Rapid Application Development

Rapid Application Development

Build better software, in a fraction of the time

Rapid Application Development benefits our customers in a number of ways: shorter development times, reduced costs, and fewer bugs. Since the early 90s, iterative development and prototyping have proven themselves — and today RAD applies those proven expediting methods to modern application development.

Why RAD

How we accelerate development — without cutting corners

Template

Project templates

A scaffolding engine quickly creates common displays and back-end functionality — listing entities, sorting, filtering, adding, modifying and validation. It automates the repetitive CRUD code, freeing developers to focus on what makes your application unique.

Libraries

Common libraries

A collection of shared libraries covering messaging, validation, logging, file management and search — proven components, ready to reuse.

Quality

No licence lock-in

The scaffolder produces high-quality, non-bespoke code any developer can use — without needing the scaffolding engine or licensed components.

A tool our developers love

Easily adaptable for every developer

All DevSight developers receive thorough training in the guidelines we follow when building reliable, consistent software. Regular meetings review past knowledge and introduce fresh ideas and features. Combined with a common wiki of best practices and crucial reusable code repositories, this ongoing professional development lets us create applications in a fraction of the time it would normally take.

The benefits

What Rapid Application Development delivers

Speed

Quicker development times

Common database interactions and basic activities — adding and viewing records, lists, searching, filtering — are pre-coded, so your application is delivered sooner.

Planning

Uncompromised planning

Moving quickly never means cutting corners. We combine our meticulous prototyping approach with RAD techniques to give you a carefully produced, comprehensive blueprint for your new system.

Cost

Lower costs

With no requirement to write simple code from scratch, the cost of the project as a whole is greatly reduced.

Quality

Standardised coding that eliminates bugs

Our automation tools generate foundation code according to a set procedure — uniformity means fewer problems and simpler long-term support.
