Always on. Keeps the site working and remembers choices like your theme and this one.

Measures our ads and helps us reach the right people (Google Ads, Meta, X, Apollo).
Next.js development
We build custom websites, dashboards and web apps in Next.js and React, and fast content sites in Astro with Sanity or another headless CMS.
Worked on websites for teams like
Selected work
From AI company websites to frontend platforms, custom builds that need more control than Framer or Webflow.
We helped Quotient shape a clearer product and digital presence for teams using AI agents in content and marketing.
Read the case study: Quotient"Overall, they're an ideal partner for early-stage tech startups: easy to collaborate with, tech-savvy, modern in approach, and reasonably priced. What stood out most about DesignMe was their impeccable design sense and aesthetic."
Max DavishCTO @QuotientAIOur development process
We turn product goals, designs, and technical requirements into a working Next.js experience your team can launch, maintain, and extend.
Week 1
We review the product, goals, designs, content, integrations, user flows, and what the build needs to support after launch.
Typical outputs:
Week 1-2
We define the frontend structure, routes, components, CMS or data needs, API requirements, and the right setup for the project.
Typical outputs:
Week 2-3
We build the interface in Next.js, React and Tailwind: responsive pages, components, flows and product surfaces.
Typical outputs:
Week 3-4
We connect the frontend to APIs, auth, CMS, database flows, third-party tools and product-specific logic.
Typical outputs:
Week 4+
We test the build, polish the interface, review edge cases, fix bugs, prepare deployment, and support the final launch.
Typical outputs:
Going headless
The CMS, the framework and the host are three separate decisions. These are the questions we settle with you first.
Editors wait on developers, plugins eat hours, or the same content feeds site, app and docs.
A small site, WooCommerce at the core or happy editors: better hosting is the cheaper fix.
Case studies, integrations and authors as their own types and fields, with live preview.
Preview deploys per branch and instant rollbacks. Hobby is free; Pro is priced per seat.
A 301 for every changed URL, matching metadata and a speed check against the old site.
Both sites run until redirects check out, and DNS moves while someone watches Search Console.
How we choose
We build in all of these, so the pick follows what you’re building, not what we prefer.
| What you’re building | Our pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Logged-in areas, dashboards and per-user pages | Next.js | It shares components and logic with your React product |
| A marketing site, blog or docs | Astro | It ships HTML first, with JavaScript only where a component needs it |
| A team happy in wp-admin | WordPress API | Keep the editors where they are and rebuild only the front end |
| Content for the site, the app and the docs | Sanity | Typed content with its own fields, previewed before it goes live |
| Content that has to go live at once | Next.js | Pages refresh when content changes, without a full rebuild |
| A team that edits on a canvas | Framer, Webflow | If code isn’t needed, we’ll say so and build it there |
What we deliver
We build the frontend structure, components, integrations and product logic that keep custom sites and platforms fast and easy to extend.
We plan routes, components, layouts, and states before the build turns messy.
Reusable components for pages, dashboards, product flows, and custom interfaces.
We connect the frontend to APIs, auth, CMS, payments, and product data.
Custom flows, user states, roles, permissions, and interactions built around real use.
Fast loading, clean structure, responsive layouts, and technical SEO basics.
A clean Next.js setup your team can understand, maintain, and build on.
Marketing sites, blogs and docs in Astro: static HTML first, React only where a page needs it.
Sanity, Storyblok or Contentful wired into Next.js or Astro, with preview before publishing.
Why DesignMe
Custom code is only worth it if the result is easier to grow. We plan the build around what your team needs to change after launch.
Tools and workflow
We use the stack that fits the project, the team, and what needs to happen after launch.

Still having more questions?
Send us your product, current site, repo or Figma. We’ll tell you which stack fits and what the build involves.
You need custom development when the site needs logic a builder can’t hold: logged-in areas, dashboards, calculators, deep API integrations, or content from several sources. Also when you want to own the code, or let AI agents work on it through git. If Framer or Webflow covers what you need, we’ll tell you, and we build in those too.
DesignMe recommends Astro for marketing sites, blogs and docs, where most pages are the same for everyone: it ships HTML first and adds JavaScript only where a component needs it. Next.js for products, platforms and sites that share code with a React app or need many dynamic, per-user pages. Some teams run both: Astro for the marketing site, Next.js for the app.
Yes. Sanity is our usual pick, with next-sanity on Next.js and the official @sanity/astro integration on Astro. Storyblok, Contentful, or git-based Keystatic and TinaCMS work too. We model the content with you, set up preview, and connect publishing to the site.
Yes. Editors work in the CMS, often Sanity Studio on your own domain, and publishing updates the site. On Next.js changes can appear live without a rebuild; on a static Astro site a publish triggers a quick rebuild. We agree who edits what before the build.
Yes. We connect the frontend to APIs, auth, databases, payments and third-party tools, and build the product logic behind them. For heavy backend systems we work alongside your engineers.
Yes. We can extend an existing Next.js or React codebase, follow your conventions and review process, or build a new frontend your team takes over. We review what exists first, then agree what to keep and what to rebuild.
Usually Vercel, Cloudflare or Netlify, on your own account. Next.js fits Vercel best; Astro runs well on all three. You own the repository and the hosting, not us.
Yes. A repo with clear components, tokens and docs is easy for Claude Code or Cursor to work in, and every change arrives as a pull request with a preview. We set up the docs and rules agents need, and our AI workflows service connects them to your team’s chat.
It depends on scope. The process above shows the usual order, from technical direction to launch support. We give you a timeline after the first technical review, once we know the pages, integrations and content involved.
A working site or product in a repository you own, deployed on your hosting, with a CMS your team can use, documentation, and a handover call. If you want us to keep going, we can stay on for new features and support.
You've reached the end, so now…
We’ll help you map the right scope, team, timeline, and next steps.
