# Canva app development

I built PageProof for Canva, which lets teams send a Canva design for review without leaving the editor. If your users design in Canva, I can bring your product to them there.

## Shipped

• PageProof for Canva

  Seamless review workflows within Canva

## What I handle

• App UI in React and TypeScript using Canva's App UI Kit
• Exporting designs and reading design content through the Apps SDK
• Signing users in to your own service
• A backend for the app, if it needs one
• Canva's app review and publishing

## How it works

1. A call to understand the workflow you want inside the host app.
2. A written scope with a fixed quote and timeline.
3. Early builds you can try, with regular check-ins.
4. Store submission, then handover of the code and documentation.

## Questions

Does a Canva App need a backend?

Not always. An app that only works with the design can run entirely in Canva. If it talks to your product, it needs an API to call, and I can build that too.

Can you work on an app that's already published?

Yes. I can pick up an existing app, address review feedback, or add features.
