Web Development

Node.js Development

We build the back end: REST and GraphQL APIs, third-party integrations, scheduled jobs, webhooks and the services that sit between your website and everything else. Node, Express or Fastify, TypeScript, tested and documented.

The problem

Back-end work is where projects quietly go wrong. The integration works on the developer’s machine, nobody wrote down which environment variables it needs, there is no monitoring, and the first anyone hears about a failure is a customer saying their form never arrived.

How we do it

What the work actually involves

/01

APIs designed around your data, not around a tutorial

Endpoints modelled on the entities your business actually has, versioned so a change does not break the mobile app, and documented in OpenAPI so the next team can read it without reading the source.

/02

Integrations that fail loudly

CRM, payments, booking, ERP, shipping. Every outbound call has a timeout, a retry policy and a dead-letter path, and every failure produces an alert with enough context to act on. Silent failure is the expensive kind.

/03

Deployment that matches your hosting, not ours

Managed Node hosts, containers, serverless functions and traditional VPS boxes all have different constraints — CommonJS versus ESM, cold starts, port binding, filesystem persistence. We build for the target you have rather than handing you something that only runs on a platform you would have to migrate to.

Included

What you actually receive

  • REST or GraphQL API with OpenAPI documentation
  • Authentication, authorisation and rate limiting
  • Third-party integrations with retry, timeout and alerting
  • Automated tests and a CI pipeline that blocks a failing merge
  • Structured logging, health checks and uptime monitoring
  • Runbook covering deploy, rollback, environment variables and on-call steps

Tools we use

  • Node.js
  • Express
  • Fastify
  • TypeScript
  • PostgreSQL
  • MongoDB
  • Redis
  • Docker

Still deciding

  • Node.js vs PHP

    Both are mature, fast and widely deployed. Your team and your hosting decide this more than the languages do.

  • Headless vs Traditional CMS

    Headless wins when content feeds more than one front end. For a single website it is usually a downgrade for the people using it.

Book a call

Yes. We start with a read-only audit — dependencies, test coverage, error handling, deployment path — and give you a written list of what is fragile and what it would cost to fix, before we change a line. You are free to take that list elsewhere.
