Shydore · independent web developer
Websites built
without limits.
From a simple idea to a fully engineered digital experience. I'm Shydore, and I design and build every site myself — around what you actually need, never forced into a template.

live demo — games, experiments and interactive experiences, right in the browser.
That's six. The full range also covers business sites, product launches, landing pages, event sites, creator sites, custom tools and experimental builds — if it happens on the web, I can probably build it.
The process
Six steps.
Zero jargon required.
You explain the idea — in your own words, no technical terms needed. I take it from there.
01
Tell me the idea your part
Describe what you want, even roughly. "A site where people can book my classes" is a perfectly good brief.
02
Plan my part starts
I work out the best structure, technology and approach for what you actually need — nothing more, nothing less.
03
Design
Visual identity, layout, user experience and interactions take shape. You see it and steer it before anything is built.
04
Build
The website is engineered and brought to life — front-end, back-end, and everything wiring them together.
05
Refine
Tested on real devices, polished, optimised, made responsive. The details most people never notice — but always feel.
06
Launch
Deployed, connected to your domain, and live. And I don't vanish afterwards — see Maintenance.
You don't need to know how websites work. That's my job.
Why Shydore
Why work with me
Custom-built
No cookie-cutter templates — unless a template genuinely makes sense for your budget and goals. Then I'll say so.
Technical freedom
Your site can be as simple or as technically ambitious as it needs to be. The technology never limits the idea.
One person, one point of contact
You deal directly with the developer building your website. No account managers, no hand-offs, nothing lost in translation.
Attention to detail
Small interactions, spacing, responsiveness, performance — the details are the difference between fine and excellent.
Built for real users
Looking good isn't the goal — working well is. Every build is fast, accessible and tested where it matters: in real hands.
Future-ready
Built to evolve. When your needs grow — a store, a booking system, an app — the site grows with them.
Selected work
Proof, not promises
A short list, on purpose. I only show work that is real, live and mine — with numbers you can check, not borrowed screenshots or a padded logo wall.
E-commerce storefront · live
Shydore Creations
The storefront for my own handmade Perk-a-Cola bottle workshop. Its job: turn marketplace browsers into a brand audience and funnel them to the listings — 1,986 bottles shipped across 669 orders says it works.
Hand-written from scratch: a custom animation engine for the product rail, structured data for search, edge-cached deploys, all tuned for phones first. And because I run the business behind it, I know what a website is actually for: sales, not decoration.

This website
The site you're reading is its own case study: one hand-written page, zero frameworks, zero libraries — with six working product demos, scroll-aware animation and a pointer-reactive interface, all running at 60fps.

Tools are chosen per project — a landing page shouldn't carry an app's machinery, and an app shouldn't be held back by a page-builder. The right tool, every time.
Pricing
One plan. Honest add-ons.
Most sites run on the simple plan: £20 to start — your chosen domain included — then £14.99 a month for hosting, updates and support. A landing page and a complex web application shouldn't cost the same, so bigger builds add a clearly-quoted one-off on top.

About
I'm Shydore.
I build things for the web.
Not "passionate about synergising digital solutions" — I just genuinely like making things. Websites, apps, stores, experiments. The web is the workshop.
I combine development, design and a habit of taking problems apart until they make sense. That means the person designing your site is the same person engineering it — so nothing gets lost between the idea and the build.
I'm independent, based in Wales, and I keep this deliberately small: a few projects at a time, full attention on each. When you email, you get me — the same person who'll design, build and launch your site.

Got an idea?
Let's build it.
Tell me what you're imagining — rough is fine, technical terms optional. I read every brief myself and I'll come back with questions, thoughts and an honest take on the best way to build it. No sales team, no hand-offs — you're talking to the person who'll actually build it.
