Drupal module development

When to commission module development

You might need a bespoke module when:

• Core or contributed modules don’t meet your project’s exact requirements.
• You need a clean integration with an external API or data source.
• You want to streamline complex editorial workflows or automate content handling.
• You’re building features that must be reusable across multiple sites or environments.
• You want to replace ad-hoc code snippets with maintainable, testable modules.

What our development covers

Custom functionality

We build modules to handle unique business logic—from advanced content workflows and entity relationships to automated data processing, complex forms, and conditional behaviours.

Integrations and APIs

We develop secure, well-documented integrations with third-party systems, including CRMs, translation platforms, search services, analytics, and authentication providers.

Each integration is designed to be modular, easily updatable, and safe for multi-environment deployments.

Configuration and settings

We use Drupal’s configuration system properly—defining configuration entities, defaults, and permissions clearly.

Modules are packaged to deploy consistently via config sync or config splits, ensuring predictable behaviour across environments.

Performance and scalability

We build with caching, queueing, and batch processing in mind.

Modules are profiled and tested for efficiency under load, using Drupal’s Queue API, Batch API, and caching layers where appropriate.

Security and maintainability

All code is written to Drupal coding standards and reviewed for access control, sanitisation, and update safety.

We document all custom code, follow PSR-4 autoloading, and structure services cleanly for testability.

Testing and deployment

Our modules include automated testing where appropriate (unit, kernel, and functional tests) and integrate cleanly into existing CI/CD pipelines.

We can also package modules for private composer repositories or multi-site use.
