Overview
Grokker is building a client/server application using JavaScript, MongoDB, and various other technologies to enable people to dive into hobbies that they are passionate about through video. We develop using an iterative approach, though we are not dogmatic about methodology. Everyone in the company is responsible for coming up with the great ideas that will become part of our product. Don't expect to be handed a spec and go off and build it for months; instead, we will establish our goals together and support each other to reach them.
We believe in good code quality and building for the long term. We enforce coding standards and have regular code review sessions in order to maintain code quality, share knowledge, and reduce duplication of effort. Our system is in built in JavaScript on the client (for web browsers, tablets, and phones) and on the server (using Node.JS).
