Another company's page inside yours, on their schedule and their branding.
interactive widgets
the part of the page you can touch.
An interactive floor plan, a product configurator, a calculator. A custom web widget, hand-coded into the site rather than embedded from somewhere else.
How big is that room, what does it cost in my configuration. A widget answers those on the page, while someone is deciding.
what a widget actually is.
Five objects, named.
- A clickable building floor plan. Select a room: its square metres, its purpose, its photographs. Built for PrefabEU.
- A product configurator. Choose the size, the finish and the options; the drawing and the specification follow.
- A data visualisation of your own numbers. Plotted on your page, not screenshotted from a spreadsheet.
- A calculator. What it costs, how long it takes — answered before anyone writes to ask.
- A demo animation made in code. A mechanism drawn step by step, sharp at any size.
what each one is for
A plan lets a buyer compare two layouts without opening two documents. A configurator keeps the specification in step with the picture. A chart on your page is not a chart service billed monthly.
All five are drawn by the page itself.
walk a plan, right here.
This is the widget, not a picture of one. Select a room.
JavaScript is off, so the panel is not updating. The plan is still drawn and still labelled.
Four buttons reachable with the keyboard, one panel that announces the change to a screen reader.
built into the page, not embedded into it.
Nearly every interactive thing on a small business website is somebody else's product in a box.
Nothing counts views. A popular configurator does not send a larger bill.
Nothing fetched from another domain before the page draws, and nobody watching your visitors.
And it is yours: plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript in your own repository.
what it costs to keep running
Nothing beyond the site itself. A static site is €0 a month; outside that €0 sit your own domain at roughly €10–15 a year and registered to you, transactional email past the free tiers, and unbranded multi-user booking — set out on hosting & care.
It is designed at phone width first, and the page around it reads with JavaScript off.
a house you can walk through before it exists.
A specification list asks a house buyer to imagine too much. So the site was built around a floor plan: pick a room and it opens.

Reading a number and watching it fill are not the same experience. The business brain page is the proof.
- A rotating vault sphere. Folder chips sit over a field drawn in the browser, and the motion stops when it leaves view.
- A full worked answer. The panel shows the sources, read-only tools, refusals and checks behind one reply.
- A source-to-database flow. Mail, chats, spreadsheets and documents converge without an embed or third-party script.
All hand-coded, on a page that is still a static file.

A four-room plan and a configurator with fourteen options are not the same job.
- it usually sits inside a site buildWebsite development starts at €500, excluding VAT, and a widget is normally part of that scope — see custom-coded websites.
- it is quoted in writing, after the callWhat it does, what it costs, what is excluded, and when. Two rounds of revisions included.
- nothing recurring, everNo licence, no per-view fee, no seat, no renewal.
If a widget is the whole project, say so and we scope it on its own.
where this usually sits.
A widget is rarely the whole job.
The build a widget normally ships inside. Hand-written, no templates, from €500.

The ones that come up every time.
Can you put a widget into a site I already have?
Usually. If your site lets us add our own files, the widget becomes part of the page. A closed platform allows only a frame, which gives up most of the speed.
Does it work on a phone?
That is the width it is designed at first. Controls stay thumb-sized, the layout collapses to one column, and nothing is hover-only.
Do I pay per view, or per month?
Neither. It becomes part of your site's own files: no licence counting views, no subscription to renew.
How much does a widget cost?
It is scoped per project. A widget usually sits inside a website build, and website development starts at €500 excluding VAT. You get a quote in writing.
