FAQs
Common
questions.
React or Next.js, which do you use?
We default to Next.js for almost every project because it gives you React plus server-side rendering, file-based routing, API routes, and edge delivery in one framework. For internal tools or SPAs with no SEO requirements, plain React (Vite) may be more appropriate, we'll advise on the discovery call.
Do you build SPAs or server-rendered apps?
Both. We use Next.js App Router for server-rendered sites where SEO and Core Web Vitals matter. For dashboards, portals, and internal tools where SEO is irrelevant, we build client-side SPAs.
Can you work with our existing React codebase?
Yes. Whether you need new features added, a performance overhaul, a TypeScript migration, or a refactor of legacy code, we can work within your existing repo and coding standards.
How much does a React website cost?
A Next.js marketing site starts from around £3,000. A SaaS dashboard or web application with auth, billing, and data layers typically starts from £10,000. We provide a flat written quote after a free discovery call.
Do you set up CI/CD and deployment?
Yes. Every project ships with a GitHub Actions workflow, Vercel (or your preferred host) deployment, branch preview environments, and environment variable management.
What hosting do you recommend?
Vercel for Next.js projects, it's purpose-built for the framework and offers edge delivery, preview deployments, and analytics. For projects requiring more infrastructure control, we configure AWS or a VPS with Docker.
