LightningStudio

Web and desktop app development

Your product should work wherever your users are. We build web apps that load fast and feel like native apps, and we take the same product to Mac, Windows and Linux when it needs to live on the desktop.

We also build marketing websites that are quick, easy to find on Google and memorable, like the one you are reading now.

Common questions

Still curious? Ask us anything; we reply within one business day.

Can my mobile app also run on the web and desktop?

Often, yes. With Flutter we can ship the same app to the web, Mac, Windows and Linux. RP Nowz runs on all six platforms from one codebase.

Do you build marketing websites?

Yes. We build fast static websites with clean structure for search engines, good share previews and motion that does not slow the page down.

Where is my web app hosted?

Usually on AWS behind a CDN, so it loads quickly worldwide and costs little while traffic is low. We set it up in your own account.
