We develop iteratively, typically doing around 35-40 hours' work on a project at a time. At the end of a phase, you'll have working software you can play with and give to your users, and then we can design the next phase together.
This also helps us charge appropriately: when a small set of requirements for a phase has been agreed up-front, we can also set a fixed price for that phase, so there are no nasty surprises at the end.
We're extremely aware of this and so we try to create the most reusable and portable code possible, following practices like convention-over-configuration, the Twelve-Factor specification and behaviour-driven development, all of which will help anything we make for you be as comfortable a fit for future developers as it can be.
A swanky website isn't going to cut it when you're picking a developer for your next big business idea. You need evidence that we are who we say we are.
. We've done work from the smallest tweaks through to entire applications that back tech businesses; work grounded in over 15 years' industry experience.
We make no secret of our political convictions: we're here to make software that benefits humanity, even in small ways. We're not going to sell ourselves out, and that means we're not going to sell you out either.
