Website development technologies
Front To Back is focused on utilising the latest technologies, where they have been proven to be reliable, accessible and provide benefits. We spend a great deal of time researching and testing new technologies and often hold off on using them until they are proven.
It is never our intention to 'blind clients with science'. With so many changes in the technology and approach, we look to make this information accessible for all of our clients - from those that have a sound understanding of 'the web' already, to those that are unsure what a browser is. It is important to us that clients feel part of the process, and not being overwhelmed by things that they don’t understand can be the first step in helping to engage.
Website coding and servers
We develop our websites using Microsoft ASP.net, running on Windows Server 2008 and IIS7. SQL Server 2008 is used on many websites.
Web page technologies
The web pages on our sites utilise XHTML, CSS and often AJAX and JQuery. Some sites utilise web services and Flash if appropriate.
Browsers
Web browsers are constantly evolving - we test on these and utilise new features once proven and widely accessible.
New hardware platforms
We develop and test our solutions on new hardware platforms including the latest touch screen devices and mobile phones.
New web technologies
We research and test new technologies such as HTML 5 and new Microsoft releases.
