ABOUT DIZZY SQUIRREL
App and web development studio with electronics & prototype hardware capability
We are a Salisbury-based development company specialising in iOS & Android mobile app development, websites and web systems, including WordPress and custom web applications.
We also have extensive experience designing and developing prototype electronics and hardware – from circuits and PCBs through bring-up and app-connected devices.
Useful engineering detail rather than vague agency language
Clients normally come to us because they need an app, website or web system to solve a real business or product problem. A mobile app may stand alone or sit at the centre of a product that also needs custom electronics. A website may need to support complex content, customer workflows or existing systems. When a physical product is involved, our prototype electronics, PCB and connected-device experience lets us work across the app/device boundary rather than treating the hardware as somebody else’s problem.
We endeavour to understand the users, the content or workflow, existing systems and the technical risks before recommending the shape of the build. Often that leads to a focused native app or website project; sometimes the right answer also includes prototype electronics, PCB development or Bluetooth/Wi-Fi hardware. APIs, backend services and third-party integrations remain part of the software architecture where they genuinely support the product.
Our aim is to be the kind of technical partner that can explain why a decision matters, identify where uncertainty should be tested and leave behind a product that another competent developer can understand and continue.
What we value in app and web work
Clarity before code
We want to understand the outcome, constraints and risky assumptions before committing effort to implementation.
Evidence over assumption
When one uncertain integration could dominate the project, a focused prototype is often more useful than a large specification.
Maintainable ownership
Useful products change. We prefer understandable architecture, clear boundaries and documentation over cleverness that makes future work dependent on one person.
Based in Salisbury, working across the UK
Most app and website projects can be delivered effectively through structured remote collaboration. For clients in Salisbury, Wiltshire and the surrounding area, face-to-face discovery sessions, design reviews and project workshops are easy to arrange, with hands-on electronics and prototype-hardware testing available where a product needs it.
We work with startups launching app ideas, SMEs improving websites and internal systems, and established organisations that need focused native mobile, web application, WordPress, electronics-prototyping or PCB capability. APIs, backend services and third-party integrations remain available where they support the product rather than define it.

Want to know whether we are a good fit for your project?
Tell us what you are trying to achieve and where the uncertainty is. An early conversation is usually enough to identify whether we can help and what a sensible next step looks like.
