Web Development Services
We build the server side of mobile apps, admin panels, customer portals and web applications. New projects are usually TypeScript end to end: NestJS or Fastify with PostgreSQL on the server and Next.js on the front. Platforms already running on Laravel, Yii2 or Rails we continue on their own stack.
Who comes to us for web development
Most of our web work is the part users never see as a separate product: the server, the API, the admin panel. The rest are sites that have to carry traffic and sell.
- You are building a mobile app and need the backend, API and admin panel behind it
- Your team manages orders, users or content in spreadsheets and needs a proper admin panel
- Customers should see their orders, bookings, documents or subscriptions in a personal account
- Your online store needs a new interface, payment integration or marketing tools
- Your web app was built fast on Next.js or Node.js, and now every release breaks something else
- You have a platform built by another team that has to be developed further
What we build
Backends and APIs
Server side for mobile and web products: accounts and roles, data, payments, notifications and integrations with third-party services. APIs come with documentation, so another team can use them later.
Admin panels and internal tools
Interfaces for your team to manage content, users, orders and reports. Built around how people actually work, with roles and permissions, instead of a generic template.
Customer portals
Personal accounts where customers see their orders, bookings, documents or subscriptions, pay and update their details themselves instead of writing to support.
Web apps on Next.js
Customer-facing web applications on the Next.js App Router, rendered on the server or regenerated incrementally (SSR and ISR), so pages load fast and search engines index them. Typed APIs with tRPC or Hono between front and back.
Online stores and marketing sites
Catalogue, checkout, payment systems and promo tools, plus landing pages and company sites. Stores and sites your team edits without a developer we usually build on WordPress and WooCommerce, which have their own page.
Work on existing platforms
New features, redesign and refactoring for platforms built by other teams. We read the code first and tell you whether it is cheaper to develop what exists or to rebuild it.
The stack follows the task
For new products our default is TypeScript on both sides: NestJS with Prisma and PostgreSQL on the server, or Fastify when the service is small and speed matters, and Next.js with the App Router for the web client. tRPC or Hono shares the API types between them, so a renamed field breaks the build instead of production. We also work on PHP (Laravel and Yii2), Ruby on Rails and Python, and when you come with a platform built on one of them, we usually continue on its stack. A change is proposed only when the current stack is actually holding the product back, because paying for the wrong tools is a cost you carry for years.
- A stack recommendation with the reasons, before the estimate
- Types shared between server and client, so API changes are caught at build time
- Architecture and data model written down, not kept in developers' heads
- Code in your repository, with instructions to build and deploy it
- No extra frameworks or paid tools you would have to maintain for nothing
One server side for apps, web and the team behind them
A typical project for us is one backend with several clients. For ELLO Music we built a music video distribution platform where one Laravel backend serves iOS and Android apps and a Vue.js web client. Stellium Music App follows the same pattern, with separate sides for listeners, artists and advertisers. We design the data model and the API first, so a new client, a partner integration or an automation can be added later without rebuilding the core, and an admin panel lets the business run day to day without calling a developer for every change.
- One API for mobile apps, the web client and partner integrations
- Roles and permissions for customers, staff and partners
- Admin panel for content, users, orders and reports
- Payments, email, push notifications and analytics connected
- Room to add new clients and integrations later
Stores and sites that have to sell
For NIS-Store, one of the largest importers of Xiaomi devices to Europe and the USA, we developed a new interface for the online store, integrated payment systems and added marketing tools. For LunchPoint we built a service for the UK market that brings together restaurants, their menus, discounts and upcoming events, with search by location. Sites that sell need the same engineering care as internal systems, plus close attention to page speed, analytics and checkout, where a small error costs real money. Stores on WordPress and WooCommerce and technical SEO audits each have their own page.
- Responsive interface checked down to phone screens
- Payment systems and checkout integration
- Analytics and conversion tracking set up before launch
- Page speed checked before release
- A content management system your team can use without a developer
How a web project runs
Discovery and scope
We clarify users, roles, integrations and what already exists. You get a written scope, a stack recommendation and an estimate in time and money.
UX/UI design
Prototypes and layouts for the key pages and states, prepared for implementation. You approve the interface before development starts.
Architecture
Data model, API and infrastructure planned up front. You get a documented design that any competent team can work with.
Development
Backend and frontend in sprints, with work you can see and try on a test server along the way.
Testing and launch
QA of functionality, layouts and integrations, then deployment to your hosting or cloud. The site goes live on accounts registered to you.
Support
Updates, fixes, monitoring and new features after launch, for as long as you need them.

Frequently asked questions
Can you work with an existing site or platform?
Yes, and most of our web work starts that way. We read the code first and tell you whether it is cheaper to develop what exists or to rebuild it. Both answers happen, and you get the reasons either way.
WordPress or custom development: which one do we need?
WordPress when the site is mostly content and your team publishes pages, news and landing pages itself; our WordPress and WooCommerce page covers that work. Custom development, usually TypeScript with NestJS and Next.js, when there is business logic: accounts, orders, roles, integrations, calculations. Many projects use both, with WordPress for the marketing site and a custom platform behind the login.
Why TypeScript for new projects?
One language on the server and in the browser means shared types: when the API changes, the build fails before users see an error. TypeScript developers are also easy to hire, so a team that takes over later can read the code. For a platform already running on PHP or Rails, this is not a reason to rewrite it.
How is the price calculated?
We break the project into pages, features and integrations, estimate each in hours and add design, QA and launch work. You then choose a fixed scope, a dedicated team or hourly work. We do not publish prices, because a landing page and a customer portal are not comparable.
How long does a web project take?
A promo site and a platform with accounts, payments and integrations are very different amounts of work, so we answer after going through the requirements. You get an estimate before the start, and if the scope changes, the estimate is updated openly.
Who owns the hosting, the domain and the accounts?
You do. We can set up the infrastructure and administer it, but the accounts are registered to you from the start, so nothing depends on our continued involvement.
Do you support sites after launch?
Yes: updates, fixes, monitoring and new features, including for sites built by other teams. Details are on our website support page.
