Aragon is the industry leader in developing rich internet applications based on Flex / Flash and Web 2.0.
Web application development has changed dramatically over a very short period of time. In going from basic HTML to Web 2.0, applications provided consumers with powerful social interaction and intuitive user interfaces. Aragon has built a wealth of Web 2.0 experience utilizing:
- Java / J2EE
- Flex / Flash
- AJAX
- .NET
- PHP / Cake / Joomla / Drupal
- Python / DJango
New innovations in web applications continue to arrive at an exponential rate, bringing about another evolutionary phase in the development of the Internet. Users are seeking to move away from the traditional HTML experience and closer to a desktop interface. For this vision to be fulfilled, four critical factors must be addressed:
- Innovation in user interface design
- Compatibility across platforms
- Faster development cycles
- Performance tuning for a smoother web experience
The industry has responded with rich internet applications (RIA) such as the Adobe Flex platform. Flex allows for more flexibility in creating the application you want with a custom look and feel to suit your business needs. Several advantages of Adobe Flex are:
- Smooth user experience - Flex preloads data from the server, cutting down on latency
- Browser independence - With Adobe Flash being cross-platform, there are no more discrepancies between Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari.
- Self-contained desktop application - Flex is part of Adobe's AIR platform and can be quickly translated into a desktop widget, for which you can define the user experience.
Aragon has built a team of Flex certified engineers and adapted the Next.0™ outsourcing platform methodology to include the Flex platform.
