What does nextlevels write about?
About what keeps us busy every day as a digital agency: e-commerce with Shopware, software development with React, Next.js and NestJS, app development, AI and automation, and SEO and online marketing for mid-sized companies.
Who writes the posts?
Many articles come straight from the work of our developers, designers and strategists, such as Shopware migrations, ERP and PIM integrations or building custom business software. Every post names its author and role.
How often are new articles published?
Several times a week. The newest sit at the top under “New this week”. If you don't want to miss anything, the nextlevels Brief arrives once a month.
