Agile Development

Welcome to simeonfranklin.com

I'm Simeon Franklin, an independent software developer specializing in web applications and dynamic websites. This is my site explaining my business - Simeon Franklin, Agile Development. Feel free to poke around: if you're just looking to contact me you can fill out my contact form, email me at simeon@simeonfranklin.com, or call me by clicking on the Google Voice flash widget above.

If you're just looking for code go here. And if you want to know more about what I do you can go to my about page or just keep reading...

So what's with my tag-line anyways? "Agile Development"? Does that mean I'm a former gymnast now writing software? And what's with all these pictures of people upside down?

The pictures are from flickr.com - images of people involved in the sport of parkour (basically think of the foot chase scene early in Casino Royale: parkour is basically urban gymnastics that involve navigating obstacles at high rates of speed). I'm not a practitioner of the art, but the images aren't here just because they look cool.

Based on my experience in the software industry I have some pronounced opinions about the way software projects should work to keep the the client (that's you!) happy and get the job done. Read my thoughts on the importance of agility and then check out my list of principles for web development.
