Technical Development
Technical development can be the engine that powers the car, at Spriing we have Ferrari quality developers to ensure the ride is fast and efficient. Spriing combines outstanding front end designs with seamless integration to the best software and application development you can get. Spriing's development team work across 6 principal areas:
- Websites and Web based applications
- iPhone, Android and Mobile app development
- Facebook, Twitter and other 3rd Party Development
- Rich Internet Applications (RIA)
- System Hosting and Maintenance
Websites and Web based applications
Spriing build standard compliant code, with cross-browser compatibility that is robust and scalable. Spriing's technical team has a wealth of experience in client and server-side development using languages such as XHTML, CSS, Javascript, Flash, Flex, Air, Silverlight, Java, PHP, .NET and more. On each project the most appropriate technology and languages are deployed based on the needs of that project. Spriing has developed a propriety PHP framework called Ziing – which cuts development time and reduces costs substantially for client projects. Code libraries are used to eliminate duplication of common development tasks, allowing the development budgets to be used to greater effect. Another key area of the teams activities is constructing highly efficient SEO optimised code and site structures to maximise the search ability of clients sites by search engines such as Google.
iPhone, Android and Mobile app development
Spriing don't simply look to recreate websites or applications on phones. The development team deconstruct the technical elements of the device and recompose an application architecture that is best suited to the device. Spriing understands the best development methodology for iPhone and as such can build more effective applications as the development works more efficiently with the device. Spriing also have burgeoning development knowledge in Android application development.
Facebook, Twitter and other 3rd Party Development
The social revolution has opened up many opportunities for Spriing's clients and building efficient and scalable integration platforms to Facebook and Twitter has become a key part of the business. Harnessing the 500 million user audience through the use of Facebook applications, for example, is a highly cost effective and speedy tactic for many brands. Spriing has extensive and detailed experience of integrating with the array of social networks and can offer anything from simple interfaces and page designs to complex social applications across multi platforms.
RIA Development
Spriing's development team have been working on rich internet application development projects using the Flex framework. Flex offers a robust set of components that can be deployed to all major browsers across multiple operating systems. Flex provides feature such as run-time skinning, modularization and tight server-side integration as well as the possibility to port the application seamlessly to the desktop using the Adobe Air platform. Spriing is developing current RIA that need to be highly scalable and modular at an enterprise level.
System Hosting and Maintenance
Alongside the complex and 'clever stuff' there is still a requirement to host and support applications and websites. For most websites this is a fairly straightforward task requiring a simple hosting and maintenance arrangement. Some of Spriing's clients require complex system infrastructure and a service level to support thousands of simultaneous users to their site at any one time – which is a little more complex.
