Marc Smyk
Last position:
Fullstack Developer at PLANT-MY-TREE
PLANT-MY-TREE®-per-order
The application enables Shopify merchants to automatically place tree-planting orders for every incoming order. By integrating ecological contributions directly into the purchase process, the manual effort for tracking and billing reforestation initiatives is eliminated. The system increases transparency for end customers through real-time visualizations of the ecological impact directly in the storefront. The architecture is based on a modular monolith with Spring Boot in the backend and an integrated React app inside the Shopify admin area. The solution uses webhooks to capture order data in an event-driven way and integrates the weclapp ERP system for automated monthly invoicing. An app proxy mechanism provides dynamic statistics such as CO2 compensation and planted trees without any performance loss for the merchant shop.
Tasks:
- Design of the modular software architecture based on Spring Modulith to ensure high maintainability
- Development of the event-driven business logic for evaluating Shopify orders via webhooks
- Implementation of automated invoicing by connecting the weclapp REST API
- Building the frontend using React Router and Shopify App Bridge for native integration
- Design of the database model and implementation of the persistence layer with JPA/Hibernate and Prisma
- Integration of internationalization processes for global use in the frontend and email communication
- Automation of deployment processes using Docker and GitLab CI/CD
Project skills: Java 25, Spring Boot, Spring Security, Spring Modulith, Hibernate, JPA, REST API, PostgreSQL, Maven, Liquibase, React, TypeScript, React Router, Vite, Node.js, Prisma, Zod, Docker, Docker Compose, GitLab CI/CD, Shopify CLI, Shopify App Bridge, Polaris, weclapp, i18next, Lombok, Vitest

About the technology
Real-time connections
WebSockets keep a browser or app connection open so data can move both ways without repeated requests. That makes them a fit for live chat, trading screens, multiplayer features, support tools, and any product that needs immediate updates.
Where they fit
- Live dashboards and monitoring views
- Chat, presence, and collaboration features
- Notifications, alerts, and event feeds
- Gaming, auctions, and live scoring
- Device or machine status updates
Stack around it
Strong specialists usually work with JavaScript or TypeScript on the client and a server stack such as Node.js, Java, .NET, or Go. They know how to handle message formats, reconnection logic, authentication, backpressure, and scaling through load balancers and brokers.
When to bring in help
Companies often seek freelance expertise when a product needs a stable real-time layer, but the internal team has little experience with long-lived connections. It also helps when a project needs to move from polling to push, or when message handling must be cleaned up for production use.
What good work looks like
- Clear protocol handling and error recovery
- Safe authentication and session control
- Efficient message design and routing
- Practical testing under load and disconnects
- Simple code that is easy to maintain
Germany delivery
In Germany, many teams want specialists who can work well with product, backend, and frontend people in English, and sometimes German, depending on the setup. Remote collaboration is common for this kind of work, but on-site support can help during architecture workshops, launch phases, or when a live system needs close attention.
Frequently asked questions
The facts hiring teams ask for most often when it comes to WebSockets.
WebSockets are used when an app must send and receive data in real time without refreshing the page. That includes chat, live notifications, dashboards, collaboration tools, and other features where quick updates matter more than simple page loads.
WebSockets are different from REST because they keep a connection open and allow two-way messaging. Compared with polling, they reduce repeated requests and latency, which helps when updates are frequent or need to feel instant.
WebSockets give you the protocol, while Socket.IO adds a higher-level layer with conveniences like fallbacks and events. Socket.IO can be useful when you want faster implementation and can accept its added abstraction, but raw WebSockets are often the better fit when you need tighter control over behavior and performance.
A strong WebSockets specialist usually understands frontend event handling, backend message design, authentication, and scaling patterns. Experience with Redis, message brokers, reverse proxies, and load balancing is often important when the system must handle many live connections cleanly.
WebSockets work looks simple at first, but production use adds details like reconnects, timeouts, ordering, and duplicate messages. Small prototypes may need only focused help, but production systems usually benefit from someone who has already handled real-time traffic, failure cases, and deployment concerns.
Yes. WebSockets work is often done well remotely because most tasks are about protocol behavior, application logic, and testing rather than physical access. In Germany, remote collaboration is common, but on-site sessions can still help when teams need architecture decisions or live troubleshooting.
Look for clear answers about connection lifecycle, error handling, security, and scaling, not just a working demo. A good WebSockets expert can explain trade-offs, show how messages are structured, and describe how the system behaves when clients drop, reconnect, or send unexpected data.
No. WebSockets are common in chat, but they are also used for live analytics, collaborative editing, gaming, alerts, and device status updates. Any product that needs quick two-way updates can be a fit if the team wants less delay and fewer repeated requests.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used WebSockets in their recent projects is 89 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 711 € based on an 8-hour working day.
Of the freelancers in Germany who have used WebSockets in their recent projects, 89% hold at least a Bachelor's degree, 48% hold at least a Master's degree, and 8% hold a doctorate.
On average, freelancers in Germany who have used WebSockets in their recent projects have 17 years of professional experience, with a single engagement typically lasting around 2.2 years.
The most common languages among freelancers in Germany who have used WebSockets in their recent projects are English (98%), German (95%), and French (14%).
