Web design

We make custom designs, always, in an elegant and pure spirit.

Drupal is an open-source content management system (CMS) that allows you to build different types of websites. We use it to build community platforms, institutional sites, e-commerce sites (Drupal commerce), web apps for tablets, etc.

Drupal is used massively by large state institutions, large companies or innovative startups.

Drupal is an ideal CMS to quickly design content/product listings with intelligent filters. The Drupal contributors community offers a huge library of free modules and themes. These allow you to upgrade an existing site without "reinventing the wheel" in terms of functionality.

Since Drupal 8, the CMS has been redesigned to work with object classes. More concretely, it welcomes in its application core all the power of the French PHP framework Symfony, a major player in the global technological landscape.

Drupal 9 is now based on Symfony 4 and Twig 2, which guarantees an optimal level of security within its core.

*We contributed to the development of the Berluti website under Drupal*.

E-commerce

Marketing designates all the actions that have the objective of anticipating, knowing and stimulating the needs of consumers with regard to goods and services to adapt production and commercialization to the needs thus specified.

At Belle Epoque, we are specifically interested in e-marketing, which is a discipline that groups together all the marketing and advertising practices that allow for the development of an Internet site's activity. We play on several levers in order to make our clients' websites known, first of all, thanks to natural referencing, paid referencing, content writing and social network animation. We also offer a customized tool to send targeted and relevant newsletters to customers.

E-marketing

For some web projects, we offer services in React development. With the React framework, we create powerful web applications. We have a great expertise on this technology and we have accompanied many companies of all sizes. We generally use Redux and GraphQL in addition to React.JS.

## THE BENEFITS OF REACT

Since 2013 Facebook has made public and open-source ReactJS, its javascript library. The latter is of course itself used within the social network, so an undeniable guarantee of quality. Today, more and more companies are switching to this technology to create beautiful websites or powerful applications.

Right now, you are looking at this article on our site designed with ReactJS. We exploit its potential to the maximum to offer both a unique browsing experience (smooth page transition, beautiful animations, advanced image preloader, fast loading, etc.) but also a quality natural referencing (isomorphic behavior that allows a page to be readable by search engine robots).

ReactJS runs directly on your browser (client side), so it is designated as a front-end technology. It allows to limit to the strict minimum the server calls and thus to reduce the often useless round-trips that we see on more standard technologies (display of a PHP page for example).

*We contributed to the development of the My Canal platform with React*.


## USE REACT WITH OTHER TECHNOLOGIES

In order to allow you to contribute your own content (administer your site yourself). We can offer you an adapted backoffice based on the content manager of your choice (traditionally WordPress or Drupal). Then we create custom gateways (API) to make the backoffice communicate with ReactJS.




It is a rather young language, derived from C and Pascal, developed between 2007 and 2009 by Rob Pike, Robert Griesemer and Ken Thompson for Google.

The designers wanted a modern language, simple and fast, as close as possible to the development standards so that users can quickly understand it, it was initially designed primarily to be used on backend infrastructures and to overcome the difficulties encountered within Google with other languages less suited to the challenges of the moment.

## Belle Epoque and Golang development, a great story
The first of its qualities is its simplicity, which allows a developer whatever his level to apprehend it quickly.

Its speed of execution, which makes its applications faster than with most other languages.

## Golang development
The code is automatically optimized and always formatted the same way. It is cross-platform and runs on any server, a very good point for portability. It supports multi-threading which Belle Epoque also uses in the field of artificial intelligence.

For all these reasons in 2019 it is the most requested language in training by developers.

Uses, predominance in mobile application and e-commerce
In fact it can do almost everything, it is often found in web applications, administrator interfaces, website design, server management, mobile applications ios and android, e-commerce

Many large companies and not the least use GO, to name a few Facebook, Bitly, Amazon Ibm, Netflix ...

Logo & Visual Identity

NodeJS is a language that runs from a server and is written in Javascript. Today it is of great interest to companies and developers because it offers a rich catalog of packages contributed via npm. It also reduces costs for the company (a single language for the front and back and fullstack javascript developers used to ecmascript and typescript)

It is increasingly used through new generation frameworks that allow to benefit from a speed of execution that is often superior to other server languages such as PHP. Indeed, NodeJS allows asynchronous requests (more simply said, we can perform several tasks at the same time).

Today, application infrastructures are developing to be more and more available (HA). NodeJS can be used to write microservices to segment the code by domain (user, product, etc.). This makes the application more robust (the application remains available even if one of the microservices is interrupted).

Wordpress

Our craftsmen are specialized in web development. Depending on your needs, we propose you the most adapted technology. We accompany you on the front-end and back-end development.

Today, with the emergence of new client-side Javascript libraries such as ReactJs, we can offer you the best in terms of UX and UI design with advanced custom developments. We attach particular importance to animations and performance of our websites.

## A website adapted for all screen sizes

We realize our sites in a responsive way so that it adapts perfectly to the various screens. If we make the design, we often think the design of the site in a mobile way first so that the experience is the best possible on smartphones.

## Performance

**The speed and fluidity of a site is a fundamental parameter in the success of a project ** Loading time is a vital objective that has a huge impact on the user experience. We are committed to delivering fast and efficient websites. We implement a maximum of optimization for performance such as lazyloading, caching, file compression...

The speed of a site is also a crucial parameter for SEO. Google gives more and more importance to this aspect.

## Optimized referencing

We optimize the code so that it is perfectly optimized for Google and that your website is naturally well referenced.

## Use of open-source technologies

We favor free open-source tools. The interest is twofold, on the one hand you have a site that can evolve thanks to the community (additional modules) and on the other hand you have a secure site thanks to the security tests that are carried out continuously by the maintainers of the modules contributed by this same community. We work mainly with the following technologies:

- WordPress: To create showcase sites, some platforms and e-commerce sites
- Drupal and Drupal Commerce : To build complex platforms, large content sites and e-commerce sites with many products
- React: To build web applications, Progressive Web Apps and rich websites
- React Native : To build Android and iOs mobile applications

Our craftsmen are specialized in web development. Depending on your needs, we propose you the most adapted technology.

We create unique web designs following the best UX practices.  We like simplicity so that our message is easily understood. 

The notions of UX (User eXperience) and UI (User Interface) are nowadays essential in the field of web design. However, they should not be confused. The UX is not the UI, but the UI is part of the UX.

UX is a complete process that includes content optimization, user testing, navigation data analysis, functionality optimization, site architecture design, customer satisfaction, ergonomic design through prototyping, and reflection on human/machine interactions. Finally, UX also includes UI, which focuses on visual identity, graphic design and the editorial charter.

Our customers appreciate it because it offers **an easy-to-use backoffice** that allows to contribute all kinds of content and to manage users finely.

*Simple and uncluttered WordPress backoffice to edit your content*.

The latter works with the PHP language. A robust and stable language that allows the site to be maintained throughout its life.

**We create custom sites** by reusing existing bricks (plugins proposed by the WordPress community). If the functionality is too specific, we do not hesitate to develop our own plugins.
