Do you want to see your design turn into a fully-functioning responsive front-end code? You’ve come to the right website.
Turning a design into code: challenges and our agency
Designing a website is certainly not easy. There are a lot of variables you need to take into account, and if you’re new to the process, you certainly can make a lot of mistakes that will damage the performance and visibility of the website:
You need to make sure the code is compatible with all major browsers
Can you name all the browsers out there? We can’t too. There are a massive amount of browsers, and most of them have unique engines that interpret the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code. Even among the most used browsers, there are differences. Internet Explorer might execute a JavaScript function completely differently from Google Chrome.
That’s why you need to ensure your code is accommodating to all the different browsers. This isn’t easy and requires a lot of experience and testing. Thankfully, our agency has both, so if you want to ensure your website functions properly on all major websites, you need us.
Mobile-friendly and responsive
- Do you know how to ensure your design looks readable and stylish on a 4K screen?
- Can you at the same time make sure the website also looks really good on a 480p screen?
Both of those screen sizes are common among internet browsers, yet they are worlds apart in terms of graphic fidelity. It isn’t an easy task, ensuring the website is compatible with all these screen resolutions.
The worst part is that search engines like Google and Bing will penalize you during searches and won’t show your website in the results pages if your website isn’t responsive. That’s why it is necessary for you to account for this.
Coding best practices and separation of concern
The hardest thing for inexperienced coders to get right is the proper structure and function of the different parts of the code. It is certainly possible for an unprofessional website coder to turn a design into code, but most likely it is just a house of cards. The file structures need to be intuitive, each piece of code needs to have a clear and concise function, there should be a separation of different elements of the website.
This makes it much easier to integrate the theme into different content management systems, and it won’t be a nightmare to update the website later on.
These three main components of web development make it a good idea to hire an experienced, professional, and inexpensive agency to handle the coding for you. Thankfully, we fulfil all three criteria. You can be sure you’ll get a high-quality HTML code that completely fulfils the requirements of your design with us.

Our approach
When entrusting your projects to an agency, it is important to know how they approach this project. We have a methodological approach that ensures we tackle projects in a systematic and optimal manner:
Establishing contact
The first thing you need to do is to establish contact with us. We offer you multiple communication channels – all you have to do is drop us a message and tell us what kind of project you have in mind. Until we start coding your project all communications are free, so you have no reason not to contact us right now.
Estimation
Converting Sketch to HTML isn’t simple, and the work required on each project deeply varies by the complexity of the design, the requirements of the theme, and the number of pages. That’s why we’ll discuss all aspects of the project with you when establishing contact – we ensure we get all the relevant details ironed out before we go ahead with development.
Development
During the development phase, we take a systematic approach to turning Sketch into HTML – we believe that a good software development agency approaches projects methodologically and ensure each piece of code is documented. This makes the code robust, bug-free, and easy to update later on.
Testing and Optimization
Coding themes are quite complicated – you need to ensure it is responsive and displays correctly on different screen sizes, it supports mobile, and its display isn’t affected by the browser and the theme stays consistent on all major browsers. For these reasons, it is quite paramount to rigorously test the theme, and that’s just the thing we do.
The Finalized HTML Files
Now, after ensuring the theme is ready for use, we hand over all the files to you, and we’ll keep in contact with you if you have an issue in the future.
The technologies we use
You can design amazing user interfaces with Sketch – using the latest designing techniques to create a unique design that will captivate visitors. You don’t want to lose any of the design elements when it gets converted to code – to make sure that doesn’t happen, you need to use the latest and great web technologies.
That’s exactly what we do here at Acclaim. Our technology stack only includes the latest technologies that are used by top agencies around the world.

Keep track of our Sketch to HTML service
While we document our code thoroughly and we ensure to respond to all your inquiries after delivering the code to you, but we also understand the necessity of our clients to keep up with the latest developments while we work on their projects, that’s why we offer two ways for you to keep track of development:
Staging
You can keep up with all the latest updates from our own staging platform – we regularly update it with all the relevant information related to your project.
GitHub
Access to the code is quite important for some clients, and it can help establish more clear communication, and that’s why we offer access to your project’s repository on GitHub. You’ll be able to see when we commit new code to your project, so you’ll be familiar with the minutest of changes.
