Frontend is everything users interact with. Forms, dashboards, buttons, navigation, data visualizations. When someone uses your web app, they’re using the frontend. It’s where usability lives or dies.
We build frontends that are intuitive to use, fast to load, and built to last.
Frontend development covers everything that runs in the user’s browser.
The visual layer of your application. Layouts, typography, colors, spacing. Every screen users see, every element they interact with. We design for clarity first. If users have to think about how to use it, we’ve failed.
Forms that validate as you type. Dashboards that update in real-time. Filters that respond instantly. Tables that sort and search. The interactions that make a web app feel responsive and modern.
Charts, graphs, tables, reports. Taking raw data from your backend and presenting it in ways humans can actually understand and act on. Good data visualization turns information into insights.
Your web app works on desktop, tablet, and mobile. Same functionality, adapted for each screen size. For internal tools, desktop is usually primary. For customer-facing apps, mobile matters more.
We use modern JavaScript frameworks that are proven, maintained, and built to last.
Vue is our go-to framework for most web applications. It’s powerful enough for complex apps while remaining approachable and maintainable.
Best for: Most business applications, internal tools, dashboards, data-heavy interfaces.
React is the industry standard, backed by Meta. We use it when project requirements or client preferences call for it.
Considerations: React offers more flexibility, which also means more decisions. It requires more discipline to keep codebases consistent.
During discovery, we’ll discuss which framework fits your project. For most new web apps, we recommend Vue. If you have specific requirements or preferences, we’ll work with what makes sense.
The framework matters less than you might think. Both Vue and React can build excellent web apps. What matters more is clean architecture, good testing, and maintainable code.
Technical choices aside, good frontend development shares common principles.
Slow interfaces frustrate users. We optimize for speed: efficient rendering, lazy loading, code splitting, image optimization. Your app should feel instant, even with large datasets.
Good frontend works for everyone. Keyboard navigation, screen reader support, proper contrast, semantic HTML. Accessibility isn’t an afterthought. It’s built in from the start.
Code that works today should be easy to modify tomorrow. Clear component structure, consistent patterns, documented decisions. When you need changes in two years, the codebase should still make sense.
We write frontends that can be tested. Component tests, integration tests, end-to-end tests. Automated testing catches bugs before users do and makes future changes safer.
Frontend is only half the picture. It displays data and captures input, but that data has to come from somewhere.
This is what backend provides. Frontend and backend work together. One without the other isn’t a complete application.
We build full applications. Frontend, backend, and the APIs that connect them. You’re not coordinating separate vendors or stitching pieces together.
How we approach frontend development within the larger project.
Frontend development starts with designs. Wireframes and visual mockups become working interfaces. We can work with your designs or create them ourselves.
Close collaboration between design and development catches issues early. “This design won’t work well on mobile” is better discovered before development than during.
We build frontends as collections of reusable components. A button component, a form field component, a data table component. This approach ensures consistency and speeds up development.
You’ll see progress throughout development, not just at the end. Milestone releases let you test real functionality. Feedback gets incorporated along the way.
Every frontend we build is tested across browsers and devices. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge. Desktop and mobile. We catch inconsistencies before your users do.
Types of interfaces we build regularly.
Data at a glance. Key metrics, charts, status indicators. Dashboards summarize what matters most so users can make decisions quickly.
Large datasets made manageable. Sorting, filtering, searching, pagination. Export options. Inline editing when appropriate.
Multi-step processes that guide users through complex tasks. Validation, progress indicators, conditional logic. Forms that adapt based on previous answers.
Interfaces for managing content, users, and settings. CRUD operations, user permissions, audit logs. The backend of customer-facing applications.
We recommend Vue for most projects, but we’ll discuss your specific situation during discovery. If you have existing React code or strong preferences, we work with React too. Both frameworks produce excellent results.
Yes. If you have an existing application that needs updates or additions, we can work with your current codebase. We’ll assess the code quality and recommend the best approach.
Frontend is typically 30-40% of a web app project. For a moderate complexity app taking 3-4 months total, frontend might be 4-6 weeks. This overlaps with backend development.
We can build frontends for existing backends, provided the API is well-documented and reasonably designed. We’ll assess the API during discovery and let you know if there are concerns.
Yes. Every frontend we build works across device sizes. For internal tools, we typically optimize for desktop first. For customer-facing applications, we often prioritize mobile.
