Our Process
Every project at Aidxn Design follows a clear four-phase process. This keeps things moving, sets expectations early, and ensures nothing falls through the cracks.
1. Discovery
Section titled “1. Discovery”We start by understanding your business, your audience, and your goals. This phase includes:
- Kickoff call — A focused conversation about what you need and why
- Competitive analysis — Understanding your market and what your competitors are doing
- Requirements gathering — Defining scope, features, and success metrics
- Timeline and budget alignment — Making sure we are on the same page before any work begins
Deliverable: A project brief outlining scope, timeline, and key milestones.
2. Design
Section titled “2. Design”With a clear brief in hand, we move into visual design:
- Wireframes — Low-fidelity layouts to nail down structure and flow
- Brand alignment — Ensuring the design reflects your identity (or building one if needed)
- High-fidelity mockups — Polished designs in Figma for review and feedback
- Iteration — Refining based on your feedback until we get it right
Deliverable: Approved Figma designs ready for development.
3. Develop
Section titled “3. Develop”This is where the design becomes a real, working product:
- Component-driven development — Building reusable, maintainable code with Astro and React
- Performance optimisation — Ensuring fast load times and strong Lighthouse scores
- Responsive implementation — Every breakpoint tested and polished
- CMS integration — Content management setup where applicable
- Testing — Cross-browser and device testing
Deliverable: A fully functional staging site for review.
4. Deploy
Section titled “4. Deploy”Once everything is approved, we go live:
- Deployment to Netlify — Production-grade hosting with global CDN
- DNS and domain setup — Pointing your domain to the new site
- Analytics configuration — Google Analytics and/or custom dashboards
- Handover documentation — Everything you need to manage your site
- Post-launch support — A support window to catch any issues after launch
Deliverable: Your live website, fully deployed and monitored.
