Development
Five Jars acknowledges the importance of user-centric development. We do not use tech language and see our clients as partners. This enables us to view every project as a long-term engagement which will foster your business success. We strongly advocate for transparent development cycles.
Five Jars is renowned to be at the forefront of development trends and our developers are among the most experienced and most senior ones on the market. But we are more than that. It is our desire to strive for user-centric solutions and identify opportunities for our clients which enables us to create the most sophisticated solutions for our customers.
Everything starts with a team
Here at Five Jars, we are convinced that the right team and corporate environment are key to our clients’ success. Our teams are interdisciplinarily organised and consist of developers, marketing experts, design gurus and many other professionals leading in their very own field of expertise. It is this combination which allows us to deliver solutions which not only offer state-of-the-art custom code but also integrate marketing, strategy and UX/UI from the very beginning. Our interdisciplinary teams provide you with out-of-the-box, all-inclusive and future-proof solutions made to make you thrive.
Five Jars shapes its own environment
Our developers do more than simply provide solutions to our customers. Five Jars’ developers are core contributors to the Drupal and JavaScript community as we believe that collaborating with other developers not only creates the most favorable environment but also fosters the technology stack itself to become as efficient as possible. We are convinced that collaborating publicly allows us to demonstrate and showcase our expertise while also testing our solutions through an open community. While not every project is born to become a publicly available repository, we are proud to give back to the Drupal and JavaScript community.
We make innovation accessible
Five Jars creates an environment where all companies, independent of their size, can access and profit from technological innovation. Whether it is a digital signage solution or an extensive freemium video platform, we advocate for a wide accessibility of technology and reduce barriers such as high development costs. Our own rapid prototyping framework allows us to rapidly create a minimum viable product to test and to receive feedback on. The short feedback loops allow us to develop state-of-the-art applications and websites in an efficient way. This, ultimately, reduces your development costs significantly.
Open-source software to lower your ongoing costs
However, rest assured – this is no downside when working with Five Jars. Since its founding, Five Jars’ developers have been core developers of the Drupal community, which makes us the ultimate experts in our field. The advantage for you, however, is that you avoid any lock-in, long-term licensing agreements which will cost you a fortune over the years. To underline that, we do not lock you any way into an ongoing collaboration with Five Jars as all our custom code is following best practices and is well documented. This allows you to choose your after-sales service provider independently from our development services. Why do we do that? Frankly, we are sure that our expertise and agile project management will convince you to stay with us long after the initial project is completed.
Rigorous quality assessment
Five Jars follows best practices in development, including strict adherence to coding standards, clear documentation, and a design process that is responsive at its core. To ensure highest quality standards, we use a manifold approach to quality assessment consisting of code review by internal developers that are not part of the project team as well as automated quality testing and external usability testing.
