One language, browser to server

JavaScript that keeps working, instead of ageing out on a schedule.

JavaScript is the language of the web. It runs in every browser and, through Node.js, on the server too, so a single language can build both the screens people use and the logic behind them โ€” one of the foundations we work in across the wider technology stack.

That reach is also where the trouble starts. The JavaScript world changes fast, so businesses get told, every couple of years, that their perfectly good software is now "legacy" and needs rebuilding, and too often the front end got delivered while the back end that was supposed to make it work never quite did.

That is exactly where Avaib fits. We build the whole product, front end, Node back end and data, on steady foundations that keep evolving rather than ageing out, staffed by senior specialists who own the full stack, so you get finished software you own and can depend on for years.

What we build with JavaScript

Software across the whole range of what JavaScript does.

From React, Angular and Vue front ends to full-stack Node.js applications, SEO-safe rendering, TypeScript hardening and codebase rescues, here is the range of JavaScript work our senior specialists build and maintain.

A front-end developer building a React interface โ€” JavaScript development at Avaib โ€” Avaib

Front ends on React, Angular and Vue

Fast, responsive user interfaces built on the framework that fits your project, structured and tested so the screens your customers use every day stay quick, clear and easy to change.

A developer working on a Node.js back end in the terminal โ€” Avaib โ€” Avaib

Full-stack apps on Node.js

The front end and the back end in one language, with a proper Node API, database and authentication behind it, so you get a complete working product, not just a pretty screen with nothing wired up.

A responsive web app shown across multiple devices โ€” Avaib โ€” Avaib

SEO-safe rendering with Next.js and Nuxt

Server-rendered and pre-rendered pages so Google actually sees your content, instead of the empty page a plain single-page app hands the crawler and quietly loses you traffic for.

A single-page application dashboard on screen โ€” Avaib โ€” Avaib

TypeScript hardening and migration

Moving loosely-typed JavaScript to TypeScript so whole classes of bugs are caught before they ship, and the codebase becomes safer for the next developer to change without breaking things.

A web developer debugging JavaScript on a laptop โ€” Avaib โ€” Avaib

Performance and mobile optimisation

Cutting bloated bundle sizes and fixing the slow, janky loads that lose you mobile visitors, so the software passes Core Web Vitals and feels fast on a real phone on a real network.

Rescuing and modernising existing JavaScript

Taking a messy, ageing or abandoned JavaScript codebase, auditing its dependencies and security, and turning it into something structured, documented and safe to build on again.

The rewrite treadmill

How working JavaScript software keeps getting called "legacy".

This is the pattern we are most often called in to break. It is not that your software stopped working; it is that the JavaScript world moved, and someone is ready to bill you for keeping up. Everything about how we work is designed to get you off this treadmill.

01

You build on this year's framework

The software is delivered on whatever JavaScript framework is fashionable at the time, often chosen because it is what the team already likes, not because it is the steadiest choice for something you need to run for years.

02

A couple of years later, it is "legacy"

The framework moves on, the packages it depends on stop being maintained, and you are told the code is now outdated and risky. Nothing about what your software does has changed, but the ground under it has.

03

You are quoted for a rewrite you did not need

The fix on offer is to rebuild the whole thing on the next framework, and start the clock again. It benefits whoever is billing for the rewrite far more than it benefits you.

Frameworks will always move on. The way off the treadmill is to build on steady, well-supported foundations and keep dependencies lean from the start, so your software keeps evolving in place instead of being declared obsolete every couple of years.

The full-stack map

"JavaScript developer" hides a split, and half-built projects live in the gap.

A real web application is three connected layers. Many "JavaScript developers" only do the first one, which is how businesses end up with lovely screens and nothing working behind them. Here is the whole picture, and the part Avaib makes sure never gets skipped.

In the browser Front end

The screens people see and use, built in React, Angular or Vue. This is the part most "JavaScript developers" do, and where a lot of projects stop.

