What We Do
"There are two primary tasks involved in creating a website: web design & web development. Web development is the coding or programming that enables website functionality."
Web development mainly deals with the non-design aspect of building websites, which includes coding and writing markup. It ranges from creating plain text pages to complex web-based applications, social network applications, and electronic business applications. Hope Technologies' focus is to make great web designs and ideas come to life.
Although we are developers, we still have a very good knowledge of client-side design coding and markup such as CSS 3, HTML 5, and jQuery. We also have a working knowledge of Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator which helps speed up the transition from the design phase to the actual development.
Website Development
(HTML5, CSS3, jQuery, PHP, MySQL)
Website development is the majority of what we do. This nearly always involves the five languages listed above and we consider ourselves experts in them. Whether it is taking a design from scratch, customizing a cms template, or creating a custom cms template we can handle any design or request given.
Content Management Systems
(Drupal, Wordpress, and others)
The two most used content management systems are Wordpress and Drupal. We are experts in both. With the majority of our website development being split equally between these two systems, we have a distinct advantage over much of our competition. Where Wordpress is considered to be the most user friendly and simple CMS, Drupal is much more robust and equiped to handle larger, more compex sites.
Web and Mobile Apps
(CodeIgniter, jQuery Mobile, Java, Objective-C)
Approximately 40% of our work load is web and mobile applications. For web apps, CodeIgniter is our PHP Framework of choice. It is one of the most popular PHP frameworks and is considered to be in the top two with Zend being the other.
