Happy New Year!
We are excited to start the year by announcing a great company joining us as a global partner - OddBird!
OddBird collaborates with teams at mid-size and large companies to plan, design, and develop custom web applications and design systems. As thoughtful experts, they love to help their clients improve team workflow, lower maintenance costs, and solve problems with technology that help people. They provide the full range of services from brand design, user research, and project management, to Python on the backend, CSS/Sass on the frontend, and JavaScript.
OddBird was founded in 2008 by three siblings with a vision for human-centered software design and development on the web, especially focused on accessibility, performance, integrated design systems, and long-term sustainability. Since then, OddBird has become an industry leader – from our work on Django, Sass, and Susy, to the W3C, Mozilla Developer Channel, Object-Oriented UX, and in-depth conference talks on front-end architecture, workflow, component libraries, testing, and documentation.
Their clients get to know their tight-knit team on a first-name basis. OddBird is intentionally small, enabling them to move nimbly and integrate with teams at larger companies like Adobe, Google, Mozilla, and SRAM for a big impact. They all learn what makes each project special, and strategize together – keeping the backend, frontend, and design integrated for a shared understanding of each company’s goals and user needs.
OddBird staff frequently give conference talks and workshops, write articles and speak on podcasts to teach people how to create more resilient web applications and design systems – improving team processes, communication, site performance, and accessibility.
OddBird has supported us in the past for years through Patreon and we are excited to have them back as our Silver sponsor.
Thank you OddBird!
