CURRENT DEVELOPMENT METHODOLOGY

‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​‍‌​‌​‌‌‍‍‌​‍‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‍ Pure Code.
Zero Compromise.

Our current development standard is pure custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. No frameworks. No third-party build chains. No dependencies that break six months after launch. Just deliberate, precision-crafted code that does exactly what it's supposed to do — and nothing else.

THE FRAMEWORK PROBLEM

Modern Web Dev Ships 500KB of JavaScript
to Display Three Paragraphs.

The average website in 2025 loads over 2MB of JavaScript before your content renders. React, Vue, Angular, Next.js — these are powerful tools for the right problems. But they're not the right tool for a business website that needs to be fast, maintainable, and owned outright by the person who paid for it.

Frameworks come with update cycles, breaking changes, vulnerability chains, and developer lock-in. We've watched too many clients come to us with sites that can't be maintained because the original developer built them on a framework version that's now three major releases behind. That's not a website. That's a liability.

THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND IT

We Learned the Fundamentals.
We Never Stopped Using Them.

Mike has been writing code since 1982 — starting on a Commodore 64, long before the web existed. That foundation matters. When you understand what a browser actually does with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript at a mechanical level, you stop reaching for abstractions to paper over things you don't fully understand. You write exactly what you mean.

"Our current development methodology is pure custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. No framework overhead, no dependency chains, no lock-in. Code that a developer — any developer — can open and understand the day after we ship it."

This doesn't mean low-tech. Our sites ship with canvas-based animations, IntersectionObserver-gated performance guards, custom scroll behaviors, dynamic component loading, and Cloudflare Workers serving the whole thing at the edge. The methodology is pure. The execution is sophisticated. Those aren't contradictions.

WHAT PURE CODE DELIVERS

Six Reasons Pure HTML/CSS/JS
Is the Right Call

Not a trend. Not a constraint. A deliberate choice made by someone who has built on everything else.

01

Zero Dependency Risk

No npm audit. No breaking changes when a maintainer abandons their package. No supply-chain vulnerabilities in your node_modules. Pure HTML, CSS, and JavaScript has no dependencies — because it is the dependency everything else is built on.

02

Absolute Page Speed

When there's nothing to parse, compile, or hydrate, pages load in milliseconds. Every JavaScript file we ship is intentional. Every CSS rule earns its bytes. Core Web Vitals scores that don't require optimization — because they were never bloated to begin with.

03

Fully Maintainable Code

Any competent developer can open our files and understand them immediately. No proprietary build system, no JSX, no TypeScript configuration, no webpack config that nobody on the team understands anymore. Clean, readable code that you own forever.

04

Browser-Native APIs

IntersectionObserver for performance-gated animations. ResizeObserver for responsive behavior. Web Animations API for fluid motion. The Fetch API for dynamic content. Modern browsers are extraordinarily capable — frameworks just hide that capability behind abstractions.

05

Edge-Ready by Default

Pure HTML/CSS/JS deploys to Cloudflare Workers trivially — no build step, no serverless function cold starts, no edge runtime compatibility matrix to navigate. The entire site serves from 300+ global PoPs in under 50ms. That's not a configuration. That's a consequence of building it right.

06

Genuine Craftsmanship

Writing pure code requires mastery of the fundamentals. You can't fake CSS cascade knowledge with a utility class. You can't hide behind a state management library when your logic has to be explicit. Every site we ship this way is a demonstration of real skill — not assembled pieces.
