Performance Optimization for No-Code Apps (2026 Guide)
When your no-code app takes over a minute to load or needs 14 seconds to move off the splash screen,...
Cascade built it. We'll make it production-ready.
Cascade is impressive — until it isn’t. We take over where the AI stopped.
Windsurf’s Cascade agent writes fast, confident code. It also rewrites things it shouldn’t, accumulates TypeScript errors across sessions, loses context in long projects, and leaves auth half-finished. When your build is 80% there and the last 20% won’t close, a senior developer can finish what the AI started.

The Cascade Problems We Fix Every Week
Windsurf users hit a predictable set of walls. We’ve seen all of them — and have a direct fix for each one.
Cascade Edited Too Much
Cascade rewrote working components while trying to fix something unrelated, and now multiple things are broken. We audit the diff, restore what worked, and fix only what actually needed changing.
TypeScript Debt Everywhere
A handful of ignored TS errors has grown into hundreds of type conflicts blocking your build. We clear the backlog, tighten your types, and set up config to prevent it recurring.
Context Loss Between Sessions
Cascade no longer ‘remembers’ earlier decisions, producing inconsistent code and reversing fixes you already applied. We stabilise the codebase so it can be worked on reliably.
Auth Is Half-Finished
Login works in the happy path but roles, permissions, and session edge cases are missing or broken. We complete and harden the auth layer before real users find the gaps.
Can’t Get It Deployed
The app runs locally but environment variables, build configs, and hosting quirks mean it won’t launch in production. We handle the full deployment to Vercel, Railway, or your chosen host.
Acquisition Uncertainty
Cognition’s acquisition of Windsurf has left some teams wondering about the platform’s future. We can migrate your project to a framework you fully own, independent of any single AI tool.
Recognize any of these? We fix them in 2–5 days.
Book Free Discovery CallWhat We Do With Windsurf Projects
We work with the Cascade-generated codebase, resolve accumulated technical debt, and take the project to a production-ready state.
Codebase Audit
Full review of the Cascade output: TypeScript errors, broken logic, security gaps, and unfinished features. You get a written fix plan before any work starts.
Bug Fixes & Rescue
Targeted fixes for Cascade regressions, rewrite damage, and integration failures — without breaking what already works.
Production Launch
Full deploy to Vercel, Railway, AWS, or your chosen host. Environment config, CI setup, and a production-grade release.
Feature Completion
Add what Cascade couldn’t finish reliably: complex backend logic, third-party integrations, complete auth systems, and payment flows.
Our Process
Three steps. You know the cost before committing to anything.
1
Free Discovery Call
30 minutes. You walk us through the Cascade project and what’s blocking you. We tell you honestly what it needs and what it costs. No commitment.

FinTech
Nordic FinTech — Cascade Loop, Stuck for Months, Live in 3 Weeks
A Nordic FinTech team had been going in circles with Cascade for months — every session introduced new regressions. We took over the project, stabilised the codebase, completed the remaining auth and payment features, and had them live in three weeks.
"AppStuck saved our project! Cascade kept rewriting working code and we were going backwards. They got us live in just 3 weeks."
— Lars Andersen, Nordic FinTech Solutions
Health Tech
Milano Health Tech — TypeScript Debt Cleared, MVP Shipped
A health-tech startup in Milan had a Windsurf-generated patient scheduling app with 300+ TypeScript errors and a broken auth layer. We cleared the type debt, completed role-based access control, and deployed to production within two weeks — in time for their investor demo.
"We had a demo deadline and thought the project was dead. AppStuck cleared the backlog and got us across the line."
— Giulia Romano, Milano Health TechFrequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before reaching out.
Yes. This is one of the most common issues we see with Cascade. We audit the change history, restore what was working, and fix only the code that actually needed changing.
$70/hour, 5-hour minimum. Simple fixes (TypeScript cleanup, single broken feature): 5–10 hours. Full production launches from a near-complete codebase: 15–40 hours. You get a written estimate after the free assessment.
Yes. We assess the Cascade-generated codebase, resolve accumulated technical debt, complete any unfinished features, and handle the full production deployment.
Targeted fixes: 2–5 days. Full production launch from a 70–80% complete codebase: 2–4 weeks. You get a timeline estimate after the free discovery call.
Yes. TypeScript debt from Cascade is fixable and we clear it methodically — resolving conflicts from the base types up, tightening config, and making sure the errors don’t come back.
Yes. We regularly complete and harden auth layers that Cascade generated partially. This includes role-based access control, session edge cases, password reset flows, and OAuth integrations.
Cognition acquired Windsurf in 2025. The product continues to operate and Cascade remains available, but if the uncertainty is a concern, we can migrate your project to a standard framework (Next.js, Rails, Django, etc.) that you fully own and can develop without any AI tool dependency.
