Stylesheets are SASS based, using the Compass framework. The app can be run in the browser with Rack, or built for Spotify with a simple Rake task.</span></div>
<div><br style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">The real-time aspect of the client uses web sockets (provided by Pusher), and there are a range of other HTML5 features used (such as the file API for the real-time image preview).</span><br style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">
<span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">The API and Admin are a single Ruby and Rails app, using a MySQL database.</span><br style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">You will need to have advanced knowledge of MVC javascript, SASS and HTML5. The Ruby elements are a lot more simple, so a team with limited Ruby experience would still be able to pick this up.</span></div>
