Apps for Big Screens

We provide custom web software development services for medium-sized enterprises and small businesses.

Geeks Invention builds custom web applications for medium-sized enterprises and small businesses, covering front end, back end and the infrastructure underneath. Work spans new products built from scratch and existing applications that need extending, modernising or stabilising, with quality engineering built into delivery rather than added at the end.

From a clickable prototype
to a scalable project

We provide full-cycle web development: from design to implementation to support and maintenance.

Prototyping

We gather all your requirements, create wireframes, and transform them into a prototype you can actually click on. Our prototypes include animations, transitions, and interactions.

Visual design

We provide graphic design, UI design, identity design, and branding. With a strong grasp of front-end technologies, we create designs that take into account what is possible in code.

Development

We specialize in Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, PHP, AngularJS, React, Node.js, and Elixir development. We choose technologies that satisfy five requirements: scalability, timeliness, supportability, performance, security

DevOPs

We provide DevOps as a managed service for businesses that run applications in the cloud. Our DevOps specialists ensure that your system runs efficiently, with ~0.002% down time and rapid deployment of changes.

Modern approaches to architecture

We use modern design patterns to create software architecture that meets all of the technical and operational requirements.

We know web development A-Z

We recognize the difference between knowing something about web development and truly mastering it.

Cloud

We design cloud applications as a collection of services or loosely coupled modules. The microservice architecture offers the flexibility to change and redeploy our modules without worrying about the rest of the application’s components. We achieve scalability with minimal effort, and can easily change the technology stack as needed.

Databases

We work with SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and NoSQL (Elasticsearch, Redis, MongoDB) databases. Our choice of database is determined by user demands and system design. We make sure all our web applications are able to store and retrieve data accurately, quickly, and reliably.

MySQL

Scalability

We architect systems to withstand high load with minimal effort. We apply scale-up and scale-out (vertical and horizontal scaling) to make sure our web apps perform well and can handle increased loads without increasing response times. We support and optimize resource utilization on various dimensions such as memory and data structures.

Load balancing
Partitioning
Sharding
Parallelization

Programming Frameworks

There are three key criteria upon which we base our decision of which framework to use: 1) ability to handle and solve common problems, 2) speed of development and 3) adaptability with emerging technologies. We specialize in the Ruby on Rails, Express, AngularJS, React, Elixir, Laravel, Symfony2 and Phoenix for Elixir frameworks.

Infrastructure

Reliable infrastructure is a prerequisite for any successful project. But in addition to reliability, we consider performance, scalability, cost, and ease of management when choosing an infrastructure service provider. We frequently work with EC2, RDS, S3 and DynamoDB cloud infrastructures.

Core technologies

We use modern, proven technologies and approaches that allow us to easily extend and scale our products.

Common questions

What kinds of web application do you build?

Business applications rather than brochure sites: customer portals, internal tooling, marketplaces, dashboards and data-heavy interfaces. Work covers both new products and existing applications that need extending or stabilising.

Can you work on an existing codebase?

Yes, and it is the more common request. The first step is reading what is there, including the parts nobody documented, before proposing changes. Estimates given before that analysis tend to be wrong.

Which technologies do you use?

The choice follows the product and whatever your team can maintain after we leave. Where you already have a stack and people who know it, staying put is usually the right call, and we will say so.

Do you handle hosting and infrastructure?

Yes. Geeks Invention holds AWS Qualified Partner status and an AWS Migration Competency, and infrastructure is treated as part of delivery rather than a separate project.
