Magento & Hyvä Commerce, built for growth and speed.

Magento and Adobe Commerce stores for B2B merchants, omnichannel retailers and international B2C brands, now built on Hyvä: a lighter front end that loads a fraction of the code. Engineered for growth and automation, with the lowest total cost of ownership in our experience once turnover passes £2m a year.

WHY HYVÄ

The same Magento, without the weight.

Magento's standard Luma theme loads RequireJS, Knockout and jQuery on every page. Hyvä replaces them with Alpine.js and Tailwind CSS, so pages ship a fraction of the code while the platform, data and admin stay the same.

Luma front end

RequireJS, Knockout, jQuery and LESS. About 1 MB of JavaScript and 360 files on a typical page at James Smith Fencing.

Hyvä front end

Alpine.js, Tailwind CSS, Hyvä Checkout and Hyvä CMS. About 24 KB of JavaScript and under 40 files on the same pages after the move.

Lighter, faster pages

Lighter pages mean faster category and product pages, steadier layouts and quicker taps, which Google measures in Core Web Vitals.

Hyvä Checkout

A guided Basket, Delivery, Payment and Confirmation checkout, with Mollie, PayPal, Klarna, Billie, Loqate and ShipperHQ integrations.

Edit pages without a developer

Homepages and landing pages built in the Hyvä CMS editor, with live text on banners instead of text baked into images.

The right extensions for Hyvä

We replace Luma-only extensions with Hyvä-compatible ones, such as Amasty filters and related products, and keep trade features like quotes and reward points.

QUESTIONS

Hyvä questions we get asked.

Do I need a new Magento store to use Hyvä?

No. Hyvä replaces the front end of a Magento 2 or Adobe Commerce store. Your products, customers, orders, URLs and admin stay where they are.

Will my extensions still work?

Many extensions have Hyvä versions or compatibility modules. Where one only works with Luma, we replace it with a Hyvä-ready alternative. At James Smith Fencing, filters, related products and the checkout moved to Hyvä-ready extensions, while quotes and reward points kept working through compatibility modules.

How long does a move to Hyvä take?

It depends on the number of templates and extensions. James Smith Fencing took ten weeks from the first commit to launch, including a full redesign and a new checkout.

How do you prove it's faster?

We measure the same pages on your current site and the new one, in desktop Chrome and on iPhone, and share the before-and-after figures with you.
