Before Mintbit was born, we were building custom software for clients through our sister company, Slamdot.
We've been using Rails since version 1.0 was officially released in 2006, and we work exclusively on Rails projects.
We've been lucky to have worked with so many interesting businesses since 2005. Check out our glowing customer reviews.
We do challenging work and achieve incredible results. Our people are our greatest asset.
So much of our time is spent at work, and to be truly fulfilled, you have to believe you're doing great work. Burnout is the enemy of happiness, which we avoid by taking on clients who we know we'll bring great value. We also choose equipment, tools, and working conditions that provide our team with a rewarding experience.
It's best to avoid going overboard with excessive features, especially during the initial development cycle. We're here to help keep clients focused on functionality that will provide the most value, while achieving their goals. Sometimes that means suggesting that we table an idea for now, so we can get the basics really right.
By focusing on nailing the fundamentals of the problem a product is trying to solve, we're able to quickly get it in the hands of the people who will actually be using it. That's when we really get to test initial assumptions through real world feedback, and make changes early on, if necessary.
We'd rather be accused of communicating too much than not enough. It's our goal to be wholly transparent and radically honest with our clients, and within our company. By constantly keeping everyone updated every single day with our progress, expectations are always anchored in reality.
We strive for clean, elegant Ruby code that reads like plain english. Well-written code is easy to understand, debug, and maintain. One of the biggest reasons why people hire us is because of our attention to detail and the quality of our code.
Our strength as a team depends on our collective knowledge and experience. We encourage our developers to contribute to open source and explore new ideas and emerging tech. Useful knowledge is gained from the curious pursuit of something new and interesting.
We usually respond the same business day. You can also call us at (877) Mintbit weekdays 8-5pm EST.
