Technology

Our technology stack has been tailored to balance time to market and long term maintainability.

Our web development stack

Our choices for languages:

• Ruby for the server-side

• Javascript for the client-side

• Crystal for performance constrained code

• Elixir for real-time centered applications

Our choices for frameworks:

• Rails for monolith Ruby web applications

• Roda for Ruby microservices

• Phoenix for Elixir applications

• Docker for containerization

• Staticky for static websites

Our choices for services:

• Fathom for analytics

• Dokku and Render for application hosting/deployment

We write software that uses but should not depend on a framework. Our goal is to separate framework code from core domain code as best we can so that teams can make their own technology decisions later.

Other proficiencies

Our skills go beyond our preferred technology stack, and we've made and maintained apps across multiple languages and platforms.

Other languages we're experienced in:

• Python
• Rust
• LUA
• Typescript

Other tools, frameworks and libraries:

• Next.js
• React
• Jupyter Notebooks

We also have experience building apps that integrate with platforms like Shopify and Stripe, building deep online store integrations and checkouts.
