In short

A React front end built to last, so a new feature stops breaking an old one.

What's included

  • Component library
  • State and data
  • API integration
  • Automated tests
  • Accessibility
  • Speed budget

Answers you'll have before the build

  • Which state lives on the server, and which in the browser?
  • Plain React, or a framework on top of it?
  • Refactor the current code, or replace it screen by screen?

Where it stops

Frontend Development

Builds the interface on whichever stack your team already runs.

React Development

Builds it in React, with the architecture, state and tests set up to last.

Not included

  • Backend services and databases, unless scoped
  • Speed or uptime beyond the agreed criteria

A React codebase your team can keep building on

What you hold at the end, from the written scope to the release.

Discuss your product
  • A flat white ceramic plan tablet carved with a tree of rounded nodes joined by steel rods, one node in graphite, a row of raised check tabs along its edge.

    Technical scope and acceptance criteria

    Screens, components, data sources and the test each feature must pass, agreed first.

  • A shallow ceramic tray divided by a steel grid, holding ceramic buttons, a card, an input field and a toggle, one graphite piece lifted above its slot.

    Component library and screens

    Reusable, typed components and every screen in scope, with each state the design defines.

  • An upright ceramic browser window joined by a steel pipe to a small ceramic server box, a ceramic drawer and a graphite valve wheel on the pipe.

    Data and integrations

    API calls, caching, validation and error handling, plus the third-party services in scope.

  • A small ceramic case with its lid half open over three ceramic plates carved with angle brackets, a steel key with a graphite head in front.

    Tests, release and handoff

    Automated tests, a deployment pipeline, release notes and a map of who owns what next.

You receive

  • Source code in your repository
  • Component docs and a runbook
  • A walkthrough with your engineers

A front end that stays easy to change.

As a React development agency we write down the split of work, the order of the build and the test for each step before the first component. That is what keeps a React codebase maintainable after we leave.

  • Foundation

    Repository, TypeScript, linting, design tokens and the component library set up; every change built and tested automatically. Needs Approved designs for the first screens, and access to your repository or a new one.

    Done when A first screen built from library components passes the pipeline and runs in a preview environment.

  • Screen by screen

    Each screen or workflow built end to end — components, state and API calls — and shown working before the next one starts. Needs A product owner who reviews each slice within the agreed window.

    Done when The slice passes its acceptance criteria with real API data, in every state the design defines.

  • Data and integrations

    Server data cached and kept in sync, forms validated, and sign-in, payment and analytics services connected. Needs API documentation, a staging backend and sandbox keys for each service.

    Done when A slow or failed call shows a clear state, retries where that is safe, and is logged.

  • Quality and release

    Accessibility, speed and security checked against the criteria; error monitoring switched on; a staged release with a way back. Needs Test users for each role, and one person who approves go-live.

    Done when Keyboard and screen-reader checks pass, key screens meet the speed budget, and the previous build can be restored.

  • Handoff

    Code, component docs, test reports and every access handed to your engineers, with a walkthrough. Needs Your repository, hosting and monitoring accounts, or ones we transfer to you.

    Done when Your engineers add a component and ship a change without us.

Who owns what

ANODA builds

  • Component architecture, design tokens and the shared library
  • Screens, routing and every loading, empty and error state
  • State management and the API layer, typed end to end
  • Unit, integration and end-to-end tests, and the CI pipeline
  • Accessibility, speed budgets and error monitoring in the browser

Your team owns

  • The backend and its API, unless we are scoped to build it
  • Hosting, domain and third-party accounts, with their fees
  • Product decisions and sign-off on each slice
  • The go-live call
  • Running the code after handoff, unless support is scoped

Platforms and tools provide

  • Your host or CDN — builds, delivery and uptime
  • Sign-in, payment and analytics services — their limits and outages
  • Open-source libraries — their updates and licences

When React is the right call

React earns its weight on interfaces full of state and interaction. Four signs it fits now.

  • The interface is an app, not a page

    People filter, edit, drag and save, and screens change with data while they work.

  • Your team already works in React

    Hiring, code review and future features stay on one stack.

  • The current front end fights every change

    A small feature breaks something unrelated, and nobody wants to touch the state logic.

  • There is an API to talk to

    A backend exists, or a team is building it alongside.

Let's plan your React front end

Tell us what the interface has to do and where the code stands today. We will come back with an architecture plan and a realistic next step.

Scope, access and who does what

The screens in scope, the stack, the acceptance criteria and the review rhythm are agreed before the build.

