Paper

(02) — the practice

Websites, storefronts, and the software behind them, for creatives and small to midsize businesses.

Custom sites on modern JavaScript frameworks. Ecommerce and headless storefronts. CMS builds and WordPress alternatives, WordPress + Woo still welcome. SEO and ADA/WCAG accessibility baked in and documented. Images and video served in next-gen formats with the right codecs. Integrations with almost anything that has an API.

Also the software for running the business. Admin panels, score entry, dashboards, status pages, the small internal tool that replaces a spreadsheet. A Postgres database you own, an API in front of it, a site on top.

Rescues too: slow WordPress sites, broken migrations, cloud bills that grew teeth. Brought back to fast infrastructure you own.

Build before buy. Open source over subscriptions. Infrastructure you run, not rent.

— the person

PaperBrain is Ramey Robles, a full-stack developer in Los Angeles. Twelve years building for creatives and growing businesses, in-house, at agencies, and solo.

One person, no account managers. The developer who builds your site is the one who answers when it breaks. It mostly doesn’t break.

A sliding scale exists. If you need something small and can’t pay full freight, ask.
