Frontend

Our Frontend engineers primarily work with HTML, CSS/SASS, JavaScript and Javascript frameworks like (Angular, React and Vue).  Engineers work primarily on the page beauty, UI and frontend logic. Call APIs and display data on pages based on designs from the UI/UX team.

Our Fullstack Engineers are familiar with a combination of both backend and frontend from HTML, CSS, Javascript, Node, PHP, SQL.  They’re all about building a solution form the ground up. Including creating the database table/structure, writing the API, building and styling the page UI and logic then linking up with the API.
