An overview of the platforms, languages and methodologies we work with day to day.
We design and build native iOS and Android applications using current platform SDKs and tooling. Our work covers the full lifecycle: requirements analysis, interface design, implementation, App Store and Google Play submission, and ongoing maintenance after release.
We also work with cross-platform frameworks where they are appropriate to the project's requirements, particularly for applications that need to share a significant portion of business logic across platforms.
Responsive web platforms, customer portals, internal management systems and public-facing websites. We build with modern web frameworks and follow current standards for accessibility, performance and security.
Backend services are typically delivered as RESTful or GraphQL APIs, with documented schemas and automated test coverage. We design with maintainability and extensibility in mind from the outset.
Backend hosting, deployment automation, monitoring and infrastructure-as-code. We work with major public cloud providers and follow standard practices for security, reliability and cost management.
Continuous integration and deployment pipelines, infrastructure templates and operational runbooks are delivered as part of each project, ensuring the client retains full control of their production environment.
User research, information architecture, interaction design and visual design. Design deliverables include specifications and assets that can be implemented directly, supported by a consistent design system.
We design for accessibility, internationalization and a range of device sizes, and we test prototypes with representative users before committing to implementation where the project allows.
Functional testing, automated test coverage, regression suites, performance testing and pre-release validation. Quality assurance activity runs in parallel with engineering from the early stages of each project rather than as a separate gate before release.
Once an application is in production, we offer ongoing support arrangements covering bug fixes, security patches, dependency updates, performance monitoring and feature iteration. Support agreements are scoped clearly and renewed annually.
The methods and practices we follow on every project, regardless of size or sector.
Every project begins with a written specification covering scope, deliverables, timeline and acceptance criteria. This document is signed off before development begins.
Work is broken into short iterations with regular review milestones, allowing clients to see progress and provide feedback throughout the project.
All code passes a peer review step before merging, and consistent coding standards and architectural patterns are applied across projects.
Source code is managed in Git, and continuous integration runs automated tests on every change. Build artefacts are versioned and reproducible.
Standard security practices are applied throughout development, including dependency scanning, secrets management and review of authentication and authorization flows.
At project completion we provide documentation, source code, infrastructure templates and a handover session with the client's technical team where applicable.
Applications we deliver are designed to comply with the relevant platform guidelines and regulatory requirements applicable to the client's industry and target markets.
A typical project handover includes:
