What are the benefits of our Developers?

Going Above and Beyond - Our project team understands the importance of investing the time to listen and understand your needs, challenges and goals. We take the time to understand what success looks like to you, working in partnership to develop bespoke solutions that importantly fit within your budget. When you invest in our team, you’re not only investing in our ‘can do’, but you’re also investing very much in our ‘know-how’. If we believe there is a better way to do something, in the nicest possible way we will tell you!

Agile - There are always going to be speed bumps along the way as a project progresses and your priorities may evolve. Our delivery team(s) rolls with the punches and is adept at coming up with solutions as issues arise and requirements change.

Collaborative - We love working in partnership with our clients. We have found, the more we and our clients collaborate and work as a team - the better the outcomes are.

API Development

As expectations from users of what modern websites are capable of, we have found increasingly that we build rich web experiences that are powered by APIs, often powered by a headless Content Management System. We've built APIs at scale, and look after requests measured in hundreds of thousands per day for Metlink real-time information.

Backend

Our focus is on building flexible, modular and extensible applications. As such, we primarily opt for using Silverstripe, an open-sourced PHP-based framework that allows our teams to focus on creating beautiful, functional and easily updatable online solutions. As Wellington's first appointed Silverstripe Professional Partner, we've used Silverstripe's lack of constraints or restrictions to build websites, rich data-driven web applications, and even intranets.

Frontend

We put user experience first. As such, we use modern front-end Javascript frameworks like Vue.js to build interactive web applications. Taking this approach, we have recently leveraged technology for solutions where it can be built once for web and then delivered as an iOS and Android app.
