Proven architecture, unrivaled results

Begin apps are, by default, Functional Web Apps (FWAs). This means apps deployed to Begin follow a battle-tested architectural pattern, which relies on single responsibility cloud functions, built-in managed databases, and deterministically deployed cloud infrastructure.

Informed by years of evidence-based research and development, this approach is also used by some of the largest properties on the internet today.

Begin apps deliver the benefits of FWAs to web developers out of the box, combining incredible ease of implementation with unrivaled reliability, power, and flexibility.

Start with HTML. Build your wildest dreams.
