React, Next.js and MERN stack development

Fast, SEO-friendly Next.js websites and full-stack JavaScript web apps on React, Node.js and MongoDB or PostgreSQL.

What does our React, Next.js & MERN Development service include?

Our React and Next.js development service builds marketing sites, headless CMS websites and full-stack web applications with React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, Express and MongoDB (the MERN stack) or PostgreSQL, deployed on Vercel or AWS.

Next.js combines React with server rendering and static generation, which makes it a strong choice when you need app-like features and search-friendly pages in the same project.

We build Next.js marketing sites with headless CMSs, MERN-stack web apps with real-time features, and component libraries your in-house team can extend. Recent Next.js work includes the Trent Taxi booking website and the Embedify marketing site.

FAQ

React, Next.js & MERN questions

Have a different question?

Ask us anything about your project. A founder replies personally.

Ask a question

Is Next.js good for SEO?

Yes. Next.js can render pages on the server or at build time, so search engines and AI crawlers receive complete HTML instead of an empty page. It also gives fine control over metadata, structured data, images and performance, which is why we use it for sites that combine marketing content with app features.

What is the MERN stack, and when should I use it?

MERN stands for MongoDB, Express, React and Node.js: one JavaScript stack from the database to the interface. It suits apps with flexible, document-shaped data and teams that want one language everywhere. For highly relational data such as orders, invoices or bookings, we often pair React and Node.js with PostgreSQL instead.

How much does a React or Next.js project cost?

The price depends on the number of pages or screens, the data model and APIs, authentication and roles, whether a headless CMS is needed, integrations and the testing required. A Next.js marketing site is a smaller project than a full web application. We scope it with you and quote a fixed price per phase.

Can you work with our in-house developers?

Yes. We work in your repository, follow your conventions, branching, code review and CI process, and join your standups or Slack if that helps. Many teams use us to add capacity for a feature or a deadline, with clear pull requests so your developers can review and own the code.

Which headless CMS do you recommend?

It depends on who edits content and how structured it is. Sanity is flexible for custom content models, Contentful suits larger teams with strict workflows, Strapi can be self-hosted, and WordPress or Webflow can also act as a headless CMS. We recommend one after looking at your editors and your content.

Where do you deploy React and Next.js apps?

Usually Vercel for Next.js front ends and AWS for APIs, databases and background jobs, or your existing infrastructure if you have one. We set up preview deployments for every change, environment variables, monitoring and rollbacks, all in accounts you own, so releases are routine rather than risky.
