WebGL Developer in the Balkans — Senior Solo, Remote

Belgrade-region WebGL/Three.js specialist working remote with EU and US clients, fixed price, no agency layer.

A WebGL developer based in the Balkans (Serbia specifically) offering senior-level 3D web work at 30-50% of US/UK agency pricing. The cost difference is purely arbitrage on cost-of-living — quality, methodology, and code quality match what a top US studio delivers. My typical client is a US/EU SaaS startup, agency, or premium brand that values direct communication with the developer building their site. Engagement model: fixed price, written scope, source on your GitHub from day one. Time-zone overlap is excellent for EU clients (full business day) and workable for US East (your morning, my afternoon).

Technical foundation

Stack: Three.js v0.170 with GSAP for animation timeline, Lenis for smooth scroll, Vite for build, GLSL for custom shaders when needed. Hosting on a Hetzner / DigitalOcean equivalent — fast first byte, HTTP/2, Brotli compression, CDN for static assets. Lighthouse mobile 85+ guaranteed.

Where it fits

This service is the right call when the brand needs a visual moment that ranks beyond the average competitor — agencies pitching new business, premium e-commerce, portfolios that need to look ahead-of-curve. If you need a basic content site or blog, a static-site generator without 3D is more economical and ranks just as well for simple keyword targets.

Timeline

Discovery week 1, design week 1-2, development weeks 2-5, integration and QA week 5-6. Total: 4-6 weeks for the standard scope. Larger scope (configurator, multi-scene scrollytelling) extends to 8-12 weeks. I send weekly progress in writing — you always know where the project stands.

Concrete deliverable

What you receive at handover: a working WebGL Developer in the Balkans — Senior Solo, Remote on production hosting, all source files committed to your GitHub repo, og-images for social sharing, basic schema.org markup, sitemap entry, and a 5-min walkthrough video. The site is yours from day one — I never hold code hostage.

Frequently asked questions

Do you write technical documentation in English?
Yes. All deliverables — code comments, README, technical handoff doc, walkthrough video — are in clean professional English. The site itself can be in any language; content is your responsibility, code and docs are mine and they're English by default.
How does payment work for non-EU clients?
USD wire transfer or USDC stablecoin. Formal invoices from a registered Serbian sole-proprietor, accepted under most reseller-of-record platforms (Deel, Remote, Ontop). For US clients I also support W-8BEN-E if the relationship requires it.
How long does this take?
Standard scope: 4-6 weeks from contract signature to live site. Larger scope (configurator, multi-scene scrollytelling) takes 8-12 weeks. Rush projects (2-3 weeks) are accepted with a 30-40% rush surcharge.
What does it cost?
Hero-section 3D upgrade: \$1,500-\$2,500. Full multi-scene 3D site: \$3,500-\$8,000. Configurator with custom shaders: \$5,000-\$12,000. All fixed-price, source code included. EUR equivalents on request.
What if my visitors are on weak phones?
The site detects device tier before the first scene loads and serves a lighter version on weak hardware (fewer particles, simpler shaders). Devices without WebGL get a static fallback that preserves the visual language and conversion path.
