More than a decade building software
The work is shaped by years of building, maintaining, and improving software for real businesses. The aim is dependable delivery, sensible architecture, and systems that remain useful after launch.
About
Software development for businesses that need reliable systems and clear delivery.
One Acre Web is run by Jamie, a Sheffield-based software developer working across bespoke applications, contract delivery, and SeedSort, the in-house garden planning product.
The goal is straightforward: build dependable software, improve existing systems, and help businesses move products and projects forward without unnecessary friction.
Why it exists
One place for bespoke software development, contract work, and product development.
02
Laravel, PHP and Vue at the core
A lot of the work sits around Laravel, PHP, Vue, and modern web application delivery. The stack matters less than the outcome, but these are the tools used most often to build robust software quickly.
03
Client work informed by product work
SeedSort keeps the work grounded in ongoing product development, not only one-off delivery. That means design decisions, technical trade-offs, and iteration are tested in a live product as well as in client projects.
SeedSort
SeedSort shows the same approach in a real product, not just in client work.
SeedSort is a garden planning and tracking app built to solve a real problem. It is useful proof of how product discovery, interface design, implementation, and ongoing iteration are handled in practice.
