What we build
A genuine catch-all. If it runs on the web, we have almost certainly built something like it before.
WordPress plugins
Custom plugins built to WordPress.org directory standards, coding-standards clean, translation-ready and security-reviewed.
Theme customisations
Bespoke themes and precise tweaks to existing ones, from layout and design changes to performance work and Core Web Vitals.
APIs and integrations
Connect your systems together, wire up third-party services, or expose a clean API of your own that other tools can build on.
Migrations and rescue
Move a legacy app to a modern stack, or take over and fix a project someone else left in a difficult state.
Automation and scripts
Bulk tooling, data processing, scheduled jobs and one-off scripts that take repetitive work off your hands.
Every language, every modern stack
Deep experience means we pick the right tool for your problem instead of forcing everything through one framework.
- PHP, including Laravel and the full WordPress and WooCommerce ecosystem
- Python, including Django and modern async back ends
- JavaScript and TypeScript, Node, React and the current front-end frameworks
- Microsoft .NET for enterprise and Windows-adjacent work
- Tailwind and modern CSS, responsive and accessible by default, RTL where you need it
- PostgreSQL, MySQL and the databases and queues that sit behind them
Who you're working with
25 years of full-stack engineering, led by Neil Lock
Custom development here is led by founder and CEO Neil Lock, a full-stack developer with around 25 years building enterprise-grade applications across Laravel, Python, Django, WordPress and beyond. That range is the point: the right tool gets chosen for your problem, by someone who has shipped production code in most of them.
He is also an SEO scientist and an AI developer — building custom LLMs and n8n and Zapier automations — and the engineer who built the world's first AI-driven footprint-free PBN hosting. When we take on your project, that is the depth behind it, not a junior team learning on your budget.

Built the way we build our own platform
We run a live hosting platform with more than 700,000 sites worldwide, so the same engineering discipline goes into client work: proper testing, security review, clean handovers and no cut corners. You get code you can read, maintain and take anywhere.
There is no vendor lock-in. Whatever we build is yours, documented and handed over. And if you host the result with Zinn Digital®, you also get our card-free 14-day trial, 30-day money-back guarantee, free migrations and a 99.99% uptime assurance, so the thing we build for you has somewhere solid to live.

What kinds of projects do you take on?
Almost anything web-based, from a full custom application to a single WordPress plugin or a theme tweak. If you are not sure whether it fits, tell us about it and we will let you know honestly.
Which languages and frameworks do you work in?
PHP, Python, .NET, JavaScript and Node, plus Tailwind and every modern front-end and back-end framework. With 25+ years across the field we choose the stack that suits your project rather than the one we happen to like.
Do I own the code you write?
Yes. There is no vendor lock-in. The code is yours, documented and handed over, and you are free to host and maintain it wherever you like.
Can you host what you build for me?
If you want us to. Hosting with Zinn Digital® gets you free migrations, a card-free 14-day trial, a 30-day money-back guarantee and a 99.99% uptime assurance, but it is entirely optional.
