05About
Small studio, full stack
Newport Labs is run by Kristian, a developer who works across the whole stack: front-end design in React and Next.js, back-end logic in Python and SQL, and platforms like Shopify and WordPress when they're the right tool for the job.
My background is in energy data: I designed and built a full energy management platform that analyses millions of meter readings and checks supplier bills line by line. I also run my own online businesses, so I build sites the way an owner needs them: easy to update, quick to load, and focused on sales and enquiries.
I'm based in Middlesbrough (that's the Newport Bridge in the logo) and work with businesses across Teesside and the North East, and remotely with clients anywhere in the UK.
