No-code is right for validation, internal tools and under 1,000 users — we say that as a custom-development agency. It stops at complex permissions, performance, deep integrations and GDPR data-location needs. The upside: a working no-code app is the cheapest spec for a rebuild.

Running everything on two clouds doubles cost and halves velocity. The realistic play: Docker + Postgres + S3-compatible storage keep ~90% of your stack portable, business logic stays out of proprietary glue, and infrastructure as code makes the exit real instead of theoretical.

The best MVP tech stack in 2026 is boring: TypeScript/Next.js or Python/Django, PostgreSQL, Docker, one VM or a PaaS. After 30+ MVPs our rules are simple — one language, no microservices, nothing you can't debug at 2am. Here's every layer and the reasoning.

Incremental modernization of a typical SME system costs €40,000–€150,000 spread over 6-18 months. Full rewrites cost 2-4x that and fail more often. Here's how to estimate your case — and the situations where doing nothing is correct.

You don't need to rebuild your product to add AI. An API layer beside your existing stack, one high-value workflow, and evaluation before rollout — that's the pattern. Most first integrations ship in 4-6 weeks. Here's the playbook.

A 2025 CNCF survey shows 42% of teams regret microservices. Amazon Prime Video cut costs 90% by going back to a monolith. Here's why we build modular monoliths — and how.

Standard advice says pay down all technical debt. We disagree. After dozens of MVPs, here's our taxonomy: debt you keep, debt you must fix, and debt that doesn't matter.

After years of building on Firebase, we switched to PostgreSQL. Here's why typed schemas, static analysis, and real relational data won — and why we're never looking back.