โ†’
On the server The API and logic

The Node.js back end that handles the real work: business rules, authentication, payments, and talking to other systems. Front-end specialists often cannot own this.

โ†’
Underneath The data

The database and how information is stored, queried and kept safe. Get this wrong and the whole application is slow, fragile or insecure no matter how good the front end looks.

Avaib builds all three layers as one connected product, under one accountable team, so nothing is left half-finished.

Been burned by a front end with no working back end? We build the whole thing, properly wired together.

The concerns, answered

What worries people about a JavaScript project, and how we handle it.

These are the real concerns we hear before a JavaScript build or a codebase rescue starts. Here is exactly how Avaib takes each one off the table.

"We paid for a slick React site and now Google cannot even see half our pages."
A plain single-page app hands the search engine an empty page. We build with server-side and pre-rendered pages using Next.js or Nuxt, so your content is there for Google on the first request and you keep the traffic you should own.
"We hired a React developer, but half the job was the back end and the API, and it never got built."
"JavaScript developer" hides a front-end and back-end split. We staff your project as a full team, with senior people who own the Node back end, the database and the security, not just the screens, so you get a finished product.
"Every couple of years we are told our working software is now legacy and needs a rewrite."
We choose steady, well-supported foundations and keep dependencies lean, so your software keeps running and evolving instead of being declared obsolete on a schedule. We build to survive the next framework, not to sell you the next rebuild.
"It is basically a brochure site, so why does it need a whole framework just to load?"
It usually does not. We match the tool to the job rather than reaching for a heavy framework by reflex, so simple sites stay fast and light, and we only bring in React or Node where the complexity genuinely earns it.
"The build broke and nobody could tell me why, it was some tiny package buried five layers deep."
Loose JavaScript projects pull in huge, unaudited dependency trees. We keep the package list lean, audit it for security and stability, and pin what matters, so your build is predictable and you are not exposed by code nobody chose on purpose.
"A junior clearly built this, the code is a mess, and the agency has gone quiet since launch."
Your project is built by senior JavaScript specialists in clean, documented, standard code, under one accountable team that does not vanish after go-live. You own the code outright, so any capable team can pick it up, and we stay because the work keeps delivering.

How we work

From first conversation to JavaScript software that lasts.

Understand the software first, choose the right tool and agree a clear scope, build front and back together in tested slices, then launch and keep it current, so you always see progress and never face a needless rewrite.

01

Understand the software and who uses it

We start with what the application has to do, who uses it, and what it connects to, so the technology choice is made to fit your project rather than whatever framework we happen to prefer.

02

Choose the right tool, and agree the scope

You get a plain-English scope and an honest recommendation on the framework and rendering approach, so you know what will be built, in what order, and what it will cost before development begins.

03

Build front and back together, tested

Senior specialists build the front end, the Node back end and the data layer as one connected product, each slice covered by automated tests and checked by our QA department, so you see working software early.

04

Launch, support and keep it current

We help you go live, support it under a 30-day warranty and beyond, and keep dependencies patched and the software healthy, so it stays fast, secure and maintainable rather than drifting toward a rewrite.

Pricing

Who we help

JavaScript expertise for teams that need the whole product, not half of it.

If you are shipping a web product, losing traffic to a single-page app, stuck on ageing code or told you need a rewrite, here is the kind of team Avaib fits, and the problem we usually solve for each.

Founders shipping a web productYou need a real, full working application, not just a front end. We build the screens, the Node API, the data and the security as one connected product that reaches your users.
Marketing teams losing traffic to a SPAYour slick single-page app is invisible to Google. We rebuild it with SEO-safe server rendering so your content is found and the traffic comes back.
Businesses stuck on ageing JavaScriptThe codebase is messy, the original team is gone and every change is scary. We audit it, stabilise it and make it safe to build on again, without a needless rewrite.
Teams told they need a full rebuildYou have been quoted for a rewrite because the framework is "legacy". We give you an honest second read, and often a way to modernise what you have instead.
Companies that hired front-end, needed full-stackLast time the React work got done but the back end never did. This time senior people own the whole stack, so the product actually ships finished.
Leaders comparing JavaScript to other stacksNot sure JavaScript is even the right choice? We give you a clear, plain-English read on whether it fits your project, or whether another foundation suits it better.

