FERRODEV

Custom software workshop

Software made to measure.

The way things built to last have always been made.

I design and build websites, applications and internal tools for small businesses. No templates, no middlemen and no fine print.

01 — What I do

What comes out of this workshop

  • A.01 · Websites

    A website that works for you

    Fast, clear and easy to find on Google. And usable by everyone: on a phone in full sun, with a screen reader or in a hurry.

  • A.02 · Internal tools

    Goodbye to the impossible spreadsheet

    If your business depends on a spreadsheet that only one person understands, there is a better way. I build the tool that fits the way you actually work.

  • A.03 · Applications

    Web and mobile apps

    From the idea to the app store, with one person responsible for the whole journey: design, development and launch.

  • A.04 · Reinforcement

    Reinforcement for your team

    Already have a technical team? I join as a frontend developer. My strengths: accessibility, design systems and performance.

What I don't doWordPress or online shops. If that is what you need, I will tell you on day one.

How things are done here

  1. Step 01

    We talk and decide what suits you

    You tell me the problem, not the solution. No commitment and no jargon. We think together about which solution really suits you: sometimes it is an application; sometimes, something much simpler. I will tell you even if it means less work for me.

  2. Step 02

    Fixed quote

    In writing, with scope and dates. If something changes, we talk about it beforehand, not on the invoice.

  3. Step 03

    I build, deliver and stay around

    You get a link from the start to follow the progress. No disappearing for two months. When it is done, the code is yours. And if something breaks, you know who to call: there is only one.

04 — Tools

My tools

You do not need to know them. What matters: they are current, widely used technologies with years behind them, so any other professional could carry on the work.

  • T.01

    Next.js

    The foundation of the websites and applications. Pages that load fast and that Google understands well.

  • T.02

    Tailwind CSS

    For building custom interfaces that stay consistent and easy to maintain over time.

  • T.03

    Node.js

    The engine of the part you do not see: your business logic and the handling of data.

  • T.04

    Express

    So that your systems talk to each other in an orderly and secure way.

  • T.05

    MongoDB

    Where your data is stored, with a flexible structure that grows with the business.

  • T.06

    Google Cloud

    Where everything lives: reliable infrastructure that holds up as the business grows.

05 — Who is behind it

A one-person workshop

FERRODEV is not an agency and does not pretend to be one. One person works here, with five years in the trade and three obsessions: that things load fast, that everyone can use them and that they still work five years from now.

When you write, I answer. When something breaks, I fix it. No sales reps, no middlemen and no broken telephone.

06 — Questions

Reasonable questions

Why not WordPress?
Because a template with twenty plugins is easy to start and hard to maintain. Custom-built software loads faster, is more secure and does exactly what you need.
What if you are gone tomorrow?
I work with standard, widely used technologies, and the code is yours from day one. Any professional can pick it up.
How long does it take?
It depends on the scope. What is fixed: the date goes in writing in the quote and you see the progress from the start.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what needs to be built, which is why we talk first. Then you get a fixed quote, with no surprises at the end.
Do you work alone?
Yes, and that is the point: you always talk to the person doing the work. If a project needs more hands, I tell you before we start.
What about maintenance?
After delivery I remain available. We agree on the maintenance that makes sense for you, or none if you do not need it.
