LRDesign Technologies and Specialties
- Easy, Intuitive User Interfaces
- We specialize in making software easy to use and appropriate for its
audience. As we develop your project, we are constantly analyzing the
user interface to eliminate unnecessary clicks and awkward navigation. We
understand that a tool is only useful if users are willing to use it
and that quick, comprehensible tools equate to greater productivity and
lower stress for both you and your employees. We have developed easy-to
use tools for some extremely challenging UI tasks, and will bring the same
expertise to your project.
- Ruby on Rails
- You've heard the buzz. Rails allows for extremely rapid, well-tested
web-based database applications, automatically handling the tedious details
so the programmer can build your tools quickly. It's LRDesign's first
choice for most new web applications development.
- PHP / LAMP
- PHP is a standard workhorse of the Web 2.0 world and is the language
behind many of the web's biggest applications, like WordPress, Wikipedia,
Joomla, and many others. We have six years experience building and delivering
LAMP applications, and still make extensive use of it in automating small
websites and tasks where the full framework of Rails is not needed.
- Java
- Sun Microsystems' Java is a critical tool of the enterprise world and
is well suited to many tasks where other web-based tools will not suffice.
We have been developing applications in Java since 1997, and prefer it for
many tasks where performance is critical.
- XHTML / CSS / Web Standards
- Logical Reality is a strong proponent of the web standards movement,
and strives to produce the highest quality, most reliable web code anywhere.
We compatibility test our top-end websites against a suite of over 30
web browsers on multiple versions of Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh,
and Linux. If you have special needs to support specific or unusual platforms,
we can handle those needs with knowledge and skills many web development
firms don't have.
- Open Source Technologies
- Hundreds of excellent open-source software projects exist that can provide
your website or web application with powerful tools and interactivity at
zero cost. Whether it's simple tools like blogs, shopping carts, and image galleries,
or enterprise-grade content management tools, CRMs, collaboration environments
and social networks, LRDesign can help you select and set up these free tools,
saving you thousands over proprietary solutions. We have extensive experience
with dozens of these packages. And if there is no existing solution that
exactly fits your needs, we have the tools and experience to develop completely
custom solutions with free OSS building blocks.
