What we do

From a new API to tidying up one that grew without a plan.

REST APIs

APIs for web and mobile apps, with versioning, pagination and documentation your developers can follow.

Authentication and roles

Login, tokens, password reset, roles and permissions done properly.

Database integration

MySQL, PostgreSQL or MongoDB with clean models, migrations and backups in mind.

Real-time features

Live updates and notifications with Socket.IO alongside your API.

Upgrades and clean-up

Express 4 apps moved to Express 5, old dependencies replaced, security issues fixed.

Testing and documentation

Automated API tests and OpenAPI documentation for existing or new endpoints.

Questions

Why use Express for an API?

It's small, fast and flexible, and almost every Node.js developer knows it. For larger projects that need more structure we may suggest NestJS, which can run on Express.

Do you use Express 4 or Express 5?

Express 5 for new projects. Existing Express 4 apps keep working; we upgrade them when it makes sense, with tests to catch anything that changes.

Can you document our API?

Yes. We write OpenAPI (Swagger) documentation so app developers and partners can see every endpoint, its inputs and its responses.

How long does it take?

A simple REST API typically takes 2 to 3 weeks, a medium-complexity API with authentication and several resources 4 to 6 weeks, and complex systems 8 to 12 weeks or more. Your proposal has the timeline.

How much does it cost?

Every project gets a written proposal after a free call: scope, milestones and one fixed price, plus 18% GST. Payment is usually 40% to start and 60% on delivery; larger projects are split into milestones.

Do you provide hosting?

No. We don't sell hosting. Your app runs on hosting or a server in your name; we help you choose it, set it up and deploy for you.

Do you support the app after launch?

Yes: Express upgrades, bug fixes, security updates and new features, by the hour or on a monthly plan.
