Software development in Rotterdam

A senior studio at Hofplein, no layers in between

Looking to have software, an app or a web application built in Rotterdam? We are based at Hofplein, work with senior developers and AI tools, and you talk directly to the people who build. From first concept to working production, or turning your Cursor or Lovable prototype into a production-ready product.

Drop by at Hofplein

We sit in the centre of Rotterdam. Walk in for a whiteboard session, or we come to you. Short lines simply work best when you are building something new.

Talk straight to the senior builders

You talk directly to the developers building your project, each with 15+ years of experience. Whatever we recommend, we have built ourselves at least once, so you get answers from the source.

AI-augmented, so faster and sharper

We combine AI tools with senior experience, which lets us deliver faster and price sharper than a traditional agency. It is the same approach we run for ourselves.

From first version to hosting

We stay involved after delivery. Going to production, hosting and further development can all happen with the same team, so you never have to switch partners halfway through.

Custom software in practice

Projects where this came up, and what they delivered.

Want to have software built, an app developed or an idea turned into a working product, and are you looking for a partner nearby? We are 010 Coding Collective, a senior development studio at Hofplein in Rotterdam. We build web applications, apps and custom software from first concept to production, and you talk directly to the people building it throughout.

Already vibe-coded something with Cursor or Lovable? We build on top of it or take it over through managed development. Want to be sure your existing code is safe to scale first? Start with a vibe coding audit. And if you are after the full service without the local angle, see custom software development.

What we build

From a first version to a system that holds up under pressure:

  • Web applications that run in the browser and work on any device, no install needed
  • Apps as a progressive web app or native, depending on your users and budget
  • SaaS platforms with user management, subscriptions and isolated customer environments
  • Finishing AI-coded projects you started with Cursor, Lovable or ChatGPT
  • Connections and integrations with CRM, ERP and the systems you already use
  • Extending existing software or modernising it step by step

Why a Rotterdam software studio

Building an app remotely can work, but the best things happen at a whiteboard. That is exactly what a local partner gives you.

📍

Around the same table

Quickly sparring about a feature, walking through a tough decision together, a prototype on the table fast. That goes quicker when you can sit together. Drop by at Hofplein, or we come to you.

Quick to adjust course

Do your plans shift or does a feature turn out different than expected? Then we sit down together to reset the course right away. Short lines save weeks on a project that runs for months.

🤝

A face and an address

We are registered at Hofplein and simply reachable. You know who you are working with and where to find them, which counts for a lot on a longer engagement.

🔒

Data in the EU, GDPR by design

We build with hosting inside the EU and account for the GDPR from the design onward. For organisations in the Netherlands that saves a lot of hassle later.

How we start

We always begin with a free intro session, at Hofplein or online. Already built something? Show us. We look at what works, what does not, and the best route forward. Then we decide the approach together: project-based with a clear scope, or ongoing as an extension of your team. We work with senior developers and AI tools, so you get a solid product quickly, without the budget getting out of hand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it cost to have software built in Rotterdam?

Every project is different, so we give you a tailored estimate. In a free intro session we look at your requirements and sketch out realistically what it costs and how long it takes. An MVP or first version is usually lower than a full platform with integrations and user management. Because we combine senior developers with AI tools, we often price sharper than a traditional agency.

Can you work on-site or at our office?

Yes. We are based at Hofplein in Rotterdam, so dropping by is easy, and for sessions or an intensive build phase we come to your office too. For teams outside the region we work fine online, with fixed check-ins so you always know where the project stands.

I want an app built in Rotterdam. Do you build native apps?

For most business products we build a web application or a progressive web app: it runs on any device, is faster to roll out and easier to maintain. If you genuinely need a native app, for example for camera or push notifications, we build it with React Native. In the intro session we advise which form fits your users and budget best.

Can you finish our app built with Lovable or Cursor?

Yes. Many clients have already vibe-coded something and want to bring it to production. We look at what holds up and what needs attention, make it safe and scalable, and can then take over hosting and further development. For a standalone review up front we have a separate vibe coding audit.

Why choose a local software studio instead of building remotely?

Building remotely can work well, but for software in development for months, short lines help enormously. Dropping by, standing at a whiteboard together, switching quickly when something changes. A local partner in Rotterdam gives you that, plus a steady point of contact, the same timezone and hosting inside the EU.
