Tools for Optimal IoT and Desktop Experiences

Trailhead Technology Partners works hard to ensure that your software gives your team the best experience possible when using IoT devices. Related to that, we rely on trusted tools for engineering optimal desktop performance and functionality.

.NET MAUI

This open-source platform is highly flexible and allows our team to build modern and performant applications for iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows. Xamarin is now called .NET MAUI, and it is an abstraction layer that manages communication of shared code with underlying platform code.  

Azure IoT

Azure IoT is a comprehensive platform provided by Microsoft for building and managing Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, offering a suite of services, including device management, data analytics, and secure communication protocols, to facilitate the seamless integration and operation of IoT devices in a scalable and secure manner.

WinUI

WinUI (Windows UI Library) is a user interface framework that empowers developers to create modern, fluid, and adaptive Windows applications, enabling seamless experiences across a wide range of devices and form factors.

Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)

Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is a powerful UI framework for building Windows desktop applications with rich, interactive user interfaces, offering features like data binding, vector-based graphics, and an advanced styling system for creating visually appealing applications.

Windows Forms (WinForms)

Windows Forms is a user interface framework in .NET that provides a simplified way to create desktop applications for Windows, offering a drag-and-drop design surface and a comprehensive set of pre-built controls for building intuitive and functional GUIs.

Electron

Electron is an open-source framework that enables developers to build cross-platform desktop applications using web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, providing a unified development environment for creating interactive and feature-rich software that can run on Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems.

Ionic

Ionic is an open-source framework for building cross-platform mobile applications using web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It offers a significant advantage in that it allows developers to create one codebase that can be deployed on multiple platforms, including iOS and Android, saving time and effort compared to developing separate native apps for each platform.

flutter

Flutter

Flutter enables our developers to build mobile apps that can deploy to multiple devices from a single codebase. Powered by Dart, Flutter code compiles to JavaScript, ARM, and Intel machine code so apps have fast performance on any device. We can use the platform to update code and see changes almost instantly, without having to worry about losing state. 

C#

C#

As a general-purpose, multi-paradigm programming language, our developers use C# to provide support for an array of software engineering principles (such as strong type checking, array bounds checking, detection of attempts to use uninitialized variables, and automatic garbage collection). This language is particularly useful in writing applications for both hosted and embedded systems.

Desktop and IoT Technologies That Improve UX

Trailhead developers have hands-on experience building custom IoT products that use C# and Windows IoT to communicate with cloud services to access a range of sensors and peripheral equipment. Along with that, our team writes Microsoft ASP.NET Core applications in C# and uses Dependency Interjection components to increase modularity, extensibility, and testability. The result of these tools and practices is an environment that is responsive and dependable for your end users.

Security You Can Trust 

A key feature for these technologies—and all others we utilize—is a high level of security. When you rely on IoT devices, you want to know they are secure. Our team starts with tools and technologies that we know and have deep experience using. More than that, our QA and testing processes, along with Agile development, allow us to provide you with predictable quality for all your custom software and applications.

Montage Portal

Montage Furniture Services provides furniture protection plans and claims processing services to a wide selection of furniture retailers and consumers.

Project Background

Montage was looking to build a new web portal for both Retailers and Consumers, which would integrate with Dynamics CRM and other legacy systems. The portal needed to be multi tenant and support branding and configuration for different Retailers. Trailhead architected the new Montage Platform, including the Portal and all of it’s back end integrations, did the UI/UX and then delivered the new system, along with enhancements to DevOps and processes.

They were able to not only significantly improve our web development architecture but our development and deployment processes as well as the functionality and performance of our portals. The feedback from customers has been overwhelmingly positive. Trailhead has proven themselves to be a valuable partner.
