Software. Tailored to your Website.
We believe your custom software should work with your website. We build custom applications in Phoenix and Elixir and bake them right into Web Village — member portals, registrations, dashboards — with the accessibility, security, and easy editing already there. Crazy ideas welcome.
Start with understanding
Northern Village builds custom software by having an excellent understanding of processes within the social benefit sector. We first sit down and investigate together, what we are trying to build, as well as the expected outcomes. As needed, we talk with stakeholders and/or users ensure the flow of the software design and logic meets everyone’s needs, and to make your lives easier.
Custom software in your website
We are excited to bring our software development experience to a platform that allows us to create custom software within your website. Your website can be the front end to your custom software, resulting in a smooth experience for your users. Further, we are always looking for ways to take unique software in the social benefit sector and see how it can be more widely used.
We are there for you
We are committed to supporting you. Our software of choice is Phoenix / Elixir, which is know for its high performance, ease of building real-time, interactive features, with a focus on maintainability and scalability. Its functional programming paradigm promotes clearer code, leading to fewer bugs and easier maintenance over time. We support you and your users, so you can support your community.
