Questions people ask

Do you take over existing codebases?
Yes. The scoping sprint starts with a written assessment of what is there, what we would keep and what we would replace.
Who owns the code?
You do, from the first commit. Repositories and cloud accounts are created under your organisation.
Do you build mobile apps?
Yes. React Native and Expo for Android and iOS. Our own Aqua Core OS app is on Google Play.
What happens after launch?
A monthly run retainer covers on-call, updates and small changes. You can stop it with 30 days notice.
