The timeline for a Hyvä development or migration depends on the complexity of your Magento store.

Basic Integration (2–4 weeks):

  • Suitable for stores with standard Magento features and minimal customization.
  • Includes theme setup, design mapping, and initial performance optimization.

Moderate Migration (4–6 weeks):

  • Involves custom UI adjustments, integration of a few third-party modules, and tailored design elements.
  • Requires additional QA and compatibility testing.

Complex Migration (6–8+ weeks):

  • Necessary for stores with heavy customization, multiple third-party extensions, or advanced B2B/B2C workflows.
  • Includes full design-to-Hyvä mapping, module compatibility fixes, and extensive performance testing.
  • Often paired with SEO adjustments and speed optimization to ensure smooth transition.

Process Overview:

  • Discovery & Planning – Assess current store setup, modules, and design requirements.
  • Design Mapping – Align existing UI/UX with Hyvä’s lightweight framework.
  • Development – Implement Hyvä theme, customize layouts, and integrate extensions.
  • Quality Assurance (QA) – Test functionality, responsiveness, and cross-browser compatibility.
  • Performance Testing – Optimize speed, Core Web Vitals, and scalability.
  • Deployment & Support – Launch the new theme and provide ongoing support.

Key Takeaway:

Hyvä offers faster performance and reduced complexity compared to traditional Magento frontends. While a basic setup can be completed in just a few weeks, complex migrations may take up to two months to ensure stability, speed, and seamless customer experience.
