Modern Web Development Built for Speed and Scale
We implement designs with clean, maintainable code using a modern front-end stack — so your site loads fast, ranks well, and holds up as your business grows.
What's Included
Everything you get when you work with Luma Studios on web development.
Astro & Tailwind Stack
We build primarily with Astro and Tailwind CSS — a modern stack that produces exceptionally fast sites without the overhead of heavier frameworks.
Performance Optimization
Bundle size management, image optimization, lazy loading, and appropriate caching patterns built in from the start — not added as an afterthought.
SEO & Metadata Structure
Meta titles, descriptions, canonical URLs, Open Graph tags, and structured data wired in during the build so your site is search-ready at launch.
Form & Analytics Integrations
Resend for email, Google Analytics, reCAPTCHA, and third-party integrations handled cleanly without bloating the site.
Accessibility
Semantic HTML, appropriate ARIA attributes, keyboard navigation, and contrast checks that make the site accessible and trustworthy.
Vercel Deployment
We deploy to Vercel with automatic previews, edge caching, and simple CI/CD so your team can ship updates confidently.
How It Works
A clear, structured process so you always know where your project stands.
01
Technical Scoping
We review the approved designs and map out the technical requirements — integrations, dynamic elements, and any custom functionality needed.
02
Component Build
We build the site component by component in Astro, starting with the layout and core components and working through each page.
03
Integration & QA
We wire in forms, analytics, and third-party services, then test across browsers and devices to ensure everything works reliably.
04
Performance Audit
We run performance audits and address any issues before handoff — targeting a Lighthouse score above 90 for performance and accessibility.
05
Launch & Handoff
We deploy to production, verify DNS and caching, and provide documentation so your team understands how to manage and update the site.
Frequently Asked Questions
Astro produces significantly faster websites than WordPress or Webflow by default because it ships minimal JavaScript to the browser. Most marketing sites do not need the overhead of a full JavaScript framework running on every page. Astro also gives us precise control over the codebase, which means better performance scores, fewer security vulnerabilities, and easier long-term maintenance. It is the right tool for marketing sites that need to load fast and rank well.
Sites we build routinely score 90+ on Google PageSpeed Insights and target sub-second load times on modern connections. We achieve this through optimized images, lean HTML, minimal JavaScript, edge caching through Vercel, and avoiding heavy third-party scripts. We run performance audits before every launch and address any issues before handing the site over.
It depends on the tech stack. We specialize in Astro and modern front-end technologies — we can also work with Next.js, plain HTML/CSS, or other component-based frameworks. If you have an existing WordPress site, we typically recommend a rebuild rather than maintenance, because the performance and security benefits are significant. We are happy to review your current setup and give you an honest assessment.
Yes. We deploy to Vercel and can manage the deployment setup for you. Vercel offers a generous free tier for most marketing sites and provides automatic preview deployments for every branch, edge caching, and a straightforward dashboard. We can also deploy to other platforms if you have an existing preference or infrastructure requirement.
We provide a written handoff document covering how the site is structured, how to make common content updates, how environment variables are configured, and how deployments work. We also walk through the codebase in a recorded video call so your team can maintain and extend the site confidently without needing to ask us every time a small change comes up.
