MVS
Case overview
MVSWinFinance approached us to deliver a professional promo website that would clearly present their financial product offering and streamline the process of capturing user inquiries. The solution was built on Umbraco 16 — chosen for its modern, component-based architecture and long-term support foundation.
The delivered website covers all key commercial touchpoints: a structured contact form, configurable pricing plans, and a comprehensive FAQ section. The entire content layer is managed directly from the Umbraco backoffice, giving the client full editorial control without relying on developers for day-to-day updates.
Goal: Quickly deliver a fully manageable Umbraco 16 website, provide a scalable foundation for future growth, and implement reusable CMS-driven components - all within a strict timeline.

The challenges
Fully Backoffice-Manageable CMS
Designing the website to support fine-grained control over content, layout details, and configurable functionality — such as managing contact form recipients — all directly within the Umbraco backoffice without developer intervention.
New Platform, Limited Documentation
Umbraco 16 was a relatively new release with limited hands-on resources and community knowledge. Delivering a stable and maintainable solution required deep investigation into its mechanics and emerging best practices.
Strict Deadline Pressure
All architectural decisions — including scalability planning and forward-looking component design — had to be made and validated while simultaneously delivering the full implementation within tight project deadlines.
The process
The project was executed as a solo full-stack engagement with a strong focus on architectural clarity and CMS extensibility. Working in parallel with a frontend engineer, the technical delivery followed a phased approach — from CMS setup and backend modelling to frontend integration and final deployment. Each phase prioritised editor-friendliness and long-term maintainability.
Discovery & Architecture Planning
Analysed client requirements, defined CMS content structure, and planned the Umbraco 16 document type hierarchy, block list components, and backoffice management flows before writing a single line of code.
CMS Backend Development
Built the full Umbraco 16 CMS layer — document types, Block List models, data types — and configured uSync for environment sync and SeoToolkit for backoffice SEO management.
Frontend Integration
Integrated HTML and CSS templates developed in parallel by the frontend engineer, binding them to CMS-driven Razor views and ensuring all content areas were manageable from the backoffice.
Deployment & Validation
Managed early-stage deployment, configured SMTP-based email for the contact form, validated all functional requirements with the client, and ensured the site met delivery standards within the agreed timeline.
