Development

Our knowledge of front-end development and integrations incorporates the latest in technology frameworks.

Tell me more

The development phase of a project is where the rubber really starts to hit the road. Using the insight and data from the UX and UI design as a foundation, our team of developers will start to build your product. Here, you’ll quickly start to see key areas of the product such as the user interface design, user journeys and technology choices all coming together.

What does it involve

One of our key principles is that our development team collaboratively review progress with you, typically on a twice weekly basis. We’ve found that this rapid approach of close communication and transparency reliably shortens the product delivery time, maintains project focus, and ensures that the end product effectively meets every business objective and user needs.

Our fortnightly meeting includes progress and road-map reviews, making changes if and when required.

As a project progresses and features are added, you’ll begin to see the product transition towards becoming a fully working product. Components within this exciting phase typically include:

  • Agile sprint planning – An iterative approach to development that ensures a close working relationship and rapid delivery
  • Front-end code development – Creating an attractive, engaging and user-centric UI system that makes navigation and operation simple
  • Performance optimisation – Making sure that the technical specification is delivering upon demand, on all devices
  • Integrations and user testing – Optimising your solution to ensure technical performance, scalability and cost-efficiency
  • Working as part of your team – Importantly we integrate with your IT team to help them integrate the code with your systems

What’s the outcome?

Towards the end of the development phase, the structural and functional mechanics of the product will be in place. You’ll have seen a rapid transition from UX wireframes to a fully working front-end and integrations that is now ready for integration with your systems. Typical deliverables from this phase are:

  • Front-end component libraries in typically in HTML, CSS, JS or built in ReactJS, NextJS, Tailwind
  • A modular based product containing the features and functions ready for integration
  • Integration with any of your systems that may include a CMS, database, third party services such as AI
  • Technical recommendations, onboarding and resourcing for your technical team

Our case study below details how we not only designed, but developed a new platform interface for a global security platform, and integrated it with a number of complex third party datasets that powered the platform.
