Custom web applications

Software shaped around the problem.

Sidelobe designs and builds focused web applications for workflows that do not fit comfortably inside off-the-shelf software. Start with the problem, validate the interaction early and ship the smallest version that genuinely helps.

No specification required · Focused scope · Production-minded from day one

Direct collaboration Short feedback loops Maintainable by design

Small surface. Real software.

The objective is not to maximise feature count. It is to understand the workflow well enough to build the smallest useful product, put it in front of real users and keep the implementation understandable as it grows.

01

Understand the workflow

Map what happens today, who touches it, where the friction lives and what a genuinely useful outcome looks like.

02

Build the real thing

Work in short feedback loops around the actual use case instead of spending months specifying features before anyone can use them.

03

Operate it properly

Treat deployment, reliability, security and maintainability as part of the product rather than work left for later.

A specific problem deserves a specific surface.

01 Existing software covers most of the job, but the missing part causes most of the friction.
02 The workflow is valuable because it is specific to how the team operates.
03 A focused product would remove several disconnected workarounds.
04 The tool needs to be production software, not a throwaway demo.

Start with the problem

You don't need a specification.

Tell us what happens today, who is involved and where it becomes painful. A few sentences are enough to start a useful conversation.
