What does LedgerByte’s backend and API development service include?

LedgerByte builds backend systems and APIs that connect application workflows, data and access controls. The agreed scope can include REST APIs, database design, authentication, third-party integrations or real-time data. Discovery identifies the systems, information flows and permissions before development.

WHEN IT FITS

When backend and API development fits.

  • A web or mobile application needs a backend and data structure.
  • Existing systems need an agreed way to exchange information.
  • Application access and data workflows need to be defined together.

HOW WE BUILD

From requirements to a working solution.

We agree the users, systems, scope and responsibilities before implementation. Testing and handover are part of the engineering process.

1

Discover

We study the business goals, user needs, current workflows and technical requirements.

2

Design

We plan the solution and use wireframes or prototypes to review the proposed experience.

3

Develop

We build the agreed application, document the work and share progress for review.

4

Test

We check the agreed functionality and review performance, security and user acceptance requirements.

5

Deploy

We plan the release, prepare the environment and coordinate the agreed migration or launch steps.

6

Support

Ongoing maintenance, updates and enhancements can be agreed around the application’s needs.

FINANCE + ENGINEERING

Built around your business requirements.

This service is available for standalone projects and can also support finance transformation. We agree the scope around the problem, the existing systems and the people who will use the solution.

PRACTICAL QUESTIONS

Questions about this service.

Can backend work support a web or mobile application?

Yes. Backend systems can support the data, authentication and workflows used by web and mobile applications. Those requirements are planned alongside the application scope.

Which third-party systems can you integrate?

The specific systems and integration requirements are assessed during discovery. We agree the data flows, available interfaces and access permissions before committing the connection to the project scope.

How are database and access-control requirements handled?

The backend development scope can include database design, authentication and security. We define the application’s data and access requirements, then include the agreed checks in development and testing.
