David Rosthorn · Web & Mobile Design and Development
I design and develop websites, web applications and mobile apps for businesses of every size, from small local firms getting online for the first time to large organisations with complex, business-critical requirements.
I've been designing and building for the web for over twenty years: long enough to remember when Windows 3.1 was cutting edge.
In that time I've worked on everything from one-page sites for local businesses to large, complex platforms for big organisations with demanding requirements, and I build mobile apps for iOS and Android too.
That range matters. Small projects taught me to be practical and careful with a budget. Large ones taught me rigour, structure and how to keep many stakeholders happy. Every client gets both.
You work directly with me from the first conversation to launch and beyond. No account managers, no hand-offs. Where a project needs it, I bring in trusted specialists, so you get agency capability with a single, experienced point of contact.

Whether you need a straightforward website, a mobile app or a bespoke web application, I handle the whole job, so there's one person accountable from start to finish.
Clean, considered interfaces that reflect your brand and make it easy for visitors to do what they came to do.
Fast, standards-based front and back ends, hand-built and maintainable rather than bolted together.
iOS and Android apps that feel at home on the device, from customer-facing products to internal tools.
Online shops that are simple to run day to day, from a handful of products to large catalogues.
Editing tools your team will actually enjoy using, so updating the site never needs a developer.
Bespoke applications, portals and integrations with the CRMs, payment providers and APIs you rely on.
Quick-loading, accessible, search-friendly sites, measured and tuned rather than guessed at.
Ongoing care after launch: updates, security, backups, monitoring and a person to call when you need one.
Inherited a site or app that's slow, fragile or hard to change? I'll audit it and plan a sensible way forward.
Five clear stages. Open each folder to see what's involved.
We start with your business, not the technology: goals, audience, constraints and what success looks like.
Twenty years of projects of every shape and size means I can pitch the approach to suit you. A small business doesn't need enterprise process, and a large organisation can't afford shortcuts.
