Question 1

How long does it take to build a custom SaaS product with Laravel?

Accepted Answer

A production-ready SaaS MVP built on Laravel typically takes 10–16 weeks. This includes architecture design, multi-tenant database setup, subscription billing integration (Stripe/Chargebee), and core feature development in Agile sprints. Galaxy Web Services delivers SaaS products for US and UK startups using Laravel 11 as the backend and React 19 as the frontend.

Question 2

What is the cost of React Native mobile app development?

Accepted Answer

A React Native mobile app for both iOS and Android typically ranges from $15,000 to $60,000+ depending on feature complexity, third-party integrations, and UI design requirements. GWS provides a detailed project estimate after a free discovery call, with typical engagement starting at $2,500/month for dedicated developers.

Question 3

Can I hire dedicated full-stack developers from Galaxy Web Services?

Accepted Answer

Yes. GWS offers dedicated developer engagement models — hire individual Laravel, React, Node.js, or full-stack developers, or entire remote teams. Our senior engineers integrate directly into your workflow using Jira, Slack, and GitHub within 48 hours of onboarding.

Question 4

How does offshore web development work for US and UK startups?

Accepted Answer

Galaxy Web Services operates as an offshore development centre in Ahmedabad, India, with dedicated teams for clients in the USA, UK, Canada, and Australia. We provide 4–6 hours of daily timezone overlap with US Eastern Time and work full UK business hours, using Slack, video standups, and shared project boards for transparent collaboration.

Question 5

What is a Progressive Web App (PWA) and should I build one?

Accepted Answer

A Progressive Web App (PWA) is a website that delivers native app-like experiences — including offline support, push notifications, and home-screen installation — without requiring an app store. PWAs are 60–70% cheaper than separate native apps. GWS builds PWAs using React and service workers for startups looking to reduce mobile development costs.

Question 6

Which technology stack does GWS recommend for a web startup in 2026?

Accepted Answer

For most B2B SaaS startups, GWS recommends Laravel 11 (backend API) + React 19 or Next.js 15 (frontend) + React Native (mobile). This stack provides maximum code reuse, an excellent talent pool, superior SEO via Server-Side Rendering, and long-term maintainability. For real-time features like chat or live dashboards, we add Node.js microservices.
