Strong Core Web Vitals
Up to 95% in Lighthouse with Hyvä – without fighting bloat and legacy JavaScript libraries.
A new era of e-commerce
Sub-second loading and a team that enjoys working on the front end – without fighting Magento's bloated storefront. We build Hyvä storefronts that are fast for customers and maintainable for developers, instead of dragging years of Luma legacy along.

Business impact
Hyvä is not a technology change for its own sake. It removes the friction customers feel on mobile, category pages, product pages and the path to cart.
mobile
A faster first screen shortens the gap between a paid click or Google result and real contact with the product.
SEO
A lighter front end makes it easier to keep technical quality high, improving user experience and supporting organic visibility.
roadmap
A simpler stack means less fighting legacy JavaScript and more time spent on features sales actually need.
Decision
Not every store needs the same path. First we assess the current front end, integrations and business goal, then choose the migration scope.
Luma / Legacy
Best when
The store sells steadily, the change budget is limited and mobile performance is not a major business problem.
Decision cost
Every next improvement often adds more cost to maintaining the old stack.
Hyvä
Best when
Magento works as the commerce engine, but the front end is slow, heavy or expensive to develop.
Decision cost
Extensions need compatibility checks, custom front-end pieces need moving and rollout has to be planned carefully.
Headless
Best when
You need full product freedom, multiple channels and have the budget for greater complexity.
Decision cost
More architecture, integrations and responsibility for maintaining the whole ecosystem.
Risk control
Hyvä can make Magento much faster, but it is not a magic switch. The result depends on extensions, current front-end quality, third-party scripts and the implementation itself.
We check which modules touch the front end, cart and checkout, because some logic may need to be rebuilt or replaced.
Analytics, chats, popups and ad tags can eat the performance gains if they are not cleaned up.
We preserve URL structure, metadata, schema data and redirects so speed does not come at the cost of organic traffic.
We plan the rollout so sales do not stop and critical changes do not land in peak season.
We go further than the theme itself – we redesign the buying process. A lightweight, reactive checkout that shortens the path to purchase and cuts cart abandonment.
Moving from Luma to Hyvä calls for a surgical approach. We audit the current stack and move the logic across with no data loss and no break in sales.
FAQ
It does not have to. Hyvä mainly affects the storefront, meaning what the customer sees. Admin, catalogue, orders and integrations can stay on the current Magento setup.
Not always. Sometimes a full migration makes sense, and sometimes staging it is better: critical views first, then checkout and the remaining pieces.
A faster store usually removes part of the buying friction, but conversion also depends on offer, UX, checkout, payments and traffic quality. After migration, it is worth measuring user behaviour, not only Lighthouse.
It depends on custom views, extensions, integrations and checkout complexity. After an audit, we can define a useful first stage instead of guessing the timeline upfront.
We'll build a Hyvä storefront from scratch or migrate your existing store off Luma – with no data loss and no break in sales.
