web application development

At edgeofmyseat.com we are experienced web application developers, specialising in using Open Source technologies to develop highly scalable and robust solutions for a wide variety of businesses.

Our projects

The projects we have worked on are varied recent and ongoing work includes festival ticket sales for Greenbelt Festivals, e-commerce stores such as the recent store developed for Koh Samui and the Netgear UK Support Portal which consists of an extranet and issue tracking system.

Technologies and core skills

Our core specialism is PHP and MySQL. The company has been delivering projects using PHP and MySQL since 2002 and we have extensive experience of this language and using this environment to develop projects both large and small.

In order to enable rapid development of web applications we have developed a PHP framework that we use to deliver many of our projects. This ensures that we begin projects with a robust and scalable set of libraries, with many basic issues solved before writing the code that is custom to your particular business requirement.

We have worked with most of the leading payment gateway providers (PayPoint, ePDQ, WorldPay, PayPal, Protx etc.) and integrated solutions using these.

We are also experienced front-end developers and can deliver the front-end of your website (CSS, (X)HTML and JavaScript) or work with your existing front-end developers to do so. We care about the overall finished product, whether that be back or front-end code. You can be sure that our attention to detail and care extends to the front-end of the site, and you will never find that carefully developed designs are destroyed by the clumsy handling of back-end developers!
