Applications
At 4th Dimension Development we love web applications. In fact we like web development so much that we are constantly creating our own applications. Some of these are experiments, some are for side ventures, and others are to help our client relationships.
iPhone Web Application
4th Dimension Development is currently working on a web application targeting the iPhone/iPod Touch. This application enables a user community to add content through our online interface using their mobile devices. The content can then be pushed to a native iPhone application to the benefit of the user community. Our goal is to create a web application that could be accessible to first a selected user group and then expanded to a broad audience. By targeting the iPhone specifically we can tie together the user experience from using the native application with the web application. Because we use best practices like the MVC pattern, we will be able to create other interfaces as well without duplicating much effort.
The tools we are using:
- Adobe Fireworks to create the wire frames and layouts for our work flows.
- Adobe Photoshop for the graphical assets of our application.
- CodeIgniter PHP framework for rapidly creating a robust application that can easily be reused for other client view technologies and devices.
- jQuery & JavaScript – We use jQuery to easily add visual effects and handle any AJAX calls. Where appropriate we use custom JavaScript to optimize our application.
- MySQL database to hold our data.
We are currently in the testing phase and will be releasing soon!
