Technology |
|
It's true, we do like buzzwords after
all! |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
C# and Microsoft
.Net |
|
This is a great development environment.
It takes all the lessons of Java and Delphi and combines
them into something new. |
|
|
| |
PHP |
|
Currently our favourite way of building
web applications. It's free, it's fast and it's technically
much stronger than the offering from Microsoft. We've
used PHP in most of our web applications. |
|
|
| |
ASP and
VBScript |
|
Unfortunately, not every server supports
PHP. Using VBScript through Microsoft's ASP mechanism
is usually the next best solution. We've written small
CMS using this. |
|
|
| |
GUI design |
|
It's not really a technology, but we
think that it's a critical skill to have when you build
software. We spend a lot of time thinking about user interface.
Something that we think that far too few software developers
consider to be important. |
|
|
| |
Delphi |
|
We like Borland Delphi. For a long
time it was the best way of making shrinkwrap software
for Windows. We've used it since version 1. We've built
a lot of software using it. |
|
|
| |
Delphi components |
|
Delphi has two levels - people who
use components and people who write components. Writing
components takes much more skill and component-based development
is becoming more important as software developers strive
to build bigger and better applications faster. Guess
where we fit! |
|
|
| |
C++ Builder
|
|
Almost as good as Delphi. It's Delphi
with a C++ language structure. We've played with it because
it's closely related to Delphi. |
|
|
| |
Webservers
Apache and Microsoft IIS |
|
Most webservers are one of these two.
If you work on web applications you'd better know about
these. |
|
|
| |
Perl |
|
We occasionally dabble. |
|
|
| |
MySQL |
|
Arguably the best free database. We've
used it as the basis of many web applications. |
|
|
| |
MS SQLServer |
|
It works well together with Visual
Basic and VBScript. We use it as the basis of applications
where MySQL isn't appropriate. |
|
|
| |
OS |
|
We are agnostic about Operating Systems.
We've developed for Windows 98, Windows NT, Linux, and
MacOS. And on various mainframes! |
|
|
| |
Cross-platform |
|
We have expertise in a number of platforms
and can help with the issues that arise when you are targeting
a range of platforms. We've developed software which was
designed to run on more than one platform. |
|
|
| |
XML |
|
A current fashion. We worked with XML
before it was fashionable. |

We can't think of anything to end the
