Drupal development

Full Fat Things develops each application with Drupal as if our business depends on it. We’re proud to put our name against every single line of code.

We create business opportunities and rich customer experiences by using Drupal to develop applications that people love to use.

Drupal is a robust, flexible open source content management software that is ideal for developing websites and apps. It has thousands of modules and add-ons that expand its functionality and let us build almost anything you need.

Our team of senior developers know Drupal inside out. That detailed knowledge and our longevity within the Drupal open source community means everything we do is standards based and follows best practices. And where Drupal isn’t the right solution – or is only part of the solution – we’ll bring in other Full Fat Things developers who are equally well respected in their fields.

Drupal 9 development

When we’re developing new Drupal sites and apps, we always recommend using Drupal 9. Every Drupal 9 development we create ensures your future upgrade path is as straightforward as possible.

If you’re looking to migrate from older versions of Drupal, we also recommend opting for Drupal 9, as the development path is well documented. Drupal migration benefits from skill, familiarity and patience – and we have those in spades.

Drupal 9 enterprise web development

Drupal 9 is particularly well suited to enterprise applications. Between us, we have heaps of experience of building large-scale platforms with Drupal. Our clients include organisations with over 15 million embedded documents, while others support huge numbers of concurrent users.

For large organisations, Drupal is ideal as middleware between multiple in-house business systems. We’re adept at using Drupal as ‘software glue’ to provide the right service.

Major projects like these only work when Drupal is used and maintained with care. Plenty of Drupal developers won’t even undertake them – but we will. Tell us what you need, and what you dream of, and we’ll explain how we can use Drupal to help you achieve it.

Built, reviewed and maintained in-house

All of the Drupal development we do at Full Fat Things is done by members of our team. We never outsource development. That way you can be sure that everyone who works on your code has bought in to the same high standards – and consistent approach – that we set ourselves.

There’s a difference between delivering software that simply meets a spec or acceptance criteria and software that is really good. We always aim for the latter. Similarly, in our eyes a ticket is not a spec – instead, it’s a starting point for discussion to get the right software built.

(The same people will also maintain your software after it’s gone live, adding even more incentive to produce perfect code.)

Watch us work

Everything we develop is peer reviewed using GitHub, either by us or whoever you nominate.

We work in a two-week sprints using an agile development approach, with a separate review environment per change to ensure high quality delivery. As we work, you can see what we’re doing at any time as you’ll have access to the same tools we’re using. Everything we do is fully transparent.
