Software Development

jon: ok looking at the git stuff
me: gonna git this git going
jon: we'll git er done
me: git yeah

Not a bad evening conversation. Truth is, Jon and I are working on a pretty sweet project that just so happens to have been cultivated by an introduction made via the Boise Young Professionals organization, as well as a $40 million dollar startup failure (which also included a failed Haiti Mission/Kidnapping/Prison/NBC Universal/HP/the mysterious JM, Mel Gibson movie investor waiting on a transaction to close so we can make payroll venture).

True Story.

The name Sapidyne was derived from Sapid, which is Latin for pleasing to the mind while dyne is Greek for power or force. Therefore, Sapidyne means an intellectually pleasing power or force.

Facebook Development - integrating social experiences on the web and mobile devices

Facebook application development isn't difficult. Sure, there's a learning curve, familiarity, and a comfort level - however the application of social technologies is a greater conceptual challenge than a technological one.

We've built several sites that integrate facebook, with varying degrees of success.

  • Facebook Connect
    • Allow users to login to your website / mobile app using their facebook credentials - easy, nice, has some draw-backs
  • Facebook widgets

iPhone Development Boise - Game On!

We are proud to be throwing our hat into the iPhone Development Arena. Due to popular demand for iPhone app development and a limited supply of iPhone app developers in Boise; we've teamed up with a large development outfit to collaborate on projects.

The iPhone platform and iOS has exploded in popularity. Sometimes a simple mobile css configuration on a website is enough, and other times a native iPhone app is needed. We'll help you to determine which method is best for you, and then will help to build and launch your app.

Drupal Boise - The most powerful content management platform for designers and developers is Drupal.

Content Management Systems (CMS) come in many varieties. There's the PHP/MySQL kind, the Perl, Java, and other kinds, the hosted, the custom home grown, and there's Drupal. Web development requires flexibility and powerful systems, this is where Drupal delivers.

A case for agile, sprint-based software development

It's often that we see the big picture of what we want, and not recognize the myriad of hurdles that stand before us on the path there.

In software, "Scope Creep" is the term that developers use; to others, we call it enhancement. Both are correct, we just require some vocabulary alignment and/or translation.

If it's to the benefit of the project, then it is a welcome change. "Benefit" is used loosely here. We certainly don't want to lose development velocity/momentum, however we balance that with the value of the change desired.
