Web Development Service | Basmar Software

An MVP web application — core features, one user role, no legacy integrations — typically starts around $15,000-$30,000. A full product with multiple user roles, third-party APIs, and custom backend logic runs $50,000-$150,000+.

The biggest variable isn't the tech stack — it's how clearly the requirements are defined before development starts. Vague specs lead to scope creep, which is where budgets break. We do a paid scoping phase before any fixed-price engagement to make sure both sides know exactly what's being built.

A straightforward MVP takes 8-16 weeks from kickoff to production deployment. More complex products with multiple integrations, custom workflows, or high-traffic requirements take 4-9 months.

The biggest timeline risk isn't development — it's unclear requirements and delayed feedback on deliverables. Teams that review sprint demos quickly and give clear decisions consistently ship faster than those who don't.

On the front-end: React, Next.js, or Vue.js — chosen based on your product's needs, not our defaults. Next.js is our default for most SaaS products because of its SSR/SSG capabilities and SEO benefits.

On the back-end: Node.js for fast, event-driven APIs; .NET Core for enterprise-grade systems with complex business logic; Python for data-heavy or ML-adjacent workloads.

Database: PostgreSQL for relational data, MongoDB for document-oriented structures, Redis for caching. Cloud: AWS, Azure, or GCP depending on your existing infrastructure.

If you have an existing stack, we adapt to it rather than rewrite it.

Yes, and we do it regularly. Before we write a single line, we run a technical audit — reviewing the architecture, identifying the riskiest parts of the codebase, and documenting what needs to stay, what needs refactoring, and what needs replacing.

We don't walk in and rewrite everything. That's almost always the wrong call. We stabilize first, then improve.

Security is built into the process, not added at the end. We follow the OWASP Top 10 as our baseline checklist, which covers injection attacks, broken authentication, sensitive data exposure, and six other critical vulnerability classes.

In practice: all inputs are validated and sanitized server-side, authentication uses industry-standard protocols (OAuth2, JWT), sensitive data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and every deployment includes a security scan before it reaches production.

MVPs are a significant part of our work. We're built for it — small focused scope, fast iteration, and a production deployment that's actually production-ready rather than a prototype with a login screen.

What we won't do is build an MVP that's so cut down it can't be extended. Every MVP we ship is built on a foundation that can grow — proper architecture, clean code, real CI/CD. The goal is to validate fast without creating technical debt you'll spend the next year paying off.

With a dedicated team, you get a complete cross-functional group — frontend, backend, QA, and a tech lead — operating as a self-managed unit. They handle sprint planning, task breakdown, and delivery. Best when you don't have internal engineering capacity.

Staff augmentation means individual engineers who slot into your existing team under your technical leadership. You direct the work; we provide the execution. Best when you have a strong internal team but need more hands for a specific period.

Both models have their place. We'll tell you honestly which one fits your situation.

Every pull request goes through peer code review before it merges — no exceptions. We enforce consistent coding standards through automated linters and formatters that run on every commit.

Test coverage is tracked per sprint. Our baseline is 80%+ across unit and integration tests, with end-to-end tests covering the critical user flows. Before any production deployment, the full test suite runs in CI and has to pass clean.

You get access to the repository from day one. The codebase is yours — no lock-in, no proprietary frameworks, no black boxes.
