Web development has come a long way since the early 1990s. Web portals collect customer information, present marketing information, stream media, manage support, and receive payments via e-Commerce. The days of a static HTML page and some CGI are gone. Websites must be responsive and mobile friendly, and comply with the Web 2.0/HTML5 standards. The platforms we like are Drupal, Joomla!, and Ruby on Rails. Dojo Mobile is our preferred poison for mobile web development. Our finger is on the pulse of the development community, and we stay current on the latest trends. Our core team is comprised of some very impressive resumes, and we can scale resources for any size project.
Drupal
Drupal straddles the fence between CMS and framework. It has a powerful hook API, and complex things can be done with less code. The framework is written in PHP, and is very scalable. Drupal improved significantly with version 7, and will have a new set of features and usability in version 8.
Ruby on Rails
This is a pure object-oriented MVC framework. For projects with great complexity, RoR is the way to go. The framework does the heavy lifting so more time can be spent on design and implementation.
Dojo Toolkit and MooTools
The website is all about the user experience. Dojo and MooTools are JavaScript frameworks that integrates with any architecture, giving us complete interactive control over the client-side browser.
jQuery
JavaScript can be very verbose, especially when doing common repetitive tasks. jQuery is a library that wraps JavaScript into methods, allowing the developer to write less code.
Our Development Process
We develop using the waterfall method for normal projects in Drupal, and use test driven deployment for larger budget RoR projects.
e-Commerce
Selling products and services online requires planning and expertise. There are security factors, legalities, and more complexity involved in e-Commerce development. We will guide you through the entire process and deliver a high-end online store complete with reports and inventory management tools.
