Static Website Developer

Hand-coded websites for the independent web.

I build fast, custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript sites for Neocities, Nekoweb, and personal corners of the internet — no templates, no drag-and-drop builders, no bloat. Just clean code, written for your site specifically.

What I build

Three ways to work together

Every project starts from a blank file — never a theme. Pick the scope that fits, or ask for something fully custom.

01

Static Websites

Full multi-page or single-page sites built entirely in hand-written HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript — light, fast, and easy to host anywhere.

02

Landing Pages

Focused one-page sites for a release, profile, portfolio, or project — designed to load instantly and make a strong first impression.

03

Custom UI Design

Original layouts, animations, and interface details designed around your aesthetic — not a recycled template with swapped colors.

How it works

A simple, transparent process

From first message to live site, here's exactly what happens and when.

01

Brief & scope

You tell me about your site — purpose, pages, references, and any content you already have. I confirm scope and price before any work begins.

Usually same day
02

Layout draft

I build a first structural pass so you can see the layout and flow early, before any visual polish — easy to redirect if something's off.

Within 24 hours
03

Design & build

Full visual design, animation, and responsive behavior get coded in. You'll get a preview link to test on your own devices.

1–2 days, scope dependent
04

Revisions

Every package includes a revision round. We refine copy, spacing, and details together until it feels right.

Included, fast turnaround
05

Handoff

You receive clean, commented source files ready to upload to Neocities, Nekoweb, or any host — fully yours, no lock-in.

Why hand-coded

Custom code vs. page builders

Template builders are fast to start with — but they come with tradeoffs that show up later.

FAQ

Common questions

How do I order a website?+

Message me with your idea, references, and any content you have. I'll confirm scope and price, then get started.

Do you use templates or page builders?+

No. Every site is hand-coded from scratch in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — nothing is copied from a theme.

How fast is delivery?+

Most projects are delivered in 1–3 days depending on complexity. Premium builds may take slightly longer.

Will my site work on Neocities or Nekoweb?+

Yes — every site is built as static files, so it uploads directly to Neocities, Nekoweb, GitHub Pages, or any host you choose.

Can I request changes after delivery?+

Each package includes revision rounds during the build. Additional changes after delivery can be arranged separately.

What payment methods do you accept?+

Payment details are confirmed once scope is set — message me to discuss what works best for you.

I started building websites because I wanted my own corner of the internet to feel handmade — not assembled from a kit. That's still the standard I hold every project to.

About the studio

One developer, every line of code

Silas Web Studio is a solo practice focused on static, hand-coded websites for the independent web — personal sites, devlogs, portfolios, and small businesses who want something that feels considered, not generic.

No agencies, no outsourcing, no page builders. Just clean markup, deliberate design choices, and direct communication from brief to delivery.
