Your interface,takenseriously.
We take over front-end development and design systems for companies that have outgrown their original UI. React, Next.js, design tokens, accessibility, performance budgets. Senior designers and engineers, at a fraction of employment cost.
The orphaned
interface.
Most product interfaces past their second year have the same quiet problem. They were built fast, by people who have moved on, and now nobody owns them. Each new feature adds a slightly different button, a slightly different spacing, a slightly different shade of grey. The component library — if there is one — drifts from what is actually shipped. Designers hand over Figma files that engineers interpret differently each time.
The cost is invisible until a redesign lands on the roadmap, and then it is enormous. Or until an accessibility audit fails, a Lighthouse score drops below the threshold an enterprise buyer asked about, or a designer leaves and nobody can find the source of truth. Hiring a senior front-end lead and a senior product designer in the same quarter is rarely affordable. And even when it is, the ramp-up eats three to six months of runway.
A design system,
in production.
Your dedicated front-end engineers sit alongside senior designers and a front-end lead. Every component is built once, documented once, and reused everywhere. Every screen ships against the same tokens, the same spacing scale, the same interaction patterns. Every pull request is reviewed against the system, not against taste.
This is a delivery practice built over nearly two decades, with the same structure as our backend takeover: named people on your account, senior engineers reviewing, designers embedded, Jira in the open. Scaling the team from two to four typically takes one to two months, with new engineers inheriting the design system rather than reinventing it.
The bench runs deep by discipline: React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind and shadcn/ui; accessibility specialists working to WCAG 2.2 AA; performance engineers who treat Lighthouse as a CI gate, not a vanity metric; and product designers who ship Figma libraries with the same discipline engineers ship code.
What the same
money buys.
In effect, to match what one Koneqt seat carries behind it, you would need to employ the front-end engineer plus a share of a senior designer, an accessibility specialist and a performance engineer. That combined bench is rarely affordable at the five-to-ten-developer scale. We already maintain it.
How taking over
works.
Interface audit
1–2 weeksWe map the interface as it actually ships: every component variant, every token in use, every accessibility gap, every Lighthouse regression. You get a written inventory whether or not you proceed.
Design system hardening
2–4 weeksTokens locked. Components consolidated. Storybook (or equivalent) shipped as the source of truth. Figma library synced to code, not aspirational to it. Accessibility gaps triaged by severity.
Parallel running
2–4 weeksWe shadow, then carry. Your current team or contractors wind down on your schedule, not ours. Every new feature ships against the system from day one.
Steady state
OngoingDedicated front-end engineers, senior design review, Lighthouse CI on every PR, Jira in the open. New features, redesigns, performance work, accessibility remediation. You run the product. We run the interface.
What we
carry.
React & Next.js
App Router, Server Components, streaming, partial pre-rendering. The modern stack, shipped by engineers who have been doing it since the router was called Pages.
TypeScript end-to-end
Strict mode, shared types between API and UI, generated schemas. The compiler is a team member, not a suggestion.
Design tokens
Color, type, spacing, motion, elevation. Defined once, consumed everywhere. Drift eliminated by construction.
Component library
Built on shadcn/ui or your existing primitives. Documented in Storybook. Versioned, tested, accessible by default.
Figma library
Synced to code, not aspirational to it. Designers and engineers reference the same source of truth. Variants map one-to-one.
Accessibility (WCAG 2.2 AA)
Keyboard navigation, screen reader semantics, color contrast, focus management, reduced motion. Audited, not hoped about.
Performance budgets
Lighthouse CI on every pull request. Core Web Vitals tracked in production. Bundle size, image weight, third-party scripts — all gated.
Animation & motion
Framer Motion where it earns its weight. Reduced-motion respected. Micro-interactions that signal state, not decorate it.
Design-to-code workflow
Figma variables mapped to tokens. Dev Mode used properly. The gap between design and ship measured in minutes, not sprints.
Mobile-first responsive
Touch targets, safe-area insets, viewport units that behave. Tested on real devices, not just Chrome DevTools.
Design ops
Naming conventions, file structure, handoff process. Designers stop being a bottleneck because the system carries the weight.
Legacy UI remediation
Angular, jQuery, vanilla — we have inherited all of it. Documented, modernised in place where it makes sense, migrated where it does not.
Reviewed, audited,
reported.
Nothing reaches production on a single person’s approval. Every change goes through pull-request review by a senior front-end engineer, an automated Lighthouse gate, and an accessibility check. Designers review visual fidelity against the Figma library. Engineers review performance against the budget. You receive a written report every week, so you always know exactly where your interface stands.

were going to ask.
Give your interface
a senior bench.
Thirty minutes. Bring your stack and your current UI, and we will show you what the same budget buys when the structure is included.
