01 / CAPABILITIES

What we can build

APIs and business logic

REST, events, calculations, operation states and interfaces for applications.

Data and integrations

Storage models, migrations, search and external service connections.

Service reliability

Authorisation, retries, queues, logging and observability.

02 / DELIVERABLES

What your team receives

Map product operations, user roles and external dependencies. Use them to design APIs and data models that support complete workflows.

Backend development — product architecture and scope
  1. Data model

    Entities, relationships, constraints and update rules.

  2. Server application

    APIs, background jobs and administrative operations.

  3. Documentation and tests

    API contracts, failure scenarios and integration checks.

  4. Release environment

    Configuration, migrations and deployment instructions.

03 / OUR EXPERIENCE

Projects by our team

View all case studies

Projects from our portfolio. Each case study describes its scope, technologies and implemented features.

04 / ENGINEERING

What we consider before development

Repeated operations

Prevent duplicates when requests or events are retried.

Data access

Separate user, service and administrator permissions.

Predictable migrations

Plan version compatibility, backups and rollback procedures.

05 / COST AND TIMELINE

An estimate tailored to your project

We agree on the first release and acceptance criteria, then estimate development, integrations and testing by stage.

First release

Product operations, background jobs and permissions.

Logic and integrations

Data migration, external APIs and event handling.

Testing and launch

Failure scenarios, workload and deployment requirements.

06 / PROCESS

From discussion to a working product

  1. Understand the scope

    Review the product, users and constraints. Agree on priorities.

  2. Design the solution

    Define workflows, architecture and acceptance criteria.

  3. Build and validate

    Share progress and test features and integrations.

  4. Release and hand over

    Prepare the release, deliver source code and agree on further support.

What our clients say

All reviews
In the end, we received a complete, working product. The team is responsible, stays in touch and is committed to the outcome. I can recommend them for complex development projects.

Questions and answers

What does backend development at FreeBlock include?

Architecture design, server-side business logic, database work, APIs, integrations with external services, deployment and monitoring. We can build a backend from scratch or take over support of an existing one.

Which stack do you use on the backend?

We use Node.js, NestJS, TypeScript, Python and other tools suited to the architecture. Storage and caching can use PostgreSQL, MySQL and Redis; deployments use Docker and Kubernetes where appropriate.

How do you design and document APIs?

We build REST or GraphQL APIs with versioning, JWT or OAuth authorization and auto-generated OpenAPI documentation, so frontend and third-party teams can integrate without endless calls.

Will your backend handle traffic growth?

Yes — we plan for scale from the start: horizontal scaling of services, caching, and queues for heavy operations. Before launch we run load tests on scenarios close to real production traffic.

How do you estimate the timeline and budget for the server side?

The main factors are business logic, API complexity, data models, integrations and reliability requirements. We assess the existing code and infrastructure, then estimate development, migration and testing by stage.

What does backend support after release include?

Monitoring and alerting, incident investigation, database query optimization, security updates and evolving the API for new product features.
