About me
I am Lukasz Pudlo, a web developer in Edinburgh. I build websites and web applications for small businesses and organisations, and I look after them afterwards.
Most of the work is new builds, taking payments, connecting systems together, and fixing sites that already exist. A lot of it involves money and data: payments through Stripe, and moving information between systems that were never designed to talk to each other.
I build things that the people who own them can run without calling me every week. That usually means fewer moving parts rather than more, and tools that will still make sense in five years. This site is built the same way.
I work remotely with clients across the UK, and meet in person around Edinburgh when it helps.
How I work
-
Send me a brief
A few lines on what the site has to do and who it is for is enough. I reply the next working day with questions or a first estimate.
-
Get a fixed quote
Once I understand the job I send a quote with a price and a date. If the job changes along the way, the quote changes with it, in writing, before any extra work is done.
-
Build, handover, support
You see the site as it is built and can use it before it goes live. At the end you get the keys, the documentation and a control panel for everyday changes. Afterwards I stay on hand for fixes, updates and a monthly arrangement if you want one.
- Tested before it goes live
- Everything is covered by tests and checked before it goes live, so problems turn up on my machine and not on yours.
- Built for the awkward cases
- I handle the failure paths, not just the happy path, so the site holds up under real use.
- Documented and maintainable
- Readable code and clear notes, so the project can be picked up and changed later without guesswork.
- Deployed and looked after
- Proper hosting with backups, logging and certificates, so what goes live keeps running.
What every build includes
- Responsive design
- Every page reads well on phones, tablets and desktops.
- Web control panel
- A private admin area so you can update content, prices and pages yourself.
- SSL certificates
- HTTPS with a valid certificate on every site, renewed automatically.
- SEO friendly
- Clean markup, sensible titles and descriptions, and fast server-rendered pages that search engines can read.
- Website support
- Updates and fixes after launch, and a real person who answers.
I build with Django and PostgreSQL, host on Hetzner, and take payments through Stripe.
