Himerus Inc. understands the needs of your business, and our critical approach ensures you receive delivery of a website you will love to send your customers to for years to come.
Denver Web Development
Himerus Inc. offers advanced web development services to the Denver, Boulder, Lakewood, Littleton, Arvada, Westminister, Thornton, Northglenn, Cherry Creek areas, and other surrounding Denver metropolitan areas.
Himerus Inc. has been creating and maintaining web sites for over a decade, and has vast experience in working with projects from concept to launch and beyond with Website Marketing and Search Engine Optimization.
You may read more about some of the technologies we use to take our projects from idea to reality.
jQuery Development
jQuery is a fast, concise, JavaScript Library that simplifies how you traverse HTML documents, handle events, perform animations, and add Ajax interactions to your web pages. jQuery is designed to change the way that you write JavaScript.
Himerus Inc. recently began rapidly learing this new method that allows for fast Javascript development, interactive AJAX features like the ones used throughout our site, and our CMS, CMDRpro. Jake Strawn of Himerus Inc. has also recently been contracted by Apress to author a book on the topic of jQuery.
With jQuery, Himerus Inc. can develop the latest interactive web application features your site needs to stay ahead of the curve.
Denver PHP Development
PHP: a server side scripting language, and MySQL: a database management system are the two pieces that power all of our websites. By combining server side scripting with database storage of site data, tracking data, etc., these tools give us the ability to create features that extend the usability of your website.
PHP/MySQL is is used to build in features to our web development projects such as message boards, blogs, newsletter mgmt, content management, etc.
Anything you can imagine your site could do can be accomplished with our vast understanding of these two server side technologies.
Denver XHTML Development
The Extensible HyperText Markup Language, or XHTML, is a markup language that has the same depth of expression as HTML, but also conforms to XML syntax.
By using proper XHTML markup standards, Himerus Inc. is able to create a site that will render properly on multiple devices using multiple browsers including text reading software for the visually impaired.
XHTML 1.1 became a recommendation by the W3C on May 31st, 2001, yet you would be surprised to see the amount of "Web Development" firms that are unaware of the technology, and the benefits of creating sites using standards compliant XHTML.
Denver CSS Development
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a stylesheet language used to describe the presentation of a document written in a markup language. Its most common application is to style web pages written in HTML and XHTML.
CSS is used by both the authors and readers of web pages to define colors, fonts, layout, and other aspects of document presentation. It is designed primarily to enable the separation of document content from document presentation.
By using proper CSS, Himerus Inc. is able to create a site that can be greatly altered by creating a new stylesheet and not requiring any editing to your content.
CMDRpro Content Management
CMDRpro is our custom built Content Management System based on all the above technologies: PHP/MySQL/jQuery/XHTML/CSS. It is an an advanced, and easy to use system that enables users to fully manage their site through minimal training and available documentation on the features available in CMDRpro.
CMDRpro will be the future of most of our web projects where custom work is required, and has proven quite efficient at pluging in even small content sites to as well. Rest assured your site will stay ahead of the curve and easy to manage using our in house content management system.
Drupal Development
Drupal is a free software package that allows an individual or a community of users to easily publish, manage and organize a wide variety of content on a website. Tens of thousands of people and organizations have used Drupal to power scores of different types web sites.
Himerus Inc. has built several large content sites using Drupal. Drupal is a great system with flexibility. The administrative interface is more complicated, but allows very detailed modification of most key systems, and is quickly expanded with a large community of developers that create plugins that are free for use on other Drupal powered sites.
Wordpress Development
WordPress is a state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. What a mouthful. WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time.
Himerus Inc. highly recommends Wordpress for our clients interested in creating a blog. Drupal and CMDRpro both have blogging capabilities built in from the start, and can be used for a new project that includes a blog for ease of management, but Wordpress is the perfect option for adding a new blog to an old site quickly and efficiently.
