Full stack development from one team that owns every layer.
Hoop Interactive builds the whole application: React and Next.js front ends, Node.js and Python APIs, PostgreSQL databases, Flutter mobile apps and the cloud they run on. One team, one codebase strategy, and nobody to blame but us.
Most bugs live between the layers.
When one vendor builds the front end, another the API and a third runs the servers, problems fall into the gaps. “It works on our side” becomes the default answer, API contracts drift between releases, and slow pages have no single owner across the UI, queries and hosting.
A full stack team sees the whole request, so issues get fixed where they start — shared types, one API contract, end-to-end tests and a single owner for every release.
- One API contract
- Typed and shared between front end and back end.
- Web & mobile in sync
- The same API and database, not two builds.
- One owner per release
- Not a blame-passing exercise across vendors.
- Deployment included
- CI/CD, monitoring and hosting set up and documented.

One modern stack, done properly.
Many full stack companies list 30 technologies. We chose a focused stack we use every week, so your product benefits from that depth.
MERN, MEAN, LAMP, or something else?
An honest view of the common full stack options and when each one makes sense.
| Stack | What it is | Good fit when |
|---|---|---|
| Next.js + Node/FastAPI + PostgreSQL | TypeScript front end with server rendering, typed API, relational database | Most new web apps, SaaS products and portals that need SEO, speed and reliable business data |
| MERN | MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js | Document-shaped data, fast prototypes, or an existing MERN app to extend |
| MEAN | MongoDB, Express, Angular, Node.js | Teams already invested in Angular, often in enterprise settings |
| LAMP / PHP | Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP (often WordPress or Laravel) | Content sites and existing PHP systems; we usually recommend WordPress for these |
| React + Python | React or Next.js front end with a Django or FastAPI back end | Products built around AI, data pipelines or machine learning |
Full stack platforms we've built end to end.
BeesApp's patchwork of PHP, Django and Vue.js was replaced across the full stack — one Hoop team, every layer.
NEXT.JS · FASTAPI · FLUTTER · KUBERNETES
99.9% uptime for BeesApp, after rebuilding every layer
Next.js on the web, a FastAPI back end, a Flutter app and Kubernetes infrastructure, all from one Hoop team.
Read the case studyHow we differ from a typical full stack development company.
Beyond the technology logos, here's what changes for you.
| What matters | Typical full stack vendor | Hoop Interactive |
|---|---|---|
| Stack | Dozens of technologies, shallow in each. | A focused, modern stack we use every week. |
| Team shape | Separate front-end and back-end groups. | One team owning each feature end to end. |
| API contract | Agreed in a document, drifts over time. | Typed and shared between front end and back end. |
| Mobile | A different vendor or a separate project. | Flutter app on the same API, built by the same team. |
| Deployment | Your problem after handover. | CI/CD, monitoring and hosting set up and documented. |
| After launch | Bug-fix retainer. | SEO, marketing and product growth from the same company. |
How a full stack project comes together.
Foundations first, then features delivered as complete vertical slices.
Discovery & architecture
Requirements, data model, integrations and the stack decision, written down.
Week 1 · Architecture & fixed quoteDesign
User flows and UI design for web and mobile, with a shared component library.
Weeks 1–3 · Approved designsFoundations
Repositories, CI/CD, environments, auth and database set up before features.
Week 2 · Deployable skeletonVertical slices
Each feature built through every layer at once, so you see it working, not half-built.
Ongoing sprints · Working featuresHarden & launch
End-to-end tests, load and security checks, monitoring and a rollback plan.
Final sprint · Production releaseRun & grow
Support, upgrades and new features, or a documented handover to your team.
After launch · Runbook & docsFull stack development cost and timelines.
Fixed price for defined projects, monthly for ongoing work. Prices are in USD and exclude hosting and third-party services, which are billed to your own accounts.

About our full stack development services. Ask us anything else.
A full stack web application or MVP starts from $15,000 as a fixed-price project. A dedicated full stack developer starts from $3,500 per month, and a small full stack team with QA and a project manager from $9,000 per month.
Everything needed to run an application: the user interface, the back-end logic and APIs, the database, integrations with other systems, hosting and deployment, and the tests and monitoring that keep it working.
Our default is TypeScript with React and Next.js on the front end, Node.js or Python FastAPI for APIs, PostgreSQL or Supabase for data, Flutter for mobile, and Docker with Vercel, AWS or Google Cloud for hosting. We adapt when your existing system or team uses something else.
We work with React and Node.js every day, which are the core of the MERN stack. For most new products we recommend PostgreSQL over MongoDB because business data is usually relational, but we maintain and extend existing MongoDB applications too.
Node.js keeps one language across the whole stack and suits real-time features and teams that already write TypeScript. Python with FastAPI is the better choice when the product leans on AI, data processing or machine learning. We often use both in one product.
Yes. We start with a code audit across front end, back end, database and infrastructure, then stabilise, refactor or rebuild layer by layer, as we did when we rebuilt BeesApp on Next.js, FastAPI and Flutter.
Yes. We build Flutter mobile apps that share the same API and database as your web application, so web and mobile stay in sync.
One full stack developer suits small products and adding capacity to an existing team. Once you need mobile, design, QA or faster delivery, a small team with a project manager is usually more cost-effective.
You do. Code lives in your repositories and hosting, database and domain accounts are created in your name.
