Node.js

Node.js development company

Node.js is our choice when an app needs to react in real time: chat, live order tracking, notifications and dashboards that update as data arrives. We build Node.js back ends and APIs with clear structure, logging and documentation, so they're easy to run and easy to hand over.

Who it's for

When Node.js is the right back end

  • Mobile and web apps that need a fast API with real-time features.
  • Teams that want one language, JavaScript or TypeScript, across front end and back end.
  • Businesses connecting several systems that need a reliable layer in the middle.

For apps that are mainly forms, records and reports, Laravel may be the simpler choice. We'll tell you which fits.

What we build

Node.js work we take on

REST and GraphQL APIs

Built with Express for small, focused services or NestJS when a larger team needs strict structure.

Real-time features

WebSockets for chat, presence, live location and live order status.

Background jobs and queues

Emails, reports, imports and payment webhooks handled reliably outside the main request.

Integrations

Connections between your app, payment gateways, maps, SMS and third-party APIs.

Security basics, every time

Input validation, rate limiting, token authentication, and secrets kept out of the code repository.

Building the app as well?

We build the Android and iOS apps that talk to these APIs too.

Hosting

Real-time needs the right hosting

Live features keep connections open, which cheap shared hosting can't do well. We size the server, set up monitoring and logging, and plan how it scales before we quote, so there are no surprises after launch.

Project considerations

What affects time and cost

  • Number of endpoints and how complex the business rules behind them are.
  • Real-time scope. Chat and live tracking take more work than simple notifications.
  • Third-party APIs. Each one needs setup, error handling and testing.

FAQ

Node.js questions

Express or NestJS?

Express for small, focused services; NestJS when a larger team needs strict structure and conventions.

Can you build the API for our mobile app?

Yes, and we document every endpoint so the app team can work in parallel.

Can you take over an existing Node.js project?

Yes. We review the code and dependencies first and give you a plain list of risks before changing anything.

Need a Node.js back end?

Tell us what your app needs to do in real time. We'll suggest an architecture and a first release.
