About HKrafted

Independent Full-Stack Development With a Practical Business Focus

I’m Hardik Kaneria, the developer behind HKrafted, working alongside Brijesh Solanki, who leads QA and client communication on every project. Together we help businesses build clean websites, web apps, WordPress systems, ecommerce workflows, plugins, APIs, dashboards, and automation that are practical, scalable, and built around real business goals.

I build digital systems, not just pages.

A website should do more than exist online. It should explain your business clearly, help visitors trust you faster, support your operations, and make your work easier after launch.

That is the idea behind HKrafted.

I work as a freelance full-stack developer, helping founders, business owners, ecommerce brands, agencies, and growing teams build practical digital solutions — from clean business websites and WordPress systems to custom dashboards, ecommerce workflows, plugins, APIs, and automation tools.

My focus is simple: build things that are useful, maintainable, fast, and aligned with the real goal behind the project.

What is HKrafted?

HKrafted started as Hardik's independent freelance development brand.

It is not a large agency or a generic template service. Over time, Brijesh joined as a dedicated QA specialist and client lead, and today HKrafted is a focused two-person practice where strategy, design thinking, frontend, backend, CMS structure, integrations, QA, and client communication stay connected in one workflow.

When a client works with HKrafted, they are not passed between departments. They get a developer focused on the build and a QA and communication lead making sure the website, app, store, or automation system is tested, on track, and built around the actual business need.

Meet the Team

We are two people who take web projects seriously.

HKrafted started as Hardik's freelance brand. Over time, Brijesh joined as a dedicated QA specialist and client lead. Today we work together on every project — one building, one testing and communicating — so clients get a complete experience rather than just a developer.

Hardik Kaneria

Full-Stack Developer

I started HKrafted because I wanted to build things that actually work for the businesses using them — not just look good in a handoff.

I have been doing full-stack web development for 5+ years across a wide range of projects — business websites, eCommerce stores, custom dashboards, SaaS platforms, WordPress systems, APIs, and automation workflows. My primary stack is Next.js, React, Node.js, WordPress, WooCommerce, Shopify, Supabase, and PostgreSQL, but the stack always follows the problem — not the other way around.

What drives me is building systems that stay clean and maintainable after launch. A project is not finished when it goes live — it is finished when the client can actually use and grow it without constantly needing me to fix things.

Brijesh Solanki

QA Specialist & Client Lead

My role at HKrafted is to make sure two things always happen — the work meets a high standard before it reaches the client, and the client always knows where their project stands.

I handle all quality assurance, structured testing, bug tracking, and delivery sign-off on every project. I also manage client communication from the first conversation through to final handover — so clients have one responsive point of contact rather than trying to pull updates from a busy developer.

I got into QA because I genuinely care about how things feel when they land in front of real users. A broken form, a layout that shifts on mobile, a button that does nothing — these are small things that quietly destroy trust. My job is to make sure none of those things make it through.

Why Two People

Why we work as a pair — and why it matters for your project.

Most freelance developers work alone. There is nothing wrong with that. But it does mean that testing, communication, and project management often get squeezed out when development gets busy.

At HKrafted, those things never get squeezed out — because Brijesh handles them full time alongside every build Hardik is working on.

When a new feature is ready, Brijesh tests it. When a question comes in from a client, Brijesh responds. When a deadline is approaching, Brijesh flags it. Hardik stays focused on building. Clients stay informed without having to chase anyone.

It is a simple structure. It just works.

How We Work

A few things we think are worth saying directly.

01

We ask questions before we quote.

A project brief is never the full picture. We spend time understanding the actual goal, the users, the workflow, and the constraints before we propose anything. It saves everyone time later.

02

We flag problems early.

If something is not going to work the way we planned, we say so as soon as we know — not after we have already built it the wrong way. Early conversations are easier than late ones.

03

We test everything before it ships.

Every project goes through structured QA before it reaches the client. We check across devices, browsers, and screen sizes, and we document what we find. Nothing ships with known issues.

04

We communicate without being asked.

You should not have to send a message asking for an update. We share progress regularly, respond quickly, and keep the communication clear throughout.

05

We build things we can stand behind.

Clean code, documented systems, maintainable structure. We build things the way we would want to receive them if we were the client.
