React Three Fiber Developer Rate
R3F developer rates track Three.js rates closely, with a small premium for the combined React and Three.js skill set on senior work.
R3F developer rates track a similar baseline to Three.js work, with a small premium for senior developers since combining React and Three.js skill is rare. Mid-tier agencies and premium US/UK studios sit progressively higher. I quote fixed-price for client work, scaled to project scope, rather than billing hourly. The R3F ecosystem (drei, leva, react-three-rapier) makes development faster than vanilla Three.js for component-heavy projects.
Inclusions and exclusions
Included: design + development + assets + first-year hosting + minor revisions + post-launch support for 30 days. Not included: stock photography (rare, but if needed I source separately), custom 3D modeling beyond what's typical for the scope, content writing (I refine your draft, but you provide the source content), and ongoing monthly maintenance after the first year.
What you actually get
The deliverable for React Three Fiber Developer Rate includes: a working production site with the agreed scope, full source code handed over, asset pipeline documented, og images, schema.org markup, sitemap entry and basic SEO setup. The quote is fixed — I quote once, deliver, invoice on delivery. No hidden costs.
What drives the quote
Scope drives the quote for r3f developer rate: a hero-section upgrade on an existing site sits at one end, a full multi-scene build with custom shaders, configurator logic or AR support at the other. The written offer breaks the scope down so you see exactly what you are paying for — with first-year hosting and minor revisions included.
How I differ from US studios
A US or UK design studio with comparable skill ships similar quality at a multiple of my quote for the same scope. The difference isn't quality — it's cost-of-living arbitrage. You also get direct access to the developer building your site, no agency layer slowing decisions.
