The Stack Behind Every Build

From custom web applications built with Nuxt, Laravel and Strapi to CMS websites and online stores on WordPress, Drupal, Kentico and Magento, each technology has its own strengths. Explore what each one does best and when we recommend it.

Tools of the Trade

Frontend Framework

Next.js

Next.js is a free, open-source framework built on React for making fast websites and web applications that search engines can read easily. Pages are prepared on the server ahead of time, so visitors see content almost instantly, while built-in tools let our developers focus on features instead of setup.

  • Pages prepared in advance for fast loading and easy Google indexing.
  • Content refreshes in the background without rebuilding the whole site.
  • Images, fonts and scripts optimised automatically.
  • Built on React, with a large pool of ready-made components.
  • Connects to any headless CMS or online store through APIs.
  • Free, open source and deployable on almost any host.
Why Choose Next.js
  • Corporate and marketing websites where search visibility matters.
  • Online stores that must load quickly on mobile.
  • Publisher and news sites that update content often.
  • Portals that mix public pages with logged-in areas.
  • Making a slow WordPress, Drupal or Magento site load much faster, without changing the platform.
When to Use Next.js

Mix, Match and Build

Most websites run on more than one technology. Here’s how common project needs map to the right web development stack, and how each piece works with the others.

Project NeedRecommended StackWhy It Fits
Corporate website that needs to rank on search enginesNuxt + Strapi

Editors manage content in Strapi, while Nuxt renders each page on the server, so visitors and search engines get fast, readable pages.

Customer portal or booking system with logins and paymentsNuxt + Laravel

Laravel handles accounts, data and business logic behind the scenes, then connects to Nuxt through an API for a fast, responsive frontend.

Website and mobile app sharing the same contentStrapi

Content is entered once in Strapi and delivered through its API to both the website and the app, keeping them in sync.

Government or university website with many editors and languagesDrupal

FAQs

Still curious? Unravel the answers, one slice at a time.

  • We work with Nuxt, Laravel and Strapi for custom websites and web applications, alongside WordPress, Drupal, Kentico and Magento for content management and e-commerce. A project can combine more than one technology. The choice follows the features you need, your team’s publishing workflow and the systems you already use.

  • An established CMS is a practical starting point when your main task is publishing pages, articles, products or other repeatable content. A custom application becomes useful when your business needs its own booking rules, approval steps, account features or data connections. You can also combine a CMS with custom features instead of rebuilding everything from scratch.

  • A headless CMS stores content separately from the website that displays it. This can suit a custom website design or a project where a website and an app share the same content. It also introduces a separate frontend to build and maintain. For a straightforward website, a conventional CMS may be simpler; headless is an option, not a requirement.

  • No technology guarantees higher rankings. The build still needs useful content, pages search engines can access, clear links, accurate metadata and good mobile usability. We assess those requirements when choosing and implementing the technology, rather than treating a platform name as an SEO result.

  • Yes, content migration can form part of the project. We first agree which pages, files and other data need to move, then map them to the new structure. If URLs change, the migration plan should include relevant redirects and updated internal links. Content and functionality must be checked before the old setup is retired.
