In today's digital world, web application development is not just a trend, but a necessity for companies that want to automate processes, increase efficiency, and reach a new target audience. Unlike static websites, these programs work directly in the browser, allowing users to perform complex actions: from order management to real-time analytics. If your business needs a modern, interactive solution that will work on any device, this article is for you. Let's look at how web application development goes from scratch, what technologies developers use, and why this is the key to your company's growth.
What is a modern web application?
Modern web applications are complex programs that the user interacts with through an Internet browser. They have a dynamic interface, complex backend logic and are often not inferior to native applications.
Single Page Application (SPA): A single-page application that is downloaded once. All subsequent actions and functions occur without reloading the page, as in Gmail or Telegram Web. This ensures high speed and smoothness.
Progressive Web App (PWA): Progressive web applications are a versatile option that combines the best features of a website and a mobile app. The PWA file can be "installed" on the smartphone screen, they work offline and support push notifications.
Multi Page Application (MPA): Multi-page applications, a classic approach for complex corporate portals, online stores, and catalogs. Clicking on links causes new pages to load.
The process of developing a web application: from idea to launch
A web application development project is a multi—step process that requires the coordinated work of a team of specialists.
Design and analytics
At this stage, we help the company to clearly describe all the requirements. We conduct market research, analyze competitors and user behavior. The result is a technical specification, prototypes, and a detailed plan with a deadline and budget. This is the basis for further success.
UI/UX design development
Designers create the visual part: they think through the logic of interaction, interactive elements, and adaptive layout for all screen sizes. The goal is to make the interface understandable and user—friendly for the target audience, so that it is easy to use.
Frontend and backend development
Frontend: This is the client part that the user sees. It uses a combination of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and powerful frameworks (React, Vue) to create it. We optimize the code for fast loading.
Backend: This is the server logic that processes queries, works with a database (for example, MySQL), and provides security. For the backend, we use proven technologies: Python (Django framework), Node.js, PHP. Django, for example, has built-in protection and helps you build a reliable application quickly.
Testing and launch
The testers perform a full check, identify and fix bugs. We are testing convenience (UX), security, and operation on different devices and under load. After successful testing, the application is launched on a real hosting. We help you set up the server and ensure stable operation.
Technology selection: how do we create reliable products
The right technology stack is the key to project success. We do not use ready-made templates or designers, but write code from scratch, taking into account the wishes of the customer and the specifics of the business.
For Frontend: React, Vue.js, Angular. This allows you to create complex interactive interfaces.
For Backend: Python/Django, Node.js, PHP. Django is an excellent choice for programming complex projects, as it provides high development speed and security.
Databases: MySQL (relational), MongoDB (NoSQL). The choice depends on the structure of your data.
DevOps: Docker for containerization, CI/CD for test and deployment automation. This speeds up the release of new versions.
How much does development cost and what does the price depend on?
The cost of developing a web application is one of the key issues. The price may vary depending on the complexity.
A simple MVP (minimum version of the product) for startups: from 300,000 rubles. The term is 1-2 months.
Corporate application with CRM and API integration: from 800,000 rubles. The term is 3-6 months.
Highly loaded project (analogues of marketplaces, online cinemas): from 1.5 million rubles.
You can find out the exact price only by studying the task in detail. We offer flexible payment options and are ready to offer a solution for your budget.
Cases and examples of real projects
Our studio has already helped many companies automate their business. Here are some real-life cases:
A corporate portal for a large holding company. We have developed a multi-page (MPA) application with a reporting system, an internal social network and integration with 1C. Thanks to our solution, the company was able to manage internal processes and reduce costs.
PWA for an online store. We have created a progressive web application that allows you to add products to your shopping cart, work offline, and receive push notifications about discounts. The purchase conversion rate increased by 25%.
SPA for a SaaS service. We have developed a one-page interactive application for real-time analytics. Used React and Django. The service has become a convenient tool for hundreds of users.
Why choose our studio for development?
Full cycle: We take care of all stages — from design and development to testing, launch and maintenance.
Experienced team: Our team consists only of specialists with experience in developing modern web applications — programmers, designers, testers and a project manager.
Transparency: You can always find out the work status through a convenient communication channel (Telegram, mail). We provide regular reports.
Warranty and support: After the launch, we do not abandon customers. We provide warranty service and help with the further development of the application.
