Behind the scenes

There is a lot happening behind Haltu. We are working hard to bring you the services and products we are proud of. Here’s some of that action revealed to you. What we do, how we do it and of course why we do it that way.

Django project skeleton

We at Haltu use Django in pretty much every web-related project, and therefore it is good to have common starting point for all projects. The use of CI systems, centralized error logging, deployment and maintenance are much easier if all projects conform to the same standards. But the biggest benefit is that this project skeleton makes development really easy.

QML wrapper service explained

There has to be easier way to build and deploy QML apps to real devices than to build a binary for every single supported platform by hand, by the developer. As a proof of concept we created a web service which creates installation packages.
