Programming
Backends, integrations, automations. Short projects, clear briefs, clean code.
Overview
We’ve been writing code for more than 20 years. Currently mostly in Python and PHP. We like small, sharp projects — a backend for an internal app, an integration between two systems, an automation that saves 20 hours a month.
Our favourite projects
- Integrations — got systems that should be talking to each other? We write the glue code.
- Internal tools — admin panels, dashboards, back-office tools.
- API backends — when you need a REST or GraphQL endpoint for a frontend or mobile team.
- Migration scripts — moving data from a legacy system, validation, reconciliation.
What we like
Good specs. Short iterations. No meetings that could have been an email. Clients who can say “no, we don’t need that” - that’s rare.
Tech stack
- Python
- PHP / Symfony
- Bootstrap
- Tailwind
- SQL
- Redis
Process
Brief
Short discovery call. We figure out if the project is a fit — and you figure out if you want to hire us.
Spec
We write a short design doc — what we're doing, what we're not, how we'll verify it. No surprises mid-flight.
Build & ship
1–2 week sprints with a demo at the end of each. Continuous delivery, not a big bang at the end.
FAQ
Do you also do frontend?
Yes, but we don't love building large React/Next.js projects. We're a better fit for server-rendered sites, htmx, Svelte, Astro. For bigger SPAs we'd rather recommend someone else.
Mobile apps?
We don't. We can build the backend for a mobile app, a REST API, or work from the specification you send us.
Existing code — or greenfield?
Both. We like small greenfield projects best (under 12 weeks), as well as maintaining and extending existing backends we didn't build.
