Web Applications
Web Applications
Full-stack web apps built to handle real users, real load, and real edge cases from day one. Not a prototype dressed up as a product.
Web applications tend to start strong and degrade gradually. The codebase that was clean at launch gets harder to change with every feature added. What worked for fifty users starts showing cracks at five hundred. By the time the product has real traction, new features take three times as long to ship because nobody planned for what growth would actually require.
We build with the intent of not having to rebuild. The right architectural decisions made early, code your team can extend without reverse-engineering it, and documentation that reflects what was actually built. Not every project achieves this, but every project we take on is scoped and built with this as the standard.
We work full-stack: React and Next.js on the frontend, backed by APIs and database architecture built to handle growth. Whether you are starting from scratch, replacing something your business has outgrown, or adding a web layer to an existing system, the starting point is the same: understand what you are building before you build it.
What's Included
Everything in scope.
- Product scoping and technical specification
- UX design and interactive prototyping
- Frontend development (React / Next.js)
- Backend API development
- Database architecture and optimisation
- Authentication, authorisation, and user management
- Third-party integrations and webhook handling
- Deployment and CI/CD pipeline setup
- Performance optimisation and load testing
- Post-launch support and maintenance options
How We Work
The engagement, step by step.
Scoping
We define the product before we quote it. What it does, who uses it, what the technical requirements are, and what is in phase one versus what comes later. You get a written specification before any code is written.
Design
UX and UI designed for the actual users, with interactive prototypes you can navigate and test before development begins. Changes at this stage cost a fraction of what they cost once the build has started.
Development
Iterative builds in focused cycles. You see working software regularly, not a reveal at the end of a six-month engagement. Feedback at each stage shapes what gets built next.
Quality Assurance
Functional testing, cross-browser testing, and performance testing under realistic load. Not 'it works on my machine.'
Launch
Deployment to your infrastructure or cloud provider of choice, with a CI/CD pipeline set up so future releases do not require manual steps. Your team should be able to ship updates confidently.
Handoff
Documentation that reflects what was built, a code walkthrough with your technical team, and a support arrangement if you want one.
Who This Is For
Is this the right fit?
Startups building their first product.
You want it built correctly the first time, not rebuilt eighteen months later when it cannot handle the load you expected. We scope carefully so the first version is right-sized: enough to ship and validate, not so much that it takes nine months to launch.
SMBs replacing software they have outgrown.
The spreadsheet that worked for two people breaks down at ten. The off-the-shelf tool you bought to fix it covers about seventy percent of how you actually work, and that gap costs you every day. Custom web applications exist for exactly this situation.
Teams that need internal tooling.
Not every web application is customer-facing. Internal tools often deliver the highest return of anything a business can build, and they are consistently the last thing to get funded.
Common Questions
Things people usually ask.
Still need something answered? Ask us directly →
Yes, but we will review it first. Depending on what we find, we will give you an honest assessment of what is worth keeping and what will cost more to work around than to replace. We will not inherit a problem and hand it back to you six months later in a different shape.
A well-scoped MVP is typically eight to sixteen weeks. More complex platforms take longer. We do not give timelines until we have scoped the work. An estimate without a scope is a guess with a number attached.
We set up hosting and deployment, and we offer ongoing support if you want it. We document the infrastructure clearly so you can run it independently or hand it to someone else.
They usually do. We flag scope changes as they come up and are direct about what they mean for timeline and budget. No surprises at the end of a sprint.