Common questions

JavaScript development, answered.

What is JavaScript development?

JavaScript development is the building of software in JavaScript, the programming language that runs in every web browser and, through Node.js, on the server as well. It is what makes web pages interactive, and with Node it also powers the back end, so a single language can span both the screens people use and the logic and data behind them. Frameworks like React, Angular and Vue are used for front ends, and Node.js with tools like Express or Nest for the server side.

A JavaScript development company designs, builds, tests and maintains this software for you, from a single interactive front end to a complete full-stack web application, and often modernises or rescues an existing JavaScript codebase. Avaib has built software since 2004, across more than 600 projects, with senior full-stack specialists, so we can build new JavaScript software or make an existing one dependable.

What can Avaib build with JavaScript?

A full range of web software. On the front end we build fast, responsive interfaces in React, Angular and Vue. As full-stack, we build complete applications with a Node.js back end, a database and proper authentication, so you get a finished product rather than just the screens.

We also build SEO-safe server-rendered sites with Next.js and Nuxt, migrate loosely-typed code to TypeScript, optimise performance and bundle size for mobile, and rescue ageing or abandoned JavaScript codebases so they are safe to build on again.

Do you build the back end too, or only front-end JavaScript?

Both, and this is one of the most common gaps we are called in to fill. Many "JavaScript developers" only do the front end, so businesses end up with attractive screens and no working application behind them. We build the front end, the Node.js back end, the database and the security as one connected product.

That means the business logic, the authentication, the payments and the integrations are all handled properly, by senior people who own the whole stack, so what you get is a complete, finished piece of software, not a half-built one.

My React site is not showing up on Google. Can you fix that?

Yes. A plain single-page app renders its content in the browser, which means the search engine often receives a nearly empty page and cannot index your content properly, so you quietly lose traffic. We fix this by rebuilding or reworking the site with server-side rendering and pre-rendering, using Next.js or Nuxt.

With that in place, your pages arrive fully formed on the first request, so Google can see and rank them, while your visitors still get the fast, app-like experience. We also tidy up performance and mobile speed at the same time, since those affect ranking too.

We were told our JavaScript software is "legacy" and needs a full rewrite. Is that true?

Often it is not. JavaScript frameworks move quickly, so working software gets labelled "legacy" far sooner than it actually needs replacing, and a full rewrite is an easy thing to sell. We start by giving you an honest, independent read on the real state of your codebase.

In many cases we can stabilise it, update the parts that genuinely need it, harden the dependencies and modernise it in place, on a plan sized to your budget, without the cost and risk of starting from scratch. A rewrite is a last resort, not our opening offer.

How much does JavaScript development cost?

It depends on the scope, since a single-page front end is very different from a full-stack application, an SEO-safe rebuild or a large codebase rescue. That is why we scope the work clearly up front and give you a fixed, plain-English quote before any development starts, so there are no open-ended surprises.

Our senior JavaScript engineers work at a cost-effective rate of around USD 25 per hour, the same capability Australian, US, Canadian and Middle-East firms charge a fortune for, and AI-accelerated delivery helps get you there faster. After a short conversation we will send you a free, no-obligation written estimate with a clear scope.

Will we own the code, or be locked in?

You own everything. We hand you the full code, the data and the documentation in standard, well-supported JavaScript, so any capable JavaScript team can run and extend it. There is no lock-in to us and no dependence on a single developer.

We deliberately avoid bespoke, undocumented structures that only we can maintain. You stay with Avaib because the work keeps delivering value, not because you are trapped.
