Web development in London
We build web platforms and customer-facing web products for London and UK businesses, remotely from our team in Pakistan. Senior engineers who scope and build the work themselves, in a daily window that overlaps your morning.

Web Development for London
The web work London asks for is fintech dashboards, SaaS platforms, and healthcare and professional-services web apps: products where someone logs in, does real work, and comes back tomorrow. These are not marketing pages. They are the tools a business runs on, and they are judged on how they hold up under daily use by people with a job to get done, not on a first impression.
UK web products carry obligations that are non-negotiable rather than optional. GDPR shapes how a platform collects, stores and handles personal data, so we design data handling in from the start rather than papering over it before launch. Accessibility is both a legal expectation and a quality bar, particularly for anything public-facing or in healthcare. And Core Web Vitals matter for real reasons: they affect how a product ranks, how it feels to use, and whether users trust it, so we build to a performance budget rather than optimising after the fact.
We have no London office. Yarqat is registered in Islamabad and the team works from Pakistan, four hours ahead of the UK in summer and five in winter, so every working day has a window where your morning meets our afternoon. That window is where a web platform gets shaped: product decisions with your team, sprint reviews, and sessions watching your own UK users try a new flow, with the engineer who built it on the call rather than reading a summary afterwards.

What is specific
Built for London
GDPR and data handling designed in
A UK web product touches personal data, and GDPR is not something to bolt on before launch. We design how data is collected, stored, minimised and deleted as part of the architecture, so consent, retention and subject-access requests are handled by the system rather than by scrambling later. For fintech and healthcare especially, getting this right at the start is far cheaper than retrofitting it under scrutiny.
Accessibility and Core Web Vitals as a quality bar
Accessibility is both a legal expectation and a mark of a product built properly, and Core Web Vitals affect ranking, feel and trust. We build to recognised accessibility standards and to a performance budget from the start, testing against real assistive technology and real load conditions rather than assuming a build passes. For a SaaS or professional-services platform that people use all day, both are core rather than polish.
Senior-led, with the platform in your hands
The engineer who scopes your platform is the one who builds it, so estimates do not drift between a senior pitch and a junior delivery bench. Because we work remotely, we build as if a handover could happen any day: repositories and cloud accounts in your name, infrastructure defined in code and a documented deployment process, so the platform never depends on access to our machines.

Scope
What we build
Project delivery, owned end to end, for London clients.
- Fintech and financial dashboards where users log in, transact and rely on the data being right, built to UK regulatory expectations
- SaaS platforms and multi-tenant web applications built to grow with the business rather than be rebuilt at the next stage
- Healthcare and professional-services web apps with GDPR-compliant data handling designed into the architecture
- Customer portals and internal tools that teams use daily, built for reliability rather than first impressions
- Accessible front ends built to recognised standards and tested against assistive technology, not assumed to pass
- Performance-focused, SEO-friendly builds on modern headless and server-rendered stacks, tuned for Core Web Vitals

What else we build in London
Web Development in London: common questions
Where is Yarqat based, and how does a remote build run week to week?
Yarqat is registered in Islamabad, Pakistan, and we build for UK clients remotely, with no London office. Week to week that means working software on a staging environment you can open at any time, regular reviews in the window where your morning meets our afternoon, and questions handled in your own issue tracker rather than a separate status report. We arrange our working hours to overlap yours.
How do you handle GDPR in a web product?
By designing data handling into the architecture rather than adding it before launch. How personal data is collected, stored, minimised and deleted, how consent is captured and how subject-access requests are served are decided at the start. Because our engineers work from Pakistan, we also keep our own access to live personal data to what the work needs, since access from outside the UK is an international transfer under UK GDPR.
Do you build accessible web applications?
Yes. We build to recognised accessibility standards and treat accessibility as a testable part of the work rather than an audit discovered late, testing against real assistive technology. For UK products it is both a legal expectation and a mark of a platform built properly, and for anything public-facing or in healthcare it is not optional.
Can you improve Core Web Vitals and performance?
Yes, and we build to a performance budget from the start rather than optimising after launch. Core Web Vitals affect how a product ranks, how it feels to use and whether users trust it, so we make deliberate trade-offs between richness and speed and measure against real load conditions. On modern headless and server-rendered stacks a fast, SEO-friendly build is the default rather than a later project.
What makes you different from a London web agency?
The engineer who scopes your platform is the one who builds it. Many agencies win with a senior pitch and deliver with whoever is available, which is where estimates drift and quality slips. We are deliberately small and senior, with no account manager in between, and we are remote: meetings happen on video, and the conversation is always with the person writing the code.
Web development in London?
Tell us what you are building. We serve London remotely, with no local office and no account manager in between, so the person who reads this is the one who would run the work.
- 01A senior engineer reads it. Not a form queue, and not an account manager.
- 02We reply either with questions or with a straight answer that we are not the right fit.
- 03If it looks like a fit, a technical call with the person who would actually run the delivery.
- 04Then scope, effort and risk in writing, before anyone signs anything.
