Hook 42

Hook 42 is a full-service, distributed web agency based in San Francisco, California, with team members across North America. We were founded with a mission to build a congenial, dynamic, and talented team to work on interesting digital problems. We are recognized leaders in the open source space and give keynotes, sessions, and trainings at notable events across the world.

We have experience in all facets of web solutions including Agile project management, content strategy, design, user experience, software development, SEO, social media, integrations, and more. Some technologies we focus on include CMS platforms (e.g. Backdrop, Drupal 7, Drupal 8, WordPress), static site generators (e.g. Gatsby, Next), search frameworks (e.g. Elasticsearch, Solr), JavaScript and decoupled frameworks (e.g. Angular, React, Vue), and programming languages and frameworks (e.g. NodeJS, PHP, Python, Symfony).

While leading the way with web development best practices, our talented team can dive deep to solve challenging problems in many important areas including accessibility, security, architecture, performance, analytics, and devops. Whether you need a multilingual site, marketing automation and A/B testing capabilities, or a complex migration from different content and data sources, we've got you covered.

If you have your own dev team, we can help with speciality consulting, peer reviews, audits, and staff augmentation. We can provide ongoing support, maintenance, and improvements for existing sites built by other teams. We handle "rescue projects" that are incomplete and need to get over the finish line. We do emergency site recoveries for hacked websites. We can help move your site to a new hosting platform (e.g. Acquia, Amazee.io, Netlify, Pantheon, Platform.sh) or migrate to a new CMS platform. We also design and build beautiful new websites from scratch.
