Tools

Awesome products need great tools. We show you which great products we love and use…

Cross-Platform Apps

We fell in love with the React ecosystem and use all the proven libraries like redux and mobx. To reach the goal of cross-platform we focus on using React Native and React Native Web and wisely select 3rd party libraries that support this approach.

Progressive Web Apps

For building fast and secure web projects we found Gatsby.js as a good fit. Because it uses React.js and Webpack and offers custom plugins we are able to support the goal of cross-platform components with React Native Web.

Serverless

To reach an high level of performance and security we prefer a serverless approach. Thus we use different cloud solutions like Github Pages, Netlify, Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, etc. to provide an fast and easy to maintain product. For backend services we provide lambda functions based on Go, Node.js and Python.

Backend

While we focus on a serverless setup for all our projects, we also use cloud services like Firebase or a combination of servers in Go or Node.JS, NGINX, OpenResty, Redis deployed on Debian or Ubuntu Linux systems to support backend logic.

Programming Languages

Our preferred programming languages to support our projects are Go, Javascript, Java, Python, Lua (OpenResty), GDScript (Godot Engine), ABAP/ABAP-OO (SAP).

Environments

We live on Windows, Mac OSX and Linux operating systems and do our coding in Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text and neovim through tmux on Linux systems. We chose the environment that fits best and share our source code via git on Github or Gitea as local replacement.

Cross-Platform Games

After using different kind of game development tools and environments we fell in love with the awesome d Godot Engine. It is a compact open source C++ game engine with a custom Python flavored script language called GDScript. Via different export templates it targets most of the needed platforms. Because of it’s open source nature it is fully extensible and the MIT licence supports a completely free commercial usage.

Graphics

To create our digital art work and prototypes we rely on Inkscape and Gimp. If we do 3d modelling and rendering or cut-out-animations we use and Blender, which also became very good at video editing, thanks to the Blender Power Sequencer addon.
