Code Architecture & Integration

We build plugins on a foundation of clean, scalable architecture, ensuring they integrate flawlessly with third-party services and stand the test of time.

Architectural Principles

📦

Modular Codebase

We structure code in independent, reusable modules. This makes the plugin easier to maintain, update, and extend with new features in the future.

Object-Oriented PHPService ContainersAction/Filter HooksClear Naming Conventions

Performance Optimisation

A slow plugin can cripple a website. We optimise every query and script to ensure your plugin is lightning-fast and has a minimal performance footprint.

Efficient Database QueriesAsset CachingConditional Asset LoadingCode Benchmarking

WordPress Standards

Adhering to WordPress coding standards and best practices ensures maximum compatibility, security, and a seamless experience within the WP ecosystem.

Integration Capabilities

📡

Custom REST API Endpoints

We build custom, secure API endpoints, allowing your plugin to communicate with external applications, mobile apps, or other third-party services.

Secure data exchange
Headless CMS capabilities
Connect to mobile apps
🔗

Third-Party API Integration

We seamlessly integrate your plugin with popular services like payment gateways (Stripe, PayPal), CRMs (HubSpot), and marketing tools (Mailchimp).

Automate workflows
Expand functionality
Sync data across platforms
🔒

Data Security & Sanitization

We ensure all data passing in and out of your plugin is securely handled, validated, and sanitised to prevent common vulnerabilities like XSS and SQL injection.
