Understanding the dos and don’ts of frontend technologies is vital to get challenging user interface concepts and designs up and running. We not only support you with integrating user interface design and engineering activities into your existing development process, we also deliver concrete software artifacts for .NET, Silverlight, WinRT and Java™ or graphical assets for other technologies. Find out how you can benefit from our user interface development services.

Agile towards success

Agile software development processes and methods form our everyday work. For this reason our user interface design and development activities accompany an overall iterative and incremental approach. Benefit from our experience with e.g. SCRUM and be inspired how user interface work items can be incorporated into sprint planning and coordination. Gain experience in mutual projects about how low-fidelity prototypes or high-fidelity spikes accelerate the identification of user stories and simplify estimation and time-boxing tasks.

Patterns rather than patchwork

We implement according to well established architectural patterns. While in .NET, Silverlight and WinRT we follow the Model-View-ViewModel approach (MVVM), in the Java world we favor the analogous presentation model pattern. In either case we separate the actual presentation logic from the application’s visual appearance and loosely couple both layers via data bindings.

Our way to modern WPF, Silverlight and WinRT UIs

In case your user interface bases on modern Microsoft frontend technologies, our UI design engineers can become an active part of your development team, supporting you with valuable XAML artifacts. Regardless whether your screens require detailed layout- and animation definitions or if you need control and data templates to revamp existing controls – our experience with Expression Blend in any case is your advantage when it comes to integrating user interface design and development. With our know-how we can support you with the following Microsoft technologies:

• WPF
• Silverlight (incl. Silverlight for Windows Phone)
• WinRT (Windows Store Apps)
