Abandoned App Projects
Developer disappeared, contractor handoff failed, or the repo no longer has anyone who understands it.
Application rescue for mobile and AI-assisted projects
Developer disappeared? AI-generated project becoming unstable?
HerbDev helps rescue, stabilize, and maintain mobile and AI-assisted software projects that need senior technical ownership across code, cloud, CI/CD, deployment, and release.
Rescue
Unfinished app projects, inherited codebases, and broken releases.
Stabilize
iOS build failures, Android parity gaps, Firebase problems, and CI/CD breakage.
Maintain
Senior ownership after contractors, AI tools, or internal teams stall.
Senior technical ownership
For projects that are broken, abandoned, unstable, or stuck before release.
I speak geek so you don't have to.
Pain HerbDev is built to handle
When a mobile application stalls, the problem is rarely one file.
Rescue work usually spans code quality, build settings, Firebase, App Store submission rules, Google Play requirements, CI/CD, cloud configuration, and unclear ownership. HerbDev steps in to diagnose the whole situation and move the project back toward release.
AI-Generated Code Repair
AI-assisted builds that compile sometimes, fail mysteriously, or keep drifting away from production readiness.
Release Blockers
App Store submission issues, Google Play problems, iOS build failures, Android app repair, and parity gaps.
Deployment Systems
Firebase deployment problems, broken CI/CD pipelines, cloud misconfiguration, and fragile release workflows.
Case-study style rescue work
A practical path from inherited mess to managed system.
HerbDev does not start with agency theater. The first job is to understand what is broken, what still works, what must ship, and what needs ownership.
1. Stabilize the build: recover local builds, dependency versions, platform settings, and signing assumptions.
2. Map the release blockers: identify App Store, Google Play, Firebase, CI/CD, and OS compatibility issues.
3. Repair what matters: fix architecture, data flow, crash points, platform parity, and unstable AI-generated code.
4. Transfer ownership: create a maintainable path forward with clear release and maintenance practices.
