Our expertise
We started with IRC (Internet Relay Chat) scripting back in 1997, TCL and shell scripting came closely after that. A couple of years later we fully engaged into web development. First PC aquired: in 1992.
One of our greatest strength is user friendly design. There are millions of ways to create a feature but only a couple of those are within the scope of slim, easy and usable design. The less clicks a user has to do to achieve their goal, the better is their experience.
Web design encompasses many different skills and disciplines. It is not only about good architecture, slim design or fancy effects. Nowadays you really want to have a web site that fits your clients' needs, has a high performance and has implemented SEO of a kind that benefits your company's goals.
Lean code is something easy to understand but hard to master. It requires the developer to know all the used frameworks in and out, read the documentations and apply the learned knowledge in a clever way. The less code you use the better it is in terms of maintenance expense and keeping your code bug free.
Our Work
This website serves as our dropbox and calendar with some additional accounting features. The dropzone extension we developed allows us to store all kinds of files ordered by filetype, easily managable via frontend and the enhanced Typo3 backend. With upcoming dates we are receiving emails and postpone recurring events via a cronjob. This site is hosted on domainfactory web package which allows us to use 100 GB of space for a small amount of money. On a plus side we do not need to maintain anything other than our database and code files which are checked in Github, of course.
It also is fully responsive and has cross-browser compatibility.
