The 8 pillars of quality of a React.js project

Tech companies, including Bitnoise, thrive on the success of their clients. When starting a new project or enhancing existing ones, our focus should always be to deliver high-quality services within a reasonable time frame, especially in React.js-driven projects.

At our company, we have a strong commitment to our clients and prefer to establish long-term relationships with them. Hence, setting a high standard for product quality and ensuring that we meet these standards by implementing our philosophy throughout the organization is a must. Communication, accountability, and timely delivery are all integral to customer experience. We believe that by following these standards, is a path of consistently delivering the best possible work to our clients.

Here are the 8 pillars of quality in further detail.

1. Excellence Over Quantity

While growth is an crucial aspect of any tech endeavor, it is important to understand that business goals should never supersede our commitment to quality. This commitment allowed companies like Biitnoise to develop a sparkling reputation in the first place. As a result, there is a need to be extremely careful during the hiring process so that it ends with bringing in the best talent . We should not be blinded by our desire for growth and take on projects our team can’t handle. In Bitnoise, most candidates we interview do not meet the caliber we expect in our organization. Thus, we turn them away.

Furthermore, it is important that developers work with confidence knowing that they have support systems behind them. The assistance of CTO and head of technology during the development process ensure that they receive support or guidance where needed. Realistically, no developer is infallible.

In Bitnoise, collectively, our team has a deep pool of knowledge. Our developers are always welcome to consult with one another when they need advice on how to solve a problem.

2. Responsibility

When working with clients, the full ownership of the product in development is a highly desirable feature. This is not so common in our industry, but it goes to show you just how committed the tech company is to delivering quality work for clients.

In Bitnoise we want to be there both for the scaling and the building of the software to watch the company evolve. Several of our clients have worked with us for over a decade. We're in it for the long run.

The secret is, instead of outsourcing developers, we focus on developing an internal culture of accountability. As a result, we partner with companies worldwide to service their technology needs.

3. Working Globally, Coding Locally

Many prominent tech companies have clients sprinkled throughout some of the world’s top global innovation hubs, ranging from Berlin to London to Silicon Valley, but still they prefer to work as a team at home.

In Bitnoise, we are located entirely in Poland. Most of the time, we all work at our office in Poznan even though we have the option of working from home.

The main advantage of this kind of setup is that since we’re located within the EU , we can all benefit from their legal framework, and our clients can expect stability when they work with us.

4. Stable Teams With Low Turnover

The software industry can be extremely chaotic, and its job market is always competitive. To build a stable team, you must have an attractive offer and a positive work environment that incentivizes everyone to stay on board.

By managing our employees sensibly without being overbearing, we’re able to win their respect. A good idea is to foster a culture of independence in organization and endeavor to exercise common sense in all situations.

As a consequence, the team can develop a level of stability that might make some of the competition jealous.

In Bitnoise few of our engineers have worked with us for 8 years or more, and it is all thanks to an internal culture of independence, knowledge development and trust.

5. A Holistic Approach

In pursuit of quality a specialization is a very important feature, but it can not overshadow other technologies. For example in Bitnoisie we are a React.js-driven company , and you might assume that we only build frontends. But it is not the whole picture. We’re extremely competent with back-end technologies including Node.js, Python, and PHP. A large portion of our engineers are specialists in specific areas of technology. However, we also employ full-stack developers who can work on a project from start to finish.

Some of our core competencies include UX/UI, quality assurance, and project management. So you know we’re a team that can excel at any aspect of app development.

6. Seniority And Maturity

It's impossible to run a software development company without employing and training junior developers but what makes a difference is seniority. For our part, we emphasize seniority as much as we can. The majority of our developers at Bitnoise have over 7 years of industry experience. In some cases, they have worked with multiple tech stacks. Moreover, our developers usually have an educational background in Computer Science or a STEM field.

As a result of their experience and education, our clients reap the benefits in the form of Quality Audits, Consulting and Strategy services, and CTO as a service. This variety is unique among software development companies.

7. Transparency

Clients in many cases place their faith in companies whose fee structure is clear and simple. In Bitnoise we charge hourly or daily fees and validate our work on the invoice with corresponding timesheets. We don’t charge any upfront fees, recruitment costs, or any other cost that might arise during our work. In the case of a fixed-price project, we agree on a maximum fee from the beginning of the project so there won't be any unpleasant surprises down the road. Rest assured that you will get what you pay for.

Even though we involve project managers in our work, our clients still have direct contact with our developers and often collaborate with them. There won’t be any middleman mediating your communication. Moreover, our entire management team is approachable in case you have any inquiries. Feel free to reach out to us.

8. Fostering A Community

To encourage growth and education in our industry, we made it our mission to build a thriving community of software developers. In doing so, we’ve founded or participated in several software initiatives such as:

Land On Moon – a series of Berlin meetups for founders, CEOs, and product managers to discuss their experiences with one another and inspire startup leaders and other businesses that are attempting to scale.

PozTechTalks – an educational initiative where leading software companies based in Poznan promote engineering and development quality.

ITCorner – Poland’s most prominent software development business association made up of like-minded IT companies.

Bitnoise Meet – in which our in-house developers meet together to train and enhance their programming skills.
