What
Developing Macintosh software is a passion for us - one that encompasses the entire process from coding and UI design, through to finally seeing our ideas living and breathing as a shiny new app. And that's just the beginning - we are always listening to our customers so we can continue to improve our applications to meet your needs.
We develop using Cocoa, Apple's advanced development frameworks, to make sure our apps are stable and fast running on Mac OS X, whether PowerPC or Intel based. Our software is designed for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger and 10.5 Leopard - so if your Mac hardware will run Tiger, it will run our apps. We utilise the latest Apple technologies, like QuickTime 7, Core Audio and CoreData.
Why
We think that messing about with Objective-C is one of the most enjoyable things in life... but then again, even our friends think we're a little strange.
Where
MachineCodex is physically located in northern New South Wales, Australia. Of course our dominion is rightfully the entire world.
Who
Mark Hill [mantis]
Mark codes heroically, akin to the way an ancient pictish warrior might hack and slash his way through a bloodthirsty melee. Except with Cocoa.
Alex Clarke
Alex makes things look nice. As you can tell, he's quite fond of the colour blue. He also hosts CocoaLab, a Macintosh developer resource site.
About our apps
Our apps are designed to purr like kittens on Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.x and above. Optimised for PowerPC G4, G5 and Intel Macs.
We use the latest technologies from Apple, but strive to support older hardware and operating systems. We aim to make our software powerful but stunningly simple to use.
About this site
The MachineCodex site is hand coded in TextMate and CSSEdit. It runs on a PHP templating system designed by Mark and adapted by Alex. HTML and graphic elements by Alex.
