PWA Development in Derby
Progressive web apps for Derby businesses that want app-like behaviour without the app stores. Installs to the home screen from a link, keeps working when the signal drops, and ships updates the moment you deploy rather than waiting on a review queue.
Why this comes up
The problem
Publishing to two app stores means two builds, two review processes and a cut of every transaction. For most business apps that overhead buys nothing the web could not already do.
What you get

Working in Derby
East Midlands
Derby is an engineering city — aerospace, rail and automotive supply chains — so the work here skews toward integration with existing plant systems, quality and compliance workflows, and reporting that has to stand up to audit.
Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit.

PWA Development in Derby — common questions
- Is a PWA as good as a native app?
- For most business use, close enough that the difference does not justify two native builds. Native still wins for heavy graphics, deep hardware access and background processing. If your app is forms, lists, scanning and sync, a PWA does the job.
- Does it work properly on iPhones?
- Yes, with caveats worth knowing before you commit. Apple supports installation and offline use, but its push notification and storage behaviour lags Android. If notifications are central to your product, that is a real constraint to weigh rather than discover later.
- How does offline actually work?
- Content and data are cached on the device and changes queue until the connection returns. What syncs, and what happens when two people edit the same record offline, are design decisions we agree with you rather than defaults.
- Can we put it in the app stores as well?
- Yes — a PWA can be wrapped and submitted. It is worth doing when customers genuinely search the stores for you, and not worth it when they arrive from your website.
- Do you work with businesses across Derbyshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East Midlands, including Derby and the surrounding Derbyshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Derby businesses do you usually work with?
- Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit. Beyond that we work across Advanced Manufacturing, Aerospace, Rail Engineering, Automotive and Logistics.
- Do you cover the areas around Derby?
- Yes — we work throughout East Midlands, including Nottingham, Leicester, Loughborough, Birmingham. Derby is an urban area of roughly 260,000+, and we take on work across the wider Derbyshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
