The post-discovery technical deep-dive: stack choices, architecture documents, integration points, and what production deployment actually includes. Built for teams that have done the brief.
Architecture in 5 business days · mock server by end of week 1 · runbook on launch day.
Who builds custom web solutions for teams that already know what they need?
Ijjad architects and ships custom web solutions for teams across Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and the GCC who already have a brief. Ijjad delivers Next.js + Postgres platforms, headless storefronts on Saleor or Medusa, API-first backends, and AI-augmented internal tools — with an architecture document in 5 business days and mock server running by end of week 1.
Three Ijjad pages talk about web development, and they're intentionally not the same. web-development-services is the pre-discovery hub — for teams still deciding which agency to call. website-cost-estimator is the scope-tier overview for any project type. This page is the technical layer underneath both: the architecture documents, stack choices, integration points, and runbooks that come after the brief.
Read this if you already know you need a custom platform — B2B portal, headless storefront, AI-augmented internal tool, multi-region rollout — and you want the engineering detail before you scope it. Skip this if you're still evaluating agencies or pre-brief.

How a custom build runs
Architecture before code. Mock server before frontend. Runbook before launch.
Stack choices with rationale, data model, API contract, deployment topology, integration points, observability plan, and risk register. Signed off before any code begins.
Deliverable: Architecture document + risk register.
Backend: OpenAPI mock server running by end of week 1 so frontend can build against real contracts. Frontend: design tokens, component library, RTL parity.
Deliverable: Mock server + design system.
Two-week sprints. Backend, frontend, and DevOps run in parallel. Weekly Vercel preview builds. Bundle budgets enforced per route. Schema, accessibility, and PDPL/ZATCA controls baked in from sprint 1.
Deliverable: Weekly previews + sprint demo Loom.
Load testing, OWASP Top 10 security review, accessibility audit (WCAG 2.2 AA), bilingual QA, and per-country edge-case testing.
Deliverable: Security report + accessibility report.
Production deploy, runbook delivery, on-call rotation setup, and 30-day post-launch window. Optional maintenance retainer stacks on top.
Deliverable: Live platform + runbook + incident playbook.
Typical end-to-end timeline: 6-32 weeks depending on stack
First-party testimonials
These anonymized quotes are published by Ijjad. They are not native reviews from Google, Clutch, or another independent platform.
“Ijjad replaced an unclear website with a focused experience that gives prospects a much clearer path to contact us. The team understood our regional market and kept the work tied to the business goal.”
“We needed a website and mobile app on a tight scope. Ijjad gave us a practical plan that made sense for a startup, and Karam stayed directly involved through the important decisions.”
“Ijjad rebuilt the storefront around Mada checkout and a mobile-first customer flow. The result is easier for our team to manage and clearer for customers to use.”
“We launched our online catalog with cash-on-delivery and ZainCash in one checkout. The reconciliation dashboard gives our team a clearer way to manage orders, and the Arabic checkout feels native rather than translated.”
“The trilingual MVP treated Sorani Kurdish as a first-class language from the start rather than an afterthought. Ijjad also kept the page weight small for customers accessing it outside Iraq.”
“We needed governorate-level shipping rules, RFP-friendly service pages, and a site that loads well on mobile connections in southern Iraq. Ijjad delivered those requirements and walked our team through the cash-on-delivery operations before launch.”
