Services

Digital solutions for real business needs.

Websites & E-commerce

Professional business websites, landing pages, online stores, and product catalogues.

Customers can't find you, or can't trust what they find. A clear, fast website puts your business in front of people and makes it easy for them to buy or get in touch.

  • Business and portfolio websites
  • Landing pages for campaigns and launches
  • Online stores and product catalogues
  • Mobile-friendly, fast-loading pages

Web Applications

Dashboards, booking systems, customer portals, business tools, and custom web applications.

Your team is stuck with spreadsheets, WhatsApp threads and manual follow-ups. A purpose-built tool replaces the busywork with one place where the work happens.

  • Admin dashboards and internal tools
  • Booking and enquiry workflows
  • Customer portals with accounts
  • Installable web apps (PWA)

Backend & API Development

REST APIs, database design, third-party integrations, authentication, and backend functionality.

Your product needs reliable logic behind the screen — storing data safely, connecting to other services, and keeping users' accounts secure.

  • REST APIs and database design
  • Authentication and user accounts
  • Third-party integrations (e.g. maps, media storage, WhatsApp)
  • Improving or extending an existing backend

Mobile Applications

Mobile apps built with React Native and Expo, connected to a backend that serves your users.

Your customers live on their phones. A mobile app gives them a focused way to use your service, backed by the same data as your website.

  • React Native (Expo) apps with TypeScript
  • Integration with a backend or API
  • Early-stage products and MVPs

A growing area of my work — Horent's React Native app is currently in testing.

Solutions by industry

Technology tailored to the way your business works.

    Help guests find you, see what you offer and book with less back-and-forth.
