Three things set us apart from an average dev shop:
1. Agile: highly collaborative, heavy communicators, transparent
2. UI engineering focus: our interfaces are lightweight, fast, intuitive and work well in a variety of browsers/devices.
3. Quality focus - we future-proof and test rigorously everything we build
Our clients are product companies and digital agencies. Half of our work is web application development and another half is marketing sites and applications.
We write enterprise-quality code for modern, lightweight, high-performance, responsive and progressively-enhanced user interfaces and single-page applications. We test and integrate.
Full-stack expertise includes Node.js (over 6000 hours), Ruby on Rails (over 4000 hours), DevOps, QA and mobile development (both iOS native and hybrid). Our clients are UI/X agencies, product, and technology solutions companies. We've built features for web properties belonging to companies such as Bayada Nurses, Comcast, Farlex, Firstrust Bank, Jackson Hewitt, Remax, Sungard, Turnberry Solutions, W2O Group.
In addition to presence in Philadelphia, we have two R&D offices in Eastern Europe: Ukraine and Montenegro.
Our server-side expertise also includes Java, .NET/C#, Python (Django), PHP (Yii, Laravel), and a couple of CMS (WordPress and Drupal) .
We are usually appreciated by teams that require quality, heavy communication and direct Agile-inspired interaction with developers. Our core expertise is in UI engineering, Ruby on Rails and Node.js. Our team is the best match for developing and supporting production applications, where quality, reliability and strategic approach to engineering is required.

For Acorns for charity
Speed and Function the best dev shop I have worked with. I have heard so many horror stories of dev shops and that simply is not the case here. Their agile methodology conforms to our demands and they communicate clear paths to success and blockers that are in the way. I really appreciate their approach in that we have daily scrums so that I can keep track of the project and help fill in the gaps, where needed. Really great choice. I have never even heard of any dev shop doing better than the work I've seen through them! Contact me if you have spoken with them and want a referral.
