps that people love to use.
Freelance iOS developer with over a decade of experience building polished, high-performance mobile applications for startups and established brands alike.
Turning ideas into native iOS experiences.
I'm Nicolas, a freelance iOS developer based in Belgium, working under the name CodeHive. For the past decade I've been designing and developing native iOS applications — from early-stage prototypes to full App Store releases.
I focus on writing clean, maintainable Swift code and building interfaces that feel intuitive and responsive. Whether it's a consumer-facing product, an enterprise tool, or a creative side-project, I bring the same level of craft and attention to detail.
