Accessibility

The purpose of web accessibility is to remove barriers and bring the information, services, and functionality of the web to as many people as possible so they can be included in the global internet community. Andromeda includes web accessibility as a first-order concern in all of their products and they bring this same commitment to their clients as well.

While just 10% of websites support proper accessibility (AbilityNet, 2018), one billion people globally live with disabilities (The World Bank, 2019). This is a tremendous discrepancy that marginalizes hundreds of millions of people.

We include Accessibility in everything we do, from design to implementation to quality assurance. Together, we can make the web a better place for everyone, by improving the accessibility of your websites and web applications.

We love Accessibility so Much, we Wrote the Book on it.

Andromeda Knows CSS

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are a web technology that allows layout, theme, and style to be applied to a document. In most common cases, that document is a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) file and the rendering is performed by a web browser.

Often, CSS is seen as a design tool since it allows the author or designer of a web page to determine the visual look of that page. This control gives CSS a direct impact on both usability and accessibility.

At Andromeda Galactic, our expert team helps you maximize your site or app’s CSS so that your product is pleasing to use, it’s also accessible, usable, and maintainable long-term.

Design

When you create a product or service, it's important to plan through the impact of its design. Is it easy to use? Is it available to all? Is it memorable? Will people want to use it again? Our team keeps look and feel, work flow, and branding elements top of mind when designing your website, app, or product.

We can help you launch a new product with the following services:

  • User Experience (UX) Design
  • User Interface (UI) Design
  • Quality Assurance
  • Branding (Logos, Color Palettes, Typography)
  • Marketing (PR/Media, Social Media, Websites)

Have you ever heard the phrases “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” or “I like what I like” when someone is discussing your design? Or maybe design is your arch nemesis and you dread it. Too often design is only looked at for aesthetic and visual appeal, while purpose, goal, and usability are ignored.

At Andromeda, we believe that many features of good design are objective, not subjective, and can be either qualified or quantified with predictable results.

When we work together, the designs we’ll create for you will delve into the psychology, physiology, and mathematics of design principles for three key purposes:

  • Making conscious design choices which reflect your brand
  • Improving your user experience
  • Improving accessibility through design

Firebase

As a Google Cloud Partner, Andromeda is well versed on Google's cloud infrastructure, including Firebase. We not only use Firebase for our clients, but for the last 5 years our own products have been built on the Firebase platform including FlexePark, Cirrostyle, and Lore Link. Because of this expertise our CEO has been awarded as a Google Developer Expert (GDE) in Firebase and is an internationally recognized expert in Serverless architecture.

While Firebase is simple and friendly to get started, there is still a big learning curve when a team adopts their first serverless platform. We help our clients hit the ground running by building Prototype and MVP applications, working alongside their team as consultants, or even providing introductory or advanced training on Firebase and Serverless architecture.

We're often asked to explain exactly what Firebase is. In short, Firebase provides the backend platform you need to support your PWA or SPA without the need to provision hardware, and you only pay for what you use. It can complement your existing API layer or can be a full backend replacement.
