Hyvä is a great step forward for a better performing Magento frontend with reduced complexity as well as improved development experience.
Hyvä in Finnish means “Good”. We would say it is more than good, it is rather great! Hyvä Themes is the best alternative for the Luma Magento theme. It’s a set of tools to create a great frontend experience for Magento 2, without hundreds of individual JavaScript files and outsized libraries.
The environment is simpler because Magento is stripped of a great chunk of its codebase, also the theme is a complete rebuild. At its core, Hyvä is built with minimum dependencies – TailwindCSS and AlpineJS, which simplifies the frontend.
Straight away, Hyvä Themes delivers impressive scores of up to 100 out of 100 across all of Google’s core web vitals, both on desktop and mobile. This is all thanks to the fact that Hyvä is built with the latest technologies, and correspondingly ensures an exceptionally lightweight and, consequently, speedy storefront experience.
They are all awesome. Moving along in the digital world is a joint effort. It’s an honor to work with:
With Hyvä the frontend is still connected with the Magento backend. It is not headless, to put it another way, and we are able to use the default functionality of the powerful Magento platform more easily.
Because Hyvä uses another technology stack, third-party modules are not always compatible. Given that, it can require some custom development to make extensions compatible. A list of already compatible extensions can be found here.
As a result, with Hyvä installed, the initial page load is already below 1 second. Moreover, with the correct optimization, it is possible to reduce page load time to 500 milliseconds. Ultimately, this means better SEO scores, lower bounce rates and improved conversions.
The time to market is important. Hyvä development can take place faster than standard Magento or a headless PWA approach, due to the cut of the endless libraries of code. Developers can work at the higher pace, which results in reduced costs.
Do you consider switching from a ‘traditional’ Magento frontend towards Hyvä? It is crucial, in the first place, to check the most essential functionalities in your webshop, also if there are any custom integrations in the frontend. Together we will do an in-debt analysis of the current webshop and, of course, check what needs to be developed in order to not lose functionality. Additionally, we will create a plan to migrate to Hyvä and can give you an explicit estimation for the project after this first phase.
With creating a blueprint of your online business needs, especially the technical part. Guiding you forward, knowing when to move and where to go. Always in the direction that suits your business’s best interest.

Performance is becoming a more significant issue in eCommerce nowadays, and Magento does not have the best performance out-of-the-box. We need to spend hours optimizing. With Hyvä it is possible to build on a more modern optimized frontend environment.
Ecommerce projects are too complex to be done linearly. That is why we divide the estimated timeline into short sprints. We decide which tasks should be done each sprint to build the MVP. This way, you and the team stay in charge when circumstances change and insights evolve. Our Scrum Masters and a dedicated Product Owner lead the process.
We work from The Netherlands and Serbia. Same continent, knowledge level, and dedication. Is it nearshoring? Well, you could call it that. We see it as working together on a remote basis. Being always in the same office space to collaborate and be part of a group is so 2000.
With testing, code and visual reviews, we monitor the quality of our projects and improve every day.
We facilitate everything for a productive team. Equipment, tools, courses and certification.
Our employees can connect to internal, external communication channels and to (daily) meetings.
We would like to invite you to come to visit offices and get acquainted. Seeing is believing.
To create an awesome webshop for your customers we need first to understand your business. Know your future plans and determine what functionality your customers expect.
Our experienced ecommerce consultants will advice the best technical strategy to approach your ecommerce goals. We will advice what tools and headless technology will suit best for your business needs.
Together with our project management and scrum master we will define the project scope by creating user stories. During the project the scope can change, but always with keeping an eye on the strategy.
Based on the project scope we will form the team that will work on the project. The technical team lead will take care of the tasks together with the team members. We will follow the scrum principles.
A kickoff meeting is more than just the start of a new project. It’s a celebratory moment with everyone who’s involved. Let’s get the project started!
