Your Agile DevOps Partner
DevOps is what happens when developers work hand-in-hand with the system administrators and other IT staff who are responsible for getting software into users' hands and keeping it running. Discussion about it frequently centres on tools, but its core is a set of practices that are best understood as answers to a handful of key questions.

Lean Discovery: Shifting from Outputs to Outcomes by Finding & Fixing Customer Pain
So many software development projects start with high levels of uncertainty. Some of it is explicit, you many not know exactly who the target customer is and what they want, and some of it may be implicit, you have a great idea but are uncertain about the technical risks of delivering the experience or what the state-of-the-art is capable of and, as they say, you don't know what you don't know.

From REST to GraphQL
I've been hearing about GraphQL lately, a library to create an API endpoint for your data.

In 2017, reading news reports about online security breaches has become commonplace. In the United States alone, there was a 40% increase in security breaches in 2016 vs 2015 and since 2013 hackers have stolen over 7 billion customer records.
You Don't Know What You're Missing
Companies once rose and fell based on the word-of-mouth they could generate around their products. Business must have gotten much more complicated with the mass consumption of radio and magazines.

Accessibility in Modern Web Applications
Today is Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD), a day to raise awareness about accessibility and encourage development teams to make accessibility part of their practice. At Rangle, this is something that we are striving to do. We have helped several of our clients build accessibly, but it still represents a competing priority for many software projects. What developers, scrum masters and product owners should know is that like any other new practice, the initial cost incurred while ramping up ultimately saves time and leads to a more robust outcome.
