Our approach

How We Work With You

Whether you're launching a new website, building a complex web application, or need ongoing development support, we follow a straightforward, transparent process designed to deliver reliable results.

Here's what to expect when working with Darsh Web Solutions — from the first conversation to long-term support.

Process

A simple, transparent way of working.

We keep our process straightforward so you always know what's happening next — whether it's a small website or a complex custom application.

1

Discover & Plan

We understand your business, goals, audiences and technical requirements, then propose the right stack and scope.

2

Design & UX

Wireframes and UI designs with a strong focus on clarity, usability, and your brand's visual style.

3

Build & Integrate

We implement the frontend and backend, integrate APIs, and ensure everything works together smoothly.

4

Launch & Support

We handle deployment, basic SEO, performance optimisation and ongoing maintenance if you need it.

Engagement models

We offer flexible engagement options to match your project stage, budget and internal team structure.

  • Fixed-scope projects — Clear milestones, defined deliverables and predictable pricing for new websites, eCommerce stores and defined features.
  • Monthly retainers — Ongoing improvements, feature additions, bug fixes and optimisation for existing projects.
  • Dedicated team extension — Work as part of your in-house team for product companies that need senior development support.
  • White-label development — Partner with agencies to deliver projects under your brand, with transparent communication and reliable timelines.

We'll recommend the model that fits your stage, budget and internal team. Many clients start with a fixed project and continue with a monthly retainer.

Typical starting points

These are common situations where clients bring us in. If you're not sure exactly what you need, that's fine — start by telling us about your current situation.

  • New marketing site — You're launching or rebranding a business and need a professional web presence that converts visitors.
  • MVP for a SaaS or product — You have an idea and need a working prototype to test with real users before investing heavily.
  • Rebuild of an aging app — Your current website or application is hard to maintain, slow, or built on outdated technology.
  • Senior support for teams — Your in-house developers need help with architecture, code review, or handling overflow work.
Describe your situation

Communication

Clear updates, honest trade-offs.

We believe good development partnerships are built on transparency. You'll always have direct access to the people building your project, regular progress updates, and honest conversations about scope, timelines and priorities.

Weekly check-ins for active projects — Email updates or quick calls to keep you informed of progress, blockers and next steps.
Shared task boards — You'll see what's in progress, what's being tested and what's queued up next.
Staging environments — Review work-in-progress before it goes live, test features and provide feedback in a safe environment.
No jargon — We explain technical decisions in plain language, focusing on what matters for your business goals.

Our values

  • Long-term thinking — We build with maintainability in mind, not just fast launches.
  • Practical over trendy — We choose proven technology that solves your problem, not what's fashionable.
  • Partnerships, not transactions — Many clients have worked with us across multiple projects over several years.

Technology

Tech we use often (and why).

We're comfortable working in your existing stack or recommending one that suits your project. These are the tools we reach for most often — battle-tested, well-documented and built to last.

PHP & Laravel

Our primary backend stack. Laravel gives us structure, security and modern tooling while PHP remains widely supported and cost-effective to host.

WordPress & WooCommerce

Ideal for content-heavy sites and smaller eCommerce stores where non-technical teams need to manage updates themselves.

Vue, React & Svelte

Modern JavaScript frameworks for building interactive interfaces. We choose based on your team's familiarity and project complexity.

MySQL & REST APIs

Reliable database and API patterns that work across platforms — web, mobile and third-party integrations.

Tech stack overview

Here's a snapshot of technologies we work with regularly:

Already have a Laravel, WordPress or custom PHP project? We can audit your codebase, identify improvement opportunities and continue development from where things left off.

Timelines

How long does a project take?

It depends on scope, complexity and how quickly you can provide feedback. Here are rough guidelines for common project types:

Marketing website

2 – 3 weeks

5–15 pages, custom design, basic SEO, contact forms

eCommerce store

2 – 4 weeks

WooCommerce or custom, payment setup, product catalog, shipping

Custom web app (MVP)

2 – 4 weeks

User auth, dashboards, core features, API, basic mobile-friendly UI

API development

3 – 5 weeks

REST endpoints, authentication, documentation, third-party integrations

Mobile app

4 – 6 weeks

Cross-platform (iOS/Android), shared backend, app store deployment

Ongoing retainer

Monthly

Feature additions, bug fixes, optimisation, technical support

What affects timelines?

  • Scope clarity: Projects with well-defined requirements move faster than those where features evolve during development.
  • Feedback speed: How quickly you review designs, provide content and approve milestones has a big impact.
  • Integrations: Third-party APIs, payment gateways and external systems can add complexity and time.
  • Team availability: Parallel projects and holiday periods can affect delivery schedules.
