Context

Odoo’s shift to OWL in v17+ introduces a modern frontend framework, but also increases complexity for custom UI development. Many businesses struggle to build stable, maintainable, and upgrade-safe frontend components while extending Odoo beyond standard views.

Who this is for

We work best with teams who treat software as an operating system for the business, not a one-off project.

Good fit

Businesses using Odoo v17 or higher
Teams building custom dashboards and UI components
Companies modernizing legacy Odoo frontend code
Enterprises needing advanced Odoo workflows and portals
Developers struggling with OWL migration and architecture

Not a fit

Businesses using only standard Odoo without customization needs
Teams not planning frontend or UI enhancements
Projects not on Odoo v17 or above
Organizations not requiring OWL-based development

The operating reality

Odoo frontend customizations break with legacy approaches

Traditional JavaScript and jQuery-based customizations no longer work reliably in modern Odoo versions. Businesses face broken widgets, unstable UI behavior, and upgrade failures due to tightly coupled or poorly structured frontend code. This limits UI flexibility and slows down product development.

How this is usually solved

Common approaches

Where it falls short

Common approaches

Using legacy JavaScript or jQuery-based customizations
Directly overriding core Odoo frontend code
Mixing UI logic with backend business logic
Building non-reusable and tightly coupled components

Where it falls short

Frontend breaks after Odoo upgrades
Poor performance and unstable UI behavior
Hard-to-maintain and complex codebase
Limited scalability of custom features
