Web App Development · Florence, Italy

Web App
Development
in Florence

Progressive web apps, admin dashboards and enterprise portals, designed to work alongside your mobile apps. Since 2010 we have shipped 100+ apps for retail, media, the public sector and enterprises, and our web platforms share their backends and their standards.

What We Build

Custom web, built to last.
01

Progressive Web Apps (PWA)

App-like experiences, straight from the browser.

Installable, fast and offline-capable web apps that feel native on phones, tablets and desktops. A PWA is often the right first step before a native app, or the perfect companion to one: one codebase, instant updates, no app store review.

  • Installable and offline-ready with service workers
  • Push notifications and responsive layouts
  • Design system shared with your iOS and Android apps
  • Core Web Vitals and performance tuning
02

Admin Dashboards & Back Offices

The control room behind your product.

Admin panels, back offices and real-time dashboards to manage the content, users, orders and data behind your apps. Clear roles and permissions, audit trails and reports your operations team will actually use.

  • Content and user management
  • Role-based access control
  • Real-time data and reporting
  • Integrations with CRM, ERP and payment systems
03

Enterprise Portals

Custom web applications for complex organisations.

Customer portals, partner and supplier portals, intranets and custom business applications that replace spreadsheets and email chains. We have built internal tools for field teams, inventory management and business process automation, and we bring the same rigour to the web.

  • Customer, partner and employee portals
  • Workflow automation and approvals
  • Single sign-on and secure authentication
  • Integration with existing systems and APIs
04

Shared Backends & APIs

One backend for web and mobile.

Your web platform and your mobile apps should speak the same language. We design APIs and backends in Node.js and TypeScript, with Go and Rust where performance matters, on AWS, GCP or Firebase, so every channel shares the same data, logic and security.

  • REST APIs and real-time services
  • Node.js and TypeScript, Go and Rust
  • AWS, GCP, Firebase and Kubernetes
  • Unified authentication across web and mobile

How We Work

From workflow to working software.
  1. 01 · Discover

    We map your users, workflows and the systems your platform must talk to, then turn them into a clear, scoped plan.

  2. 02 · Design

    Wireframes and interface design aligned with your mobile apps, reviewed with you before a line of code is written.

  3. 03 · Build

    Iterative development in TypeScript with regular demos, automated tests and CI/CD pipelines from the first sprint.

  4. 04 · Launch & Evolve

    Deployment on scalable cloud infrastructure, monitoring, and continuous improvements once real users arrive.

Why APPSTYX

Web that speaks mobile.

Many web agencies stop at the browser. We have been building mobile apps since 2010, so your web platform is designed as part of the whole product.

APPSTYX is a software house in Florence, Italy. We build web platforms that work alongside native iOS and Android apps: the same backend, the same data, the same design language. Our work spans loyalty and e-commerce for retail chains, streaming and sports, citizen services for public institutions and internal tools for enterprise teams, and that experience shapes how we build for the web: fast, reliable and ready to grow with your users.

Questions

Straight answers.
What is the difference between a web app and a website?

A website mainly presents information. A web app lets users get things done: log in, manage data, place orders, run workflows. Dashboards, portals and PWAs are web apps, and they need a solid backend, authentication and security just like a mobile app.

Should I build a progressive web app or a native app?

It depends on your users and features. A PWA is installable, works offline and reaches every device from one codebase, which makes it a strong fit for internal tools, portals and first launches. Native iOS and Android apps still win on deep device integration and app store presence. Since we build both, we recommend what fits, and often the answer is a PWA plus native apps sharing one backend.

Can you build a web platform that shares a backend with our mobile apps?

Yes, that is how we usually work. We design one set of APIs in Node.js and TypeScript that serves your web platform, your iOS app and your Android app, so data, business logic and authentication stay consistent everywhere.

Can you integrate the web app with our existing systems?

Yes. We connect web platforms to CRMs, ERPs, payment providers and internal databases through their APIs, and automate the workflows between them, so your team stops copying data by hand.

How much does a custom web application cost?

It depends on scope: the number of user roles, screens, integrations and how complex your data is. After a short discovery call we send a detailed quote, and we can start with an MVP to validate the idea before investing in the full platform.

Do you only work with companies in Florence?

No. We are based in Sesto Fiorentino, Florence, and work with clients across Italy, Europe and worldwide. Most projects run remotely, and we are happy to meet in person in Tuscany.
