Alan at Kimchi helped me launch the first ebook on my website shop, and created a photography portfolio website for my latest business venture. Both times, Alan maintained communication and created a product I was really happy with.

I had the privilege today of hosting a podcast with Alan Oakden, and getting a glimpse into his genius mind. Alan is the brains behind Yodha Health and leads our R&D projects at LATUS, which is quickly becoming a vital part of our business, and a key differentiator against the rest of the dinosaur occupational health industry.

A pleasure to work with! Not only was time taken to revamp the gulp files on the WaterAid project to ensure the front end development experience was easier, time was also dedicated to helping peers and answering any questions.

Frequently asked questions
Feel free to use the contact form if any of your questions aren't answered below.
Do you do Wordpress sites?
Of course! We can do new sites or help maintain existing ones. If you are looking for an enterprise site that can scale then we'd advise Drupal - and we can help with that too!
What specialisms / certifications do you have?
We are Acquia certified front-end specialists, meaning that we are certified by the largest Drupal cloud-platform for front-end development. We're also very well versed with React, a modern web technology that is behind a lot of the web you see today - especially if you have 'logged in' to services and used a dashboard / account management feature. React is also transferable to 'React Native' whereby one set of code can be used to make a mobile app ready for both the Play Store and App Store.
Do you provide design and UI / UX work
We are familiar with tools such as Adobe XD, Figma and UIzard. If you wish for your application to be visually designed before a line of code is written, then we are happy to do so.
Are you available for open-ended contract work?
Yes, we're able to supplement your existing team by providing contractors to work with (primarily React, React Native, Gatsby and Drupal front end work), use the contact form to let us know your requirements and we'll get back to you ASAP.
What is your working process like?
It depends on the project, but usually we like to have a 30m to 1hr phone or video call to meet you and get your requirements. From there, we'll provide a quote and (if singed off) a scope of work that captures all your requirements and means we'll miss nothing during build time. Finally, we'll provide full design mock ups of your final product before commencing with coding.
Should I seek a larger, more established agency for my project?
From previous experience in the industry, very often when you work with a large agency in reality you are only receiving direct attention from two or three people within the business. While large agencies do come with some reputation and experience, the reality is they will only dedicate a few staff on your project, all of whom will also be dividing their time across other clients, often diverting their attention from your project and for a much higher price. A freelancer / smaller agency will dedicate more time solely to your project, while providing more availability for one to one chats.
Do you do mobile apps?
Absolutely, you can see some examples further up this page.
What if I want to make changes to the final product?
The scope of work at the start of a project is key to success. We'll ask a series of questions that will get you thinking in detail about what you want to achieve. We take our time at the starting phase to make sure all requirements are captured to avoid any missed functionality later down the line. Nevertheless, lessons are learned and requirements change as projects are done, we use 'Agile' methodology on our projects, regularly delivering new functionality for testing at the earliest possible stage, to ensure the client can review work as early as possible and any amendments or changes are captured as soon as possible.
Do you do payment upfront or on completion?
It depends on requirements. If you are after developers to supplement your existing team or to be guided in their day to day tasks by one of your in-house staff we will invoice the hours on a weekly basis. For small projects we'll quote and invoice on completion. For larger projects we'll detail 'phases' and invoice at the end of each phase, we may ask for an upfront payment to secure our time and enable us to plan resource.
Reach out to us, projects of any size.
It doesn’t matter what size your business is, or how demanding your requirements are, we're keen to hear from you!
