Incremental migration from WordPress for a dev-first approach
Posted by
Navigating the agency world can be complicated, with each agency claiming to offer the most innovative solutions. Enter Gearbox, a five-person team that crafts stunning sites and apps while empowering their clients to retain complete control over their brand. The secret to their success: a "dev-first approach" that sets them apart from typical marketing and design-focused competitors.
Flexible enough to power both their small team and larger brands, Next.js and Vercel are Gearbox's go-to solutions—even for clients who may not be ready to transition to a headless stack all at once.
