That is what M.G. Web Solutions is about, the right tool for the right job. M.G. Web Solutions will listen to your needs, gain an understanding of you and your requirements, then propose and work with your capabilities to implement a solution.
After all, this is about your needs not ours!
MJ Buildvest has been a long time customer of M.G. Web Solutions. The first project undertaken by M.G. Web Solutions for MJ Buildvest, was a simple website rescue. This involved taking an existing broken and ugly website and making alterations in design, content and code, so that it functioned correctly while a new website was developed.
After the quick website rescue, a new website was planned, designed and implemented by M.G. Web Solutions, to provide a more long term website solution to the organisation, and allow it to grow and expand its product range and business, without running website restrictions.
The new website was developed in Python using the excellend pylons website framework. The new website included a cleaner fresher and more modurn design, and a new admin area where content could be added, altered (without having to engage a developer).
There is now a new project underway, to re-develop the MJ Buildvest website. M.G. Web Solutions hopes to release it shortly. It is inline with the new directions of the MJ Buildvest strategy.
Womo.com.au (formerly womow.com.au) is a "user generated directory where people share the experiences they have with the businesses" they use and frequent. The experiences can be both good and bad.
M.G. Web Solutions provided font-end web development expertise to womo.com.au. M.G. Web Solutions successfully re-developed and implemented a new design for the womo website, significantly enhancing the usability of the website. This included adding to and working with the existing php api, new and complex database queries, enhanced Ajax search and user interface capabilities.
Further to the re-design, significant testing and a re-usable front-end testing suite was developed to facilitate any further enhancements that may be made in the future, and to ensure that future develoments or api changes don't break existing functionality.
Womo.com.au is a php website that uses mysql, jquery(ui) and javascript.
CSS Converter is a small Ruby on Rails project produced to allow the conversion of SASS/SCSS styles to CSS and Minified CSS styles.
If you're trying to learn sass/scss styles it can be a great tool to use to get quick feedback on how your styles turn out.
It is also a great way to convert whole sets of legacy css styles into a format like SASS/SCSS so that it can be extended upon and re-coded in a more SASS/SCSS like manner
