We're steeped in the web. We're fond of Rails and Sinatra, but have experience with many web frameworks. We have also been working heavily with interactive JavaScript-based interfaces, especially as our tool of choice for the mobile platform.
Services
Our expertise ranges from the top of the web development stack through middleware and enterprise integration and down to infrastructure. We are comfortable at all levels but love developing elegant web interfaces that harness the power of new client-side UI and peer-to-peer technologies. We are excited by cloud technologies that are powering decentralized architectures and facilitating novel social applications. View some of our recent projects »
