Development & Programming Services

Over the last 10 years, the Internet has enabled a new way for businesses to work and expand. No longer required to purchase resource hungry desktop applications to run, many businesses are realising the potential of being able to manage their business online, from any location.

I don’t like to reinvent the wheel! I am comfortable developing systems in modern frameworks such as Ruby on Rails and Magento. If you have a preference let me know.

Second Drawer is able to provide you with a way to not only promote your business online, but also to securely manage it from anywhere in the world. Experience ranges in the installation and customisation of a variety of pre-built CMS, ERP and ecommerce web applications as well as in the development of custom web applications to manage warehousing, call center applications and large scale intranets.

Custom systems can to be built, from the ground up, to meet your requirements.

• Ruby
• Javascript
• Ruby on Rails
• Magento
• MySQL & PostgreSQL
• Wordpress
• (X)HTML

Some of my recent work

Magento store customisations and Expression Engine integration

A recent contract with Stromme Interactive required the installation and customisation of a Magento store to be used as a client backend to an Expression Engine driven frontend. Magento customisations are made in a way that enables easy upgrades to Magento while keeping the specific functionality.

With the provided PSD files I then created a standards compliant site that integrated the two systems.
