We build custom WordPress plugins and Gutenberg blocks for agencies, SaaS teams and product owners. Proper block.json metadata, dynamic render, view script modules and clean PHP. No page builder shims. No hacked up hooks.
Every plugin and block starts with a written spec. Data model, hooks, schema, editor UX and save semantics mapped before the first line of code. That is how we avoid fragile blocks that break on the fifth content update.
Our output is production grade. block.json metadata, strict attribute types, dynamic render where state matters, deprecations for every shipped version. Your editors get a clean Gutenberg experience. Your developers get code they can read and extend.
A structured process that keeps scope tight and quality high. You see working builds, not status updates.
We map user stories, data model, attribute schema, editor UX and render semantics. You get a written spec and fixed quote before any code is written.
WordPress engineers build the plugin or blocks in clean PHP and TypeScript. block.json first, proper supports, sensible defaults. Weekly staging demos keep you in the loop.
PHPUnit, Playwright, WordPress coding standards, PHPStan and accessibility audits on every block. Deprecations tested against prior shipped versions so existing content never breaks.
We package the plugin, generate POT files, tag a release and hand over a README plus a video walkthrough. Optional retainer for updates and future blocks.
Not all plugin work is equal. Here is how we stack up against a typical freelancer and a traditional agency.
Fixed quotes before work begins. Choose the tier that fits your scope or ask for a custom estimate.
One custom Gutenberg block with clean editor UX, dynamic render and full i18n.
Multi block plugin with patterns, variations and a small admin settings screen.
Full plugin product with REST routes, admin UI, migrations and PHPUnit coverage.
Commercial plugin build with licensing, update server and a dedicated engineer.
A plugin is not done until it passes our internal checklist. No shortcuts, no loose ends.
PHPCS with WordPress ruleset clean on every file. No silenced warnings, no selective excludes.
Static analysis at level 8 with WordPress stubs. Types on hooks, filters and REST responses.
Unit and integration tests for core logic, REST routes and migration paths. CI gates on green.
Real Gutenberg browser tests. Insert block, edit attributes, save, reload, assert output.
Keyboard flow in the editor, labelled controls, semantic output, contrast checked in all themes.
Every attribute change ships a deprecation. Existing content rendered against prior versions in tests.
Full text domain coverage, translator comments, POT generated on build, RTL friendly markup.
Inline docs, PHPDoc blocks, README and a changelog your team can read.
Build script, ZIP artifact, semver tag and release notes for every shipped version.
We are the silent engineering team behind dozens of design and marketing agencies. Your client sees your work, your invoice and your brand. Our name never appears in the plugin header or the editor.
Plugin header, readme and admin screens carry your brand, not ours.
One point of contact for all your plugin work. Shared Slack channel, weekly syncs, fast replies.
Retainer rates, bulk discounts and priority scheduling for agency partners.
We plug into your Linear, ClickUp, Notion or Jira. No tool switching, no friction.
You share the block or plugin spec in your stack. Linear, Notion, wherever you already work.
We write a detailed technical spec and send you a partner rate quote. Never shown to your client.
You mark up, brand the proposal and present it on your letterhead at your price.
Your client signs off on your terms, with your brand, and pays you directly.
Silent build on branded staging. No credits in the plugin header, readme or editor UI.
You review, accept handover and ship the plugin to your client under your agency name.
A plugin is the package that ships functionality. A block is one piece of editor UI inside a plugin. Most of our projects ship a plugin containing one or more custom blocks, patterns, REST routes and admin screens.
Both. We use static saved markup when content is truly static and dynamic render when output depends on query state, user context or remote data. The decision is made in the spec, not mid build.
Yes. We map your existing shortcode attributes to block attributes, ship deprecations so old content keeps rendering, and provide a migration script where bulk content conversion is needed.
Yes. Our blocks use theme.json tokens and the standard block supports API, so they pick up your typography, color palette and spacing scale automatically. No hardcoded styles that fight your theme.
A single custom block with editor and frontend takes 2 to 3 weeks. A multi block plugin with REST routes and admin UI takes 5 to 10 weeks. You get a firm timeline in your written estimate.
We build bespoke plugins for you. You own the code and the distribution. We can also help package, license and ship a commercial plugin product if that is the goal.
Share your plugin or block requirements and a WordPress engineer will respond with a written estimate and timeline within one business day.
