How We Develop Your Website
Transparency, professionalism, and a well-defined process. Discover each step of your digital project development.
The process described applies to complete institutional projects. Smaller projects or those with limited budgets may follow a simplified process.
Transparency First
This page exists so you know exactly how we work. We don't believe in vague promises or exaggerated marketing. We believe in clear processes, justified technical decisions, and measurable results.
Process Applicability
The process described on this page typically applies to:
- Complete institutional websites (10+ pages)
- Projects with budgets above €5,000
- Projects requiring custom functionalities
- Companies that value process and documentation
Smaller projects, landing pages, or websites with limited budgets follow a simplified process, always maintaining quality standards.
Discovery
Before writing a single line of code, we need to understand
The discovery phase is the most critical of the entire project. This is where we establish the foundation for success. Without a deep understanding of your business, audience, and goals, any technical solution will be compromised.
Planning
Structure, content, and technical architecture
With the business understanding established, we move to the concrete definition of what will be built. This phase transforms insights into actionable technical and creative specifications.
Development
Every technical decision has a reason
The phase where architecture comes to life. But development, for us, isn't just 'writing code'. It's making informed technical decisions that impact performance, maintainability, and user experience.
We explain below the technical choices we make and, crucially, why we make them. Total transparency about the 'how' and the 'why'.
Animations
Tailwind CSS vs Framer Motion
For most institutional websites, we use native animations via Tailwind CSS and modern CSS.
Porquê:
- Less JavaScript = smaller bundle and faster loading
- Better Core Web Vitals and SEO
- Fewer dependencies = simplified maintenance
- GPU-accelerated by default
Framer Motion is used when it really adds value: complex layout animations, interactive gestures, or sophisticated micro-interactions.
Testing
Quality on all devices
Before launch, the website goes through a rigorous testing process to ensure quality in all dimensions.
Devices and Browsers
- Desktop tests (Windows, macOS)
- Tablet and mobile tests (iOS, Android)
- Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge compatibility
- Responsiveness tests on multiple viewports
Performance