Scope
Custom fixed or phased, set in the proposal
Timeline
Agreed after scope, access, dependencies and acceptance criteria
  1. You provide

    The designs
    Approved screens, or where the design stands and who is finishing it.
    The codebase
    Your repository and current stack, or a decision to start fresh.
    The API
    Its documentation, a staging backend, and who can change it.
    A product owner
    One person who answers questions and accepts each slice.
  2. Who does what

    ANODA
    Plans the architecture, builds and tests the front end, releases it and hands it over.
    Your team
    Makes the product calls, runs the backend, reviews each slice and decides when to go live.
    Your providers
    Host the build and run the sign-in, payment and analytics services it calls.
  3. Boundaries

    Outside React development
    Designing the product from scratch, backend services and databases unless scoped, native mobile apps, content and third-party fees.
    After release
    Fixes, new features and support can continue with us on a separate scope, or your engineers take over. The code stays yours either way.

What should your React app let people do?

Tell us about the screens, the API behind them, and whether you are starting fresh or working in an existing codebase.

    React Development: common questions

    How can we tell whether a React development agency can really engineer a front end?

    Ask to see code or a live app the team built, not only designs — a design portfolio says nothing about how a front end is engineered. Ask where they keep server data versus local state, how they split components, what they test automatically and how a failed API call reaches the user. Ask for a sample of acceptance criteria and a past handoff document. Our published case studies are mostly design work, so we don’t offer them here as React engineering; you judge us instead on the component plan and a first slice running against your API, both before you commit further.

    What do your React development services include?

    A technical scope with acceptance criteria; the component architecture, design tokens and a shared library; every screen in scope with its loading, empty and error states; routing, state management and a typed API layer; the third-party services in scope; unit, integration and end-to-end tests with a deployment pipeline; accessibility, speed and security checks; error monitoring; and a staged release followed by the handoff. Libraries are chosen in the scope to suit your team, not fixed in advance.

    React, Next.js or React Native — which one do we need?

    React Native builds iOS and Android apps; this page is about interfaces that run in the browser. Plain React suits apps behind a sign-in, such as dashboards, admin tools and editors, where search engines never look. Next.js adds server rendering and routing on top of React, which matters when public pages must load fast and rank. A content site with a handful of widgets rarely needs React at all; Astro serves it as plain HTML. We settle this in the scope, before any code.

    Can you take over or refactor an existing React codebase?

    Yes. We start with a short review: dependencies and how out of date they are, where state lives, how components are shared, what is tested and what breaks most often. Then we agree whether to refactor in place or replace the worst parts screen by screen while the app keeps running. We avoid a full rewrite unless the review shows it is cheaper, and each step ships behind the same acceptance criteria as new work.

    Do you build the backend and API as well?

    When it is scoped, yes. A React engagement assumes a backend exists or is being built by your team, and we agree the API contract with them. If you need the server, database, roles and hosting built too, that is Web App Development, and the front end is one part of it. If the product is not designed yet, Web App Design or Product Discovery comes first.

    What do you need from us before the build starts?

    Approved designs for at least the first screens, access to your repository or a decision to start a new one, API documentation with a staging backend, sandbox keys for any payment, sign-in or analytics service, and one product owner who can accept each slice. If the design or the API is still moving, the foundation and component library can start while they settle.

    How do you handle accessibility, performance and security?

    As written acceptance criteria agreed before the build. Typical ones: keyboard and screen-reader use on key flows, contrast and focus states, a size and speed budget for key screens, no secrets in the browser bundle, dependencies scanned in the pipeline, and errors reported to a monitoring tool with a named owner. Each release is checked against them, and the results form part of your test evidence.

    What does our team inherit at handoff, and can you keep working with us?

    The source code in your repository, the build running on your hosting, documentation of the components and data layer, test reports, release notes, a runbook for deploys, and a map of who owns what after release. Your engineers can take over from there. Or fixes, new features, usability testing, a UX Audit or design work can continue with us, each on its own scope.

    What drives the scope, timeline and price of a React project?

    How many screens and workflows are in scope, how much state they share, how complete and stable the API is, how many third-party services connect, whether an existing codebase has to be reviewed first, the quality criteria you need, and how ready the design is. We set a custom scope and estimate in the proposal, fixed or phased, and agree the timeline once scope, access, dependencies and acceptance criteria are clear.

    What is not included unless it is scoped separately?

    Designing the product from scratch, backend services and databases, native mobile apps, content, and the fees and account actions of your hosting and other providers, which stay in your name. User numbers and revenue are outside what code can promise; we answer for security, speed and uptime only as the scope defines them.
