Beyond the website
Web Development.
Sheffield.
Web design gets your business online. Web development is what happens when you need your website to actually do something - handle complex logic, connect to other systems, automate processes or deliver a bespoke experience that no off-the-shelf solution can replicate.
Web design vs web development
Our approach to. web development projects.
Development projects fail most often for two reasons - poorly defined scope at the start and poor communication during the build. We address both.
- Every project starts with a written brief and a fixed scope - no open-ended estimates that balloon later
- We build in stages and share progress regularly - you're not waiting until the end to see what you're getting
- Code is clean, documented and handed over in full - you own it and can take it anywhere
- We write tests for business-critical logic - things that need to keep working when code changes
- Security is considered throughout - not patched in at the end
Our stack
Technologies we. work with.
We build primarily on Next.js and React for the frontend, with Node.js on the backend for most API and application work. We use Payload CMS for content management and work with a range of databases and third-party services depending on project requirements. We're not dogmatic about technology - we use what's right for the project.
If you have an existing codebase in a different framework, get in touch. We'll assess it honestly and tell you whether we can work with it or whether a different approach makes more sense.
What to expect
What a well-scoped development project. looks like.
Good development work takes time to scope properly. The businesses that come to us with a clear picture of what they need - even if they don't know the technical solution - get faster, cheaper and better results than those who start with a vague idea and try to figure it out as they go.
Here is what you can realistically expect from a well-run development project:
- A fixed scope and fixed price agreed before any code is written
- Regular builds to review throughout - not a finished product appearing at the end
- A codebase that's maintainable - built so your next developer can understand it, not just us
- Honest communication when something is more complex than expected - no surprises at invoice time
- Full handover including documentation, repository access and any relevant credentials

“Anybody looking for a website marketing company this is the only company you need to deal with. These guys Ian and Tom know what they’re doing. Very very good and knowledgeable and don’t just take your money and do nothing in return they give excellent service. I was recommended to these guys after going through a very bad experience with another company and I wish I’d found them sooner. Nothing is too much trouble and there always there when I need advice and guidance. I’d give 10 stars if I could!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Approachable, enthusiastic and patient, all great qualities that helped me navigate my way into the unknown world of setting up my own business. They made it seem less scary, and worked with me at my pace, and with my time zone! Come to Florida Ian and Tom first rounds on me. Professional, quality and very reasonably priced. Will absolutely recommend. 5 stars from me.”
