Web application development for Perth businesses

We build in TypeScript across the front end, back end, database and APIs, using a stack such as Next.js, React, Node.js and PostgreSQL. Next.js and React suit products with rich interfaces and let your product use one language across the front and back end. If your existing team works in PHP, Ruby or Python, Laravel, Rails or Django could fit its skills more closely.

Hosting is another choice. Managed platforms such as Vercel, Supabase and Firebase reduce setup and server upkeep. Running directly on AWS or Google Cloud gives you more control and can cost less at scale, though it brings more operations work.

For sign-in and billing, established services remove a lot of edge-case work; custom builds fit unusual pricing or strict data rules. We help you make these choices by turning your idea into a feature list and agreeing what the first version needs. That gives the technical decision a practical starting point.

Australian guidance recommends WCAG 2.2 at a minimum of Level AA for digital goods and services. We use that recommendation when designing your app's flows and screens, so accessibility is addressed in the interface work before development begins.

For an app taking card payments, the removal of surcharging on debit, prepaid and credit card payments on the specified eftpos, Mastercard and Visa networks affects checkout. We set up the subscription checkout without those card surcharges and account for the payment rules when designing billing.

Bring what you already know about the product and its users.

• Users and their jobDescribe who will use it, how they do the work today and what they would stop using.
• First releaseNote which account and billing features a new SaaS product needs at the start.
• Pricing modelConsider per-seat, usage-based or flat plans; the choice shapes billing and permissions.

  Building every account and billing component from scratch

  Check established services first, so budget is not spent recreating work users do not see.

• !

  Treating every payment notification as new

  Payment webhooks can arrive more than once or out of order. Handlers should skip events already processed and avoid relying on their order.

• !

  Launching without product analytics

  Track sign-ups, activation steps and feature use from the first release, so decisions are based on what users do.

• !

  Releasing without staging and tested backups

  Test changes on a staging copy and test backups before a mistake becomes a live incident.
