CLOUD BASED

A cloud-based database system is a database that is hosted and managed remotely on a cloud computing platform, rather than being stored and run locally on a company’s own servers or equipment. This means that users can access the database from anywhere with an internet connection, and the cloud provider is responsible for handling tasks such as scaling, backups, and security. Some popular examples of cloud-based database systems include Amazon Web Services (AWS) RDS, Google Cloud SQL, and Microsoft Azure Database. These systems can be used to store and manage a wide variety of data types and are often more flexible, scalable, and cost-effective than traditional on-premises database systems. Learn more…

Company

REACT

A declarative, component-based library that’s great for building fully interactive front-ends. We love the wide support and versatility. Maintained and supported by Facebook.

ANGULAR

We love this powerful and respected full front-end framework. It’s a good solution for complex business applications. Maintained and supported by Google.

VUE.JS

Another progressive, component-based framework that we love working with.

BOOTSTRAP

We've been using Bootstrap for a long time to create beautiful, modern designs.

MATERIAL DESIGN

We love Google's Material Design and like to use it in conjunction with libraries like Angular Material and other material design implementations to show off the latest modern design styles.

UI/UX

We use tools like Adobe XD, Sketch, Figma, Invision, and Balsamiq to help mockup and try various user interface designs and user experience before we build.

TYPESCRIPT

We love putting Microsoft's awesome technology TypeScript to good use. Embraced by Angular, we've used this technology in many projects.

jQUERY

When the job is simple, jQuery can be a powerful tool. We've been using jQuery as long as it's been around. The need for this has lessened with modern ECMAScript.

PYTHON

We're fond of this excellent and powerful scripting and backend language. We most frequently pair Python with Django but also have experience with other python frameworks such as Flask and Falcon. This is also a great choice for machine learning projects, and we love using Django-admin for webapp administration.

C#

We love C# and the .NET ecosystem, especially Microsoft’s new .NET Core (now called just .NET), especially since they have released it with an open source MIT license. We’ve been working with the .NET ecosystem for 15 years, including ASP.NET, .NET, .NET Core, WinForms, XAML, etc.

.NET

.NET is an open source development platform that can be used to create a variety of different types of applications using multiple different types of languages. Can be used to build for mobile, desktop, web, games, etc.

PhP

This trusty old language is the most popular backend language on existing web apps. We've been using it for 15 years, and you won't find many with more experience than us. We've also used many PHP frameworks like CakePHP, CodeIgniter, Laravel, and others in addition to native PHP apps.

RUBY

We've done our fair share of Ruby projects, and several of our internal processes are built with this language. Ruby on Rails is the most popular framework that we use most often with this language. We also really like how rails migrations work for database change management.

NODEJS

NodeJS is a great choice we've used in projects where asynchronous calls are heavy and frequent, or where it's handy to have the backend and frontend languages be the same.

JAVA

Some of our developers just love developing in Java. We've written several enterprise and financial applications with Java backends. And of course, our native Android applications use Java (more often these days we use Kotlin for Android.)

GO/GOLANG

We've worked with Google's Go language in at least one major project now that uses Go as the primary language powering the API backend. We've found it to be delightful to code in.

iOS

The iOS developers on our team tend to be fully into Apple's ecosystem. We've developed a lot of different apps for Apple products such as iPhone, iPad, and iWatch for every version of iOS since 2008. Every new iOS app we make that we aren't doing with Flutter, we build with Apple's modern Swift language. We also maintain some older apps written with Objective C. We know the best way to integrate storyboards, nib files, auto layout, and custom views into a fast, powerful and responsive app that follows Apple's guidelines for release in the App Store.

ANDROID

Android is a powerful mobile platform we love to develop for. In our most intense Android project, we've gone as far as re-compiling a custom Android kernal to meet the needs of one of our clients. Whether the app is for Android tablet, phone, or both, we can create powerful, intuitive and responsive applications in Android. We’ve been building for Android since the first Android phone was released in 2008. We often use Google’s new Flutter/Dart framework so apps work well in both Android and iOS, but sometimes clients prefer native code, and for that we primarily use the Kotlin programming language. We also maintain some older Java-based Android apps as well.

FLUTTER / DART

There are a variety of technologies to support cross-platform mobile app development. At Guru Technologies, we are extremely proficient with Flutter and Dart, which is a very cost-efficient way to quickly build apps. We have been working with Flutter since before it's official release from Goolge and have developed over 20 mobile applications with it.

We also can work with a variety of other cross-platform technologies such as React Native, Xamarin, NativeScript, Ionic Framework, and Cordova. We’ve been working with these other frameworks for several years, primarily before Flutter was released. We continue to maintain several applications using these frameworks.

Cross-platform development technologies like Flutter are very useful for supporting iOS, Android, and even web and desktop platforms without costing nearly as much as the native app development would in each platform.
