Technologies:
  • RESTful API. It allows you to completely, without errors and in the shortest possible time frames, change the user interface, add mobile applications for any operating system while the software and hardware part of the service will remain unchanged. Along with this, it is possible to have several user interfaces at the same time (desktop, mobile application), and it is also possible to change one interface without making changes to another (for example: change the design or js framework in the desktop part, while the changes will not affect the mobile application)
  • Doctrine ORM. The technology is based on the database access abstraction layer and allows you to replace painlessly the DBMS (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, etc.)

  • Docker. The module allows you to deploy a project in any environment seamlessly and quickly (Windows OS, Mac OS, Linux OS, etc.), you just need to install a docker in the operating system, the docker will provide compatibility and version control of the technologies used by the project on its own.
