Different platforms suit different projects. So, when you're renovating an application, you’ll need to find the best platform to integrate into legacy environments, merge with existing workflows and business rules, and improve them. 

When you find the right project partner, you’ll be working with a range of experts in their field. You might not see or interact with all of them, but they’re essential to the success of your undertaking.

When you modernise an application, it should deliver new and improved functionality, work smoothly from day one and always be ready for new enhancements. In short, it should maximise your return on investment. So, before you start, consider these key principles of a successful application renovation.

With any renovation project, you must be organised and make the most of your resources. You have to ensure the end result is what you wanted, and that you deliver on time and on budget. In our experience, the best way forward is to break down your software project into the following stages.

Selecting a development partner can be a minefield. Each quote will be different, each partner will approach your project uniquely, and each one will have different credentials. It can become a time consuming and challenging task — so how do you know you’re comparing apples with apples?

I’ve been brushing up on my coding skills recently, jumping back into Codewars to refresh some forgotten muscle memory. But, the best way to improve skills quickly is to apply them in the real-world - and that’s where ASP.NET Zero comes in.  

We recently hosted a webinar where one of our discovery gurus, Damien, talked about recent work we did with a utilities company, and how important being agile and transparent was in the face of a challenging innovation impasse.

In late March, I was sent a batch of design files ending in .fig — the file extension for Figma. As a graphic designer turned brand creative manager who was wedded to Adobe Creative Suite, I was scratching my head as to what do with these files. I was also a bit perturbed that someone would send me such odd file formats. I mean, isn’t there some sort of digital decorum we must all abide by when sharing files?

Back in late 2017, a handful of Kiandra developers decided to try codewars.com - a website that challenges you to complete coding exercises in a variety of languages. We dug into it and had some fun, but as time went on, I ended up putting it to the side as something that I’d often think about, but never make the time for. 

The people that work in tech are a passionate and unique bunch. There’s tall ones, short ones, loud ones and quiet ones. And for over 25 years, Kiandra has worked with some of the most intelligent and unique people in the software industry. So, what better way to share and celebrate our passion for tech, than to chat about it with some of our favourite people?

Microsoft Gold Partner Kiandra is proud to announce the arrival of TeamJoy, the world’s first team polling app for remote teams.  

Here at Kiandra, we’re fighting the fake news. Not that kind of fake news, the fake news that a project is on track and everything is awesome.
