Don't just take our word for it. Take a look at the <BlogLink>[work we've done on other projects](/#case-studies "Devforia.com Case Studies")</BlogLink>. 

### Company Values
We believe our core values make up the __SOUL__ of the company and approach all of our issues with the soul in mind.

#### Simplicity
We approach all issues with the idea of simplicity in mind. We work with those who don't have a strong understanding of technology, so we believe in approaching *all* matters as if we're asking our own grandmothers to do it.

#### Openness
We believe openness and transparency are vital to our success. When issues occur, we must provide an environment where our team can be open to discuss this and correct it. When new teammates come on board, we believe we must be open to hearing their ideas, just as much as a tenured veteran. Being open encourages good communication, therefore it is one of our core values that we believe will set us apart from the others.

#### Understanding
When things do go wrong, it's important to provide an understanding environment for those involved. We understand that mistakes happen, so treating these situations as opportunities for growth helps us to improve processess.

#### Love
We can't have a soul without any love. Love for the things we do, and the people we surround ourselves with. This means allowing our people to put the people they love first - a strong work-life balance is important to us to help encourage putting that same love back into the work we do.

## How does the process work?
We take an Agile approach to our projects. For custom software projects, we break down our work into 2 week sprints to continuously collect feedback. We handle the entire software development lifecycle for our projects. Here's what you can expect when purchasing services with us:

1. __Determine project requirements__: During this phase, we will have a quick meeting (usually around 30 minutes) to discuss your project's requirements. We will collect the information from this and come back with any further questions we may have. Once we're all on the same page, we will move to the next phase of the development cycle.
2. __Wireframe__: We will create a basic wireframe outlining where the content will go. We will collect your feedback to ensure you're satisifed with the layout and then proceed to the next phase.
3. __Design/mockup__: We will create an actual design from the wireframes created in the previous step. This will have the actual colors and will make sure the aesthetic matches the idea in your head. Once you're satisifed with the design, we'll move to the next phase of the development lifecycle.
4. __Development__: We begin the actual development of the components once we have a full understanding of the feature and a buyoff on the look & feel.
5. __Test__: We run our components through automatic testing tools. After that, we test... and test... and test it again.
6. __Deploy__: We deploy the application (unless you prefer to deploy to your own environment) and maintain the server & infrastructure for you.

We continue to repeat these 6 phases for each milestone in our sprint. For example, you may ask us for help creating a SaaS application that helps construction facilities maintain teams, assets, and tests that they need to run. You hire us to create this idea from scratch for you. We come up with a gameplan of features you need and break up the work into these sprints. 

For this application, a sprint could be the login system to access the application. We will set the sprint's milestone to be a completed login system, and after 2 weeks, we will give an update on the sprint's progress and update you with the work we'll be doing for the next two week sprint. 

## How much does it cost?
Each project we tackle varies in size and scope so we can't provide an exact answer to this. For those looking for a website, a standard 5 page JAMStack with a bespoke (aka custom made) design will cost roughly __$1,500__ depending on the complexity. Reach out today to see how we can help!

## How do I purchase your services?
We're working on some purchasing pages and options to help new business owners, but in the meantime you can <BlogLink>[contact us](/#contact)</BlogLink> to get started on your project!

## __What exactly *is* a Headless CMS anyways?__

Well... let's first talk about what a traditional CMS is. You may have heard of one called <span className="text-link opacity-80 hover:opacity-100">[WordPress](https://wordpress.com/)</span>.
It works well for those who need a website immediately and don't have the skills or money to do it. This might be you right now.

In fact, in 2021, there are over **455 million** websites that use WordPress. It powers more than **40%** of the web. It works great for a lot of people!

<Fade duration="2">
...but it does have its drawbacks. 
</Fade>

For non-developers, you run into the choice of purchasing a template that's not unique to your business or hiring a developer to offer the advanced customizations you look for as you start to grow. This can lead to limitations due to the traditional CMS approach of handling both the content & backend, and restricting developers to their theming engine.

You add technical limitations by having a traditional CMS manage everything for you. Traditional CMS' will add bloat to your webpage which **will** impact your
website's performance. Amazon found that every **100ms** of latency cost them **1%** in sales. Google found
an extra **.5** seconds in search page generation time dropped traffic by **20%**.

## __What's the catch to using Headless CMS?__

You'll need development experience (or know someone who does 👋) to get started.
It's also going to take a little longer to get set up than an instanteous site builder. You still have the option to use premade themes but
it's more complicated than Traditional CMS solutions to set up. Think of it this way - you use the Headless CMS to store your content on the cloud.
How you grab that content is up to you. 

<span class="text-2xl text-secondary font-serif-medium">This is where our React developers come into play.</span>

We offer <BlogLink>[bespoke web development services](https://www.devforia.com/#services)</BlogLink>, including a <BlogLink>[branding kit](https://www.devforia.com/coming-soon)</BlogLink>
for new businesses looking to launch or future proof their website. We aim to build long term relationships with you and offer a monthly subscription service for a custom-built website with unlimited edits &amp; revisions.
