Why choose Becandev for backend development?
Designed and built by one person, from the first conversation to launch — scoped clearly, built carefully and handed over properly.
Clear, secure APIs your website and apps can rely on.
Every endpoint checks what it's sent and who's asking, returns predictable errors, and is documented, so your front end, mobile app or another developer can build on it with confidence.
Connected to the services your business already uses.
Payments, email, SMS and WhatsApp, spreadsheets and CRMs: the back end talks to them for you, retries when a service is slow, and keeps a record of what happened.
An admin dashboard to run it all from.
Manage orders, bookings, customers or content in one private dashboard, with sign-in for your team and only the tools you actually need.

What a back end does
The back end is the part of a website or app that visitors don't see: it stores data, signs people in, takes payments, sends emails and connects to other services. If your site needs to remember anything or do anything on its own, it needs one.
When you need backend development
It's usually the right call when you need to:
- Take orders, bookings or payments online
- Give customers or staff their own accounts
- Connect your website to a payment provider, CRM or spreadsheet
- Replace manual, repetitive work with an automated task
- Power a mobile app or a front end built by another team
The technology
Back ends are built with Python, Node.js, Go or PHP, chosen for what your project needs and what your team can maintain. Each is explained on the technologies pages, and the choice is agreed in your quote.
What you'll need to provide
To scope accurately, it helps to have:
- What the system needs to do, step by step
- The services it must connect to, and access to them
- Any existing code, database or API documentation
- Who will use it, and what each person should be able to do
What it costs
Backend work is quoted per project, based on the features, integrations and data involved. Every quote is in writing before work begins, and hosting is billed separately in your name.
Frequently asked questions
Can't find your answer? Ask the person who'll build your website.
Ask a questionWill I know the full price before work starts?
Yes. Every project receives a written quote that itemises the deliverables, timeline and price before any work begins. Work requested outside that scope is quoted separately before it's carried out.
Can you work on a back end we already have?
Yes. The existing code is reviewed first, then you receive a written quote for the fixes or new features you need.
Which language will you use?
Python, Node.js, Go or PHP, depending on what fits your project and what your team can look after. The choice is agreed before work starts.
Can it power a mobile app?
Yes. The same API can serve your website and a mobile app, so both share one set of data and rules.
Are hosting and the domain included?
No — hosting, domains and paid third-party services are billed separately where applicable. I can recommend options and set them up in your name so you own them.
What do I receive at the end?
The source code, hosting and domain access, and project documentation — everything you need to own and run the website, whoever looks after it next.
