Our Process

How We Build Websites in Portsmouth

A clear, technical process built around shipping clean, performant code on time.

··· ··· ···

Discovery & Technical Planning

We start by understanding what the site or application needs to do - functional requirements, integrations, content structure, and any technical constraints. The build plan is mapped out before we write a line of code.

Architecture & Setup

We choose the right stack for your project - CMS, framework, hosting - and set up the repository, environments, and tooling. Everything is version-controlled and built on a foundation we can hand off cleanly.

Build & Code Review

Approved designs go to development for a pixel-perfect, performance-optimised build. All code goes through peer review before it touches main - no shortcuts, no untested merges.

QA, Launch & Aftercare

Full cross-browser and device testing, accessibility checks, and performance audits before we go live. Then we stay involved with hosting, monitoring, and improvements - your site is in good hands from day one onward.

What our Portsmouth development clients say

Honest words from the businesses whose code we look after.

Collette Whiting

Owner, Delta-Xero

The end result is a website that feels far more aligned with who we are today as a company - cleaner, more professional, easier to navigate and much stronger from both a branding and customer experience perspective.

Cameron Brew

South Coast Rx Physiotherapy

Both Brad and Kay went above and beyond in their support for us and ensured that the final version of the website represented exactly the feel we were going for. Thank you so much to both of you for all of your hard work. We could not recommend We are Jungle highly enough!

Jo Hilder

MRG Effitas

Working with We Are Jungle on the MRG Effitas website was a great experience. From briefing to completion the team was friendly, creative and efficient.

Their consultative approach meant we ended up with a well structured, well optimised website that encourages conversion. As leaders in cybersecurity testing, our site also had to be highly secure.

Our development team works from our studio in Portsmouth, Hampshire. We do not offshore code or hand work to overnight teams - the people writing your code are the people you meet and talk to.

We work most often with Statamic, WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce and Laravel. Front-end builds use Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js, and modern JavaScript where it adds value. We choose the stack that fits your project, not the other way around.

Yes. We build custom web applications on Laravel - everything from internal tools and portals to public-facing platforms with bespoke functionality. If a CMS will not do the job, we build properly from the ground up.

Yes. We regularly inherit code from other developers and agencies, audit it, and either improve what is there or plan a sensible rebuild. We will give you an honest read on what is salvageable and what needs to go.

Every project is scoped individually, so prices vary. A typical custom build starts around £5,000, with larger applications and e-commerce projects priced accordingly. We always give you a fixed quote up front - no hourly creep.

A typical custom website build takes 6-8 weeks once design is signed off, sitting within a total project timeline of 10-12 weeks. Larger applications and integrations take longer - we will give you a realistic timeline in the proposal.

Yes. Performance and accessibility are not optional extras - they are baked into how we build. Every project ships with Core Web Vitals in the green and WCAG accessibility standards followed throughout.

Yes. We offer managed UK hosting, proactive monitoring, security patching, and ongoing development on retainer. Most of our Portsmouth clients stay with us long after launch because the relationship works.
