Products
Along with consulting work, Wilcox Development Solutions also develops some applications for end users. Products that we have worked on include:
|
Email Form Relay Quick, simple, contact-us service for static sites More Info As web developers we find ourselves coding "Contact Us" forms a lot. In addition to having the form to write, we also have the backend logic to deal with: gather up the TO information, from, subject, body and send it off. Email Form Relay takes care of sending the email from this point - without your users knowing that there was another site involved |
SessionNotes Session Notes is a time tracking application made for obsessive note-takers, responsible adults, contractors, and anyone else who is frustrated at the lack of reporting detail in other web based time trackersMore Info Some programmers find it helpful to keep notes while working, above and beyond the notes they put on their invoices. Todo items, scribbles to map out some functionality, general stuff. Scientists do this too: think lab notes. Traditionally, programmers have used paper notebooks, assuming their computers might restart at anytime and lose their notes. Session Notes’s focus is to make it easy, and 100% reliable, to keep these notes on your computer. Keeping these on your computer means they are easily searchable, and Session Notes also seeks to cut down time it takes to create an invoice based on these notes. |

HRLFEditOSX Edit your Helix collection's HRFL edit with drag and drop simplicity More Info One of the mechanisms Helix has to avoid collection damage is the Recover File, the placement of which is controlled by the HRFL (Helix Recover File Location) resource specified in every Helix collection. HRFLEditOSX lets you edit this resource easily, without ResEdit. |
Experienced Man's Guide Booklets
Over the years we've bought a lot of programming books and refer to them often. When we discover something cool, or where the book is outdated or wrong in a particular situation, we write this information down in the book itself. We call these Experienced Man's Guides.
Now these guides are available for purchase in .PDF documents.
These Guides could be printed out and inserted into the appropriate pages in the appropriate book (which is what we suggest), or just viewed on the screen.
This is a new service and we'd love your feedback on how to make this better. we intend to release these with updates and new versions, just like software. This is a very 1.0 idea - help us make it better by suggesting ways we can make it better!
