Technology
Everything should be as simple as it can be, but not simpler
We aim for simple and maintainable solutions that fit your audience and budget.
Backend
We focus on the Drupal 8 open source content management framework as the toolkit to build the backbone of your site, with its wealth of third party modules, mature release and security process, and powerful new features being released every 6 months. With over 17 years of combined Drupal experience between us, we’re active members of the community that works hard to ensure that the pieces which make up your site are embraced, tested and improved.
Frontend
We will convert your responsive designs into beautiful, pixel perfect and functional frontend solutions which work across the wide variety of devices common on today’s web. With a focus on accessibility and standards, and with Drupal powering the backend, you can trust your site will work just as well with the new browsers of tomorrow.
Why Drupal?
- It’s a proven open source technology, powering websites for CARE, The Economist and London Gatwick, currently on its eighth and most ambitious version yet.
- The core provides a powerful set of tools with which you can build complex data models, rich authoring experiences, customised workflows, REST services and much more.
- It has a mature security process whereby security bugs are fixed in private and then announced with their fix in a controlled and public manner.
- It has an active community that use, maintain, support and develop Drupal daily, as well as the support of companies and corporations across a diverse range of sectors.
- It has a sophisticated automated testing infrastructure, covering not just the core software but contributed modules… including those we build for you.
Why Open Source?
- Avoid vendor lock-in: get support from a wide range of sources.
- Benefit from a large community of developers and testers.
- Take as much of the development as you like in-house.
Operations
Technology should work for you - not the other way around!
- We use automated testing to verify your features deliver the expected functionality; we particularly like to use Behat tests, which allow us to use simple English sentences to describe how things should work - and then verifies the actual site matches the expected behaviour.
- We use continuous integration to automatically run tests regularly, reassuring you that your site works on delivery, and will continue to work as it evolves.
- We believe in infrastructure as code. Our development environment is set up to match production environments as closely as possible, ideally with the configuration being stored within the codebase. This ensures when we’re developing we see exactly the same behaviour as you and your customers.
- We protect personal data of you and your customers. We have a clear and documented process to ensure that any personal data is cleansed before it reaches a development laptop.
- We consider the development environment part of the product: we provide a “one-click” deployment process that sets up a safe and functional development environment, making it easy for you to either do development in-house, or outsource to another company.
