Web
Web development is our specialty. We follow best practices and work with the latest, leading tools to deliver secure web applications that can scale to your needs.
What we do
Mobile
Mobile is becoming a “must have” technology. To meet your needs, we use our web development experience to build dynamic, cross-platform mobile applications.
Startup
Building a team to put your idea into action is often difficult and expensive. Hire DockYard to quickly bootstrap your MVP.
Enterprise
To capitalize on your department’s bold ideas, you will need to deliver impressive results — fast. To meet those goals, we will ensure those ideas arrive to market on time and on budget.
How we work
Ruby on Rails
When it comes to getting big things done fast, Ruby on Rails is the top web application framework available. We have been developing in RoR since before version 1.0, and we are experts in the Ruby programming language.
jQuery
Rich Internet Applications built with JavaScript are the future of the web. That’s why we choose to build applications in jQuery, the world’s most popular JavaScript library.
PhoneGap
Why develop a different application for each mobile platform when you can create one and deploy everywhere? Using PhoneGap, we will build your application to be compatible on all mobile devices. That means one team building a single application, rather than several teams building multiple applications.
PostgreSQL
We strongly recommend PostgreSQL to all of our clients. It is the most advanced open source database currently available.
Agile Development
Selecting the proper tools for your project is essential, but this will prove meaningless without an effective execution process. That’s why we practice Agile Development. We test every line of code and work on short, iterative cycles. Whether your business is a lean startup or an established enterprise, the agile process lowers costs, delivers the highest quality code and keeps your project on schedule – despite any unavoidable changing requirements that may spring up unexpectedly.
