Experience:

ExitToShell() has been developing original Macintosh software including a full-featured software installer and numerous UI controls on the Mac platform since 1998. Past projects have been built using Carbon, Cocoa and even Unix command-line techniques.

Do you require a unique Mac OS X application and don't have the time or experience to develop it yourself? Or do you need a custom UI control that isn't available in Carbon or Cocoa?

We can design and develop new software to match your requirements for rates lower than many other contract development companies. We can target Mac OS X 10.3 through 10.5 PowerPC and Intel with actual in-house Mac hardware (not via different SDKs on the same OS). We can also target the iPhone/Mobile OS X with our personal 16GB iPhone.

We also have a real high-end WinXP PC (not a virtualized BootCamp install) for Adobe Flex/AIR development, testing web pages and more.
