Let’s be honest for a second.
Starting a business is exciting. You have this amazing idea in your head, maybe it’s the next big SaaS platform, a mobile app for food delivery, or a portfolio to show off your work. You can already see the logo, the colors, and the users signing up.
But then, reality hits you. You have to actually build it.
And suddenly, you are stuck at a crossroads. You ask yourself: "Should I buy a ready-made template to save time?" Or... "Should I hire an agency to build something custom just for me?"
I’ve seen so many founders get stuck here. If you choose the wrong path, you might waste thousands of dollars or months of time.
At Rehmall Agency, we do both things. We sell premium templates (like our new AppFlow), and we also build custom apps using Flutter and Supabase. Because we sit on both sides of the table, I want to give you an honest breakdown of what path is right for you.
Path 1: The "Template" Route (The Smart Start)
Imagine you want to live in a house. Buying a template is like buying a fully furnished apartment. The walls are painted, the furniture is there, the lights work. You just need to bring your clothes (your content) and move in.
When should you buy a template? If you are just starting out, or if you want to test an idea without spending your life savings, a template is your best friend.
Take our AppFlow template, for example. We built it using Next.js 16 and Tailwind CSS. Why those technologies? Because they are fast. Like, really fast.
If you were to hire a developer to build AppFlow from scratch—creating the dark mode, the 3D mobile animations, the sticky scroll effects, and the integrations section—it would probably cost you anywhere between $2,000 to $5,000 and take 3 weeks to finish.
But buying the template costs a tiny fraction of that, and you can be live tonight.
You should choose this path if:
You need speed: You want to launch your landing page this weekend.
You care about design: You want that "Silicon Valley" premium look (Dark mode, glass effects) without hiring a designer.
You are budget-conscious: You want to save your money for marketing, not coding.
We designed AppFlow specifically for this. We made it so simple that you don’t even need to touch the complex code. There is a single file called config, and you just type your app name there, and boom—the whole website updates.
Path 2: The "Custom Build" Route (Building the Dream)
Now, let’s talk about the other side. Sometimes, a furnished apartment isn’t enough. Maybe you need a house with a swimming pool, a secret underground garage, and a roof that opens up.
Templates have limits. If your idea is unique—like an Uber clone, a real-time chat app, or a complex dashboard—you need Custom Development.
This is where Rehmall Agency steps in as your partner. We don't just give you code; we build solutions. Here is the tech stack we swear by for custom work:
1. Mobile Apps? We use Flutter.
A few years ago, if you wanted a mobile app, you had to build one for iPhone and another one for Android. That meant double the cost and double the time.
We use Flutter by Google. It allows us to write code once and run it on both iOS and Android. But unlike other shortcuts, Flutter feels native. It’s smooth, the animations run at 60 frames per second, and it feels solid in your hand.
If you hire us to build your delivery app or social network, we will likely suggest Flutter to save you money while giving you a top-tier product.
2. The Brains? We use Supabase.
Every app needs a "brain" (backend) to store user data, handle logins, and save files. Traditionally, agencies would charge you thousands to set up complex servers. We prefer Supabase.
Think of Supabase as a modern, open-source version of Firebase. It gives you:
Real-time databases: So when user A sends a message, User B sees it instantly.
Secure Authentication: Google login, Apple login, email/password—it’s all built-in.
Speed: It scales automatically. Whether you have 10 users or 100,000, it handles the load.
3. E-Commerce? We trust WooCommerce.
Sometimes, you just want to sell t-shirts, digital files, or shoes. For this, you don’t need to reinvent the wheel. We are experts in WordPress & WooCommerce.
But we don't just install a basic theme. We customize it deeply so it doesn't look like every other shop on the internet. We optimize it for speed (because nobody likes a slow shop) and security.
So, What Should You Do?
Here is my final advice to you.
Start Small, Dream Big.
If you are just launching your app or SaaS, don't overthink it. Go to our marketplace and grab the AppFlow template. It will give you a professional face for your brand instantly. You will look established and trustworthy from Day 1.
Then, once you have users and you are making money, come back to us.
Talk to our team at Rehmall Agency. Tell us, "Hey, my app is growing, I need to add a custom dashboard," or "I need a mobile app for my users." That is when we will deploy our Flutter and Supabase experts to take you to the next level.
We aren't just a shop that sells code. We are a technology partner that wants to see you win.
