Web, AI & eCommerce Engineering Notes from the team shipping it.

Practical writing from 160+ engineers building production platforms for D2C brands, enterprise retail, B2B operations, and AI-driven workflows. No fluff. No “thought leadership.” Just what worked, what didn’t, and what we’d do differently next time.

Content Pillars

Browse by what you’re actually building.

Six pillars covering everything the AddWeb engineering team ships, scopes, or supports from AI agents to platform migrations.

01 // PILLAR

Web Development

Laravel, Drupal, WordPress, Node.js, React, Vue — architectural patterns, performance tuning, and the engineering decisions that scale past launch day.

02 // PILLAR

Drupal

Drupal → WordPress. Drupal 7/8/9 → modern CMS. Legacy Drupal sites → scalable, user-friendly platforms. SEO-safe migrations for organizations that have outgrown Drupal or need a simpler content management experience.

03 // PILLAR

WooCommerce

Retail, Fashion, B2B, Electronics, Health & Wellness, Food & Beverage, Subscription Commerce — WooCommerce stores with industry-specific integrations, payment flows, and the eCommerce use cases we build every month.

04 // PILLAR

WordPress

Custom themes, plugin development, WooCommerce, Core Web Vitals, security, SEO, and the WordPress best practices we’ve learned from building and maintaining websites at scale.

05 // PILLAR

AI

LLM development, AI agents, predictive analytics, voice agents, AI-powered eCommerce ops, and the integration patterns that actually ship to production.

06 // PILLAR

eCommerce

WooCommerce, Shopify Plus, headless commerce, replatforming, subscription billing, AI shopping agents, and the end-to-end ops that win the eighth-visit checkout.
