New York City Department of Transportation Drupal Responsive Designed POC Appnovation worked with the New York City - Department of Transportation to deliver a fully responsive, retina display compatible proof-of-concept (POC) built on the Drupal platform. The design concept was inspired by walking the streets of New York City. In such a complex and busy environment, people rely on simple, painted & chipped away signage on roadways to maneuver safely from A to B. Road signage is globally recognized, and a proven-to-work system that simplifies complex process flows across a wide spectrum of demographics. This is why we felt that this design concept would work great sitting on top of Drupal. KOBO Instant Reader App Kobo Inc. is one of the world's fastest-growing ereading services offering more than 2.5 million ebooks, magazines and newspapers - and counting. Recognizing the rapidly changing global app market Kobo, with an existing ios application, needed a cross-platform solution accessible by their international clientele. Using SproutCore, Appnovation helped Kobo build the Instant Reader application for HTML5 and Windows 8. In addition to Kobo's previous application capabilities, HTML5 and Windows 8 application users have: access to their complete libraries, including an Offline Mode so books can be read without an internet connection Bookmarking (both on and offline); the ability to make new purchases within the application; and, a new and improved interface. Elle DECOR LOOKBOOK APP The Elle Decor Lookbook App has been awarded Acquia's prestigious Partner Site of the Year 2013 in the Mobile category. Elle Décor is considered the ultimate guide to decorating and design. As a companion to their Lookbook website, the magazine chose Appnovation Technologies to develop a mobile app for the Apple ipad with dynamically generated sharing websites. Both the backend, API, and the dynamic sharing websites were all developed in Drupal and thanks to the Drupal backend, Elle Décor is able to: add new Feature LookBooks; publish new content; and, offer design and product companies the ability to sponsor certain room types or the entire application without having to resubmit the app to the App Store.
