Services
As an independent software developer, I deliver custom solutions for small businesses. These solutions are often, though not exclusively, built upon open source software.
- Desktop software
- Cross platform software development preferably using:
- Web applications
- I have extensive experience of developing web applications based upon the J2EE platform and the LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP) solution stack.
- Web development
- Having not only developed a number of high traffic sites, but also written web crawlers, I have solid experience in how to best organize web site information in order to make it accessible. I create clean sites that are optimized for search engines, respect modern web standards, and degrade gracefully on older browsers or handheld[1] devices such as mobile phones. As a result of being based in France, I am particularly accustomed to developing transparently multi-lingual web sites designed to increase your company's international visibility.
- Content management
- Content management systems (CMS) make it easier for non technical users to publish web sites. For most small businesses wanting to update the content of their web sites, I recommend the system Joomla. Larger businesses may find the CMS Drupal to be a worthy alternative. I can install, customize, and provide training for both of these systems.
In addition to software development, I also offer an online data collection service. Using a specially designed program, Sine Fine, I am able to efficiently gather business information from the web. This data is then stored in a structured manner, facilitating its exploitation.
I am an effective project manager — your projects will be completed on time and on budget.
I look forward to being able to contribute to your success.
Notes
- Recent estimates suggest that 29% of users from the five largest EU countries regularly access the web via handheld devices (such as mobile phones and PDAs.) The success of Apple's iPhone is a further demonstration of the importance of this market. Creating or adapting websites to take into account this change is both a challenge and an opportunity. My experience and skills enable me to help you successfully make this transition.
