Our approaches and procedures for responsive web design
This is how we build super-fast and customer-oriented websites
-
Content management systems
Our approach is always pragmatic and we select a suitable system depending on the use case and budget. As software developers, we don't want to hype any particular content management system. Our most frequently used systems include WordPress, Drupal, Typo3 and Joomla. Websites that want to display many products but are not designed for sales are often created with a store system such as Shopware, from which we then program the sales buttons.
-
Desktop, tablet & mobile
Responsiveness and conversion optimization are at least as important as the technology in the background. Responsive websites automatically adapt to the optimal display on all screen sizes, from desktop or laptop computers to tablets and smartphones, without compromising the design experience or performance on the part of your customers.
-
No templates but templating
Our credo: No templates but templating. We rely on standard frameworks and build an individual template developed specifically for your company. When it comes to templating engines, we are trained on many different platforms and frameworks. We regularly work with Bootstrap, Twig and Smarty.
-
Aesthetics & design
At the beginning of the project, our design team gathers information from you about what you want from your new website, makes suggestions and researches competitors to create an action plan before we move on to the next phase. This is where we develop an innovative structure and sitemap and the layout of your new website so that everyone involved has a clear picture of how the finished project will be structured. The design team will first present the layout and home page elements to you for review and approval. Once the layout is complete, we can begin development while we finalize the home page and work on the designs for the subpages.
Our web design process
7 steps to a unique design
Are you looking for a responsive web design that suits your company and your target group and wondering how to implement it? At EXWE, the development of your individual web design comprises several steps. We are in constant direct contact with you throughout the entire design process. This enables us to ensure iterative development.
The great advantage of a responsive web design is that your web application is available and intuitive for all users - regardless of the device they are using. Our agile development of your new design enables you to reach and inspire your target group in a timely manner on all channels.
-
Requirements analysis
To ensure that you receive a design that meets your expectations, fits your company or brand and also appeals to your target group, the first step is to analyze the requirements for the design project. We look at your existing design, discover potential for improvement and record what you would like to see in your future design. We document this together with you in order to record the performance requirements and details of the project. We can then also determine the timeframe for your project.
-
For a successful collaboration, it is essential to create a concept design. The concept contains all the requirements and our plans for implementation. Our graphic artists, designers and developers know what is important and what you need for a successful web design. Of course, we welcome your valuable feedback at this point in the design process so that we can make improvements. Your wishes and requirements, coupled with our expertise and creativity, result in a unique roadmap that avoids delays and misunderstandings and can produce a successful end result.
-
Planning & Design
In the next step, we take care of the design. We create all visual aspects of your web project such as layout, color scheme, typography, images and more. In doing so, we ensure that the web application can be used intuitively and responsively on all devices. This results in a design draft that can be implemented in the next step after further consultation with you.
-
Development
Now it's time for implementation. In this phase, our designs are developed and actually integrated into your web application. We focus on full transparency and give you updates on our progress in regular meetings. A direct contact person is always available to you during the entire design and development process. Of course, we also document all implemented tasks so that you can access an up-to-date cost and performance overview at any time.
-
Testing
Before your new design goes live, we carry out extensive tests to check for possible errors. In this way, we can also guarantee that there are no usability problems with your web project and that users have unrestricted access from all browsers and devices. Of course, we also check that we have met all the defined requirements of the project and only when all the designers, graphic artists and developers in our team are 100% satisfied will your web design project be completed.
-
Go-live
After five exciting steps, the time has finally come! Your new design finally goes live. Together we can now celebrate the completion of a successful project. But our collaboration doesn't have to end if you don't want it to.
-
Support & monitoring
To ensure that your design continues to function flawlessly, updates will always be necessary. This is because technology continues to evolve. This is exactly where our support and monitoring packages come in. On request, we can provide you with a suitable contingent and take care of all updates and work that will be required for your web project in the future.

Web design from Dortmund - the metropolis of Westphalia
EXWE has been based in the heart of Dortmund since it was founded in 2016. With tailor-made, creative and technically flawless web design solutions, we realize the initial ideas of our customers and help you to get started digitally with your online presence.
The office in the heart of the Ruhr region was the right choice for us for a number of reasons. You can find out which reasons speak in favor of a location in Dortmund in our summary below:
Dortmund's location and infrastructure
Dortmund is located on the eastern edge of the Ruhr region and borders the Sauerland region to the south-east. With just under 600,000 inhabitants, Dortmund is one of the eight largest cities in Germany. Thanks to its location in the heart of Westphalia, Dortmund is a central transportation hub and easy to reach. The city is not only accessible by car, but also has an airport and a canal port.
Dortmund is also well connected to the rail network, with more than 130,000 travelers and commuters arriving at Dortmund main station every day. This transport connection is perfect for the EXWE office, as some of our employees commute to us from other cities in the Ruhr region.
Dortmund is not only known for its excellent infrastructure, but also for its wide range of leisure activities and numerous green spaces within the city.
Leisure activities in the city of Dortmund
Dortmund's history is characterized by industry and beer. This is also reflected in the city's leisure facilities.
For example, the Dortmunder U, formerly the basement tower of the Union-Brauerei Dortmund, is now a central point for art, exhibitions and creativity. Based on Dortmund's history, the Zollern colliery with the LWL Industrial Museum is also worth a visit.
Dortmund also has numerous green spaces to relax in. These include, for example, the Westfalenpark with the Florianturm, Dortmund Zoo, the Phoenix Lake in Dortmund-Hörde, the Hohensyburg recreation and hiking area and the Rombergpark. Our office at Leierwegs 13 is also right next to the beautiful Tremoniapark, where we spend our breaks, especially in summer.
Dortmund is also known as a soccer city thanks to BVB. The German Football Museum is also located in the city and offers exhibitions on the history of German soccer. If you still can't get enough of football, you can also watch a BVB match at Dortmund's Signal Iduna Stadium.
Dortmund's pub and cultural scene has also grown in recent years and there are numerous bars, pubs and clubs around the Kreuzviertel district or in Dortmund's city center.
Dortmund's economy and the IT sector
The days when coal and steel drove Dortmund's economy are over. Dortmund is now home to numerous large companies. The region's most important economic sectors include banking and insurance, as well as the tourism industry.
However, the biomedical, drug research and medical technology sectors are growing in particular. TheIT sector is also one ofthe top industries in the region. Around 15,000 people currently work in this sector in Dortmund. The universities located in Dortmund, such as TU Dortmund, FH Dortmund and ISM Dortmund, also contribute to this. International and national specialists are trained directly in Dortmund and flow into the booming job market.
Creative industries in Dortmund
The development of the creative and cultural industries in Dortmund has also been actively promoted for years. Creative districts such as the Unionviertel, Nordstadt and Brückviertel are developing sustainably. More and more creative people are settling in the city.
