Highlights from Recent Projects
ShakaCode was contracted by a payment operations company to manage their dependencies. The company needed a way to regularly review and merge dependabot PRs to keep their dependencies up to date with the latest security and bug fixes. ShakaCode was chosen due to their Ruby-on-Rails expertise which they had previously demonstrated when replacing webpacker with shakapacker. The project involved regularly reviewing dependabot PRs across multiple Ruby repositories, evaluating the risk of the updates, and deciding if they were safe to merge or required additional work. The company followed a referral to ShakaCode and added a second project after the first one was successfully completed.
The book summary platform, Blinkist, hired ShakaCode for web development. The goals were to enable the use of their Web Component Library across all projects, resolve security issues due to outdated dependencies, and migrate their Rails Application from Webpacker to Shakapacker. ShakaCode, with a team of 2-5 employees, successfully migrated the long-running Rails application from a legacy Webpacker-based setup to the latest version of webpack using their OpenSource library Shakapacker. This enabled Blinkist to use their Web Component Library across all projects and get rid of various outdated dependencies that were causing security issues.
A venture capital firm hired ShakaCode for app development. The firm wanted to upgrade the frontend and backend packages for one of their core apps. They found ShakaCode through an online search and chose them because of their high ratings and good value for cost. ShakaCode's team of 2-5 employees helped the firm update their FE packages and begin Ruby on Rails updates to help them get on the latest Heroku stack.
