This is a partial list of technologies, libraries and other tidbits we used in creating this beautifully planned and executed website. If you weren't already, after this read, you will amazed at our spectacular web design savvy and Internet prowess.
Movable Type Pro 4.261
Since we are lean and mean, our content management system has to provide an efficient way to build and manage our own website while seamlessly managing a blog at the same time. Movable Type 4 has the goods. All the content and article pages on neoverve.com are designed and built using the Movable Type 4 content management system. More on Movable Type
Web Standards
Web standards is a general term for the formal standards and other technical specifications that define and describe aspects of the World Wide Web. In recent years, the term has been more frequently associated with the trend of endorsing a set of standardized best practices for building web sites, and a philosophy of web design and development that includes those methods. We follow these methods when it comes to layout, design and programming. Visit webstandards.org
MooTools JavaScript Library
We wanted some cool-smoothy-slidy goodness on the site - but didn't want to force your browser to download tons of stuff to do it - we wanted our site to be lean and mean just like us. MooTools did just that - a designer and a programmer can make some truly beautiful code with this library. Visit mootools.net
FancyZoom
Designed to view full-size photos and images inline without requiring a separate web page load, FancyZoom's raison d’être (French for "raisin-determination") is providing a smooth, clean, truly Mac-like effect, almost like it's a function of Safari itself. More on FancyZoom
Microformats
Designed for humans first and machines second, microformats are a set of simple, open data formats built upon existing and widely adopted standards. You will find this technology being used on our "About" and "Contact" pages respectfully in a downloadable vCard for your address book. Visit microformats.org or Microformats icons
