GeckoLabs | Edinburgh, UK OR London, UK | PHP Engineer

We're growing fast, and need to hire more PHP developers to join our team in either London or Edinburgh.

Experience with Laravel is a must as you'll mainly be working to improve and enhance our API. Any experience of AngularJS would be beneficial but not essential.

Apply: http://www.geckolabs.co.uk/jobs/php-software-engineer/

Re:First Impressions Using React Native on Friday February 06, 2015 @02:05PM (#9010855)
As someone who has developed many apps using Appcelerator Titanium, I am looking forward to getting my hands on this to see where the differences lie.

I know that it has taken Titanium years to mature, so I wonder if it will take a similar amount for React to iron out the bugs - I'll be surprised / pleased if they hit the ground running.

Hopefully they'll hurry up and make it public!

Woah, that site react's badly to that banner being placed on it.
Great to see this finally become public. I've been a huge supporter of Mark from the beginning of his journey.

You've got to give this a try, the quality & accuracy of the leads produced go above and beyond what you'd think possible.

It looks like a modern day dreamweaver, or front page, no doubt a hell of a lot better! Will definitely need to give this a try.
Re:Send payouts with Stripe on Wednesday June 05, 2013 @01:32PM (#5827167)
Taking over this thread talking about your service is pretty awful - surely you can announce your features in your own right rather than riding on the back of Stripe's name?
Re:You should be a mentor on Thursday April 25, 2013 @08:21AM (#5606740)
Great post!

I've started a number of businesses over the past 10 years, first of which was when i was 17, i've learned so much over this time, but had dismissed it as general knowledge.

Recently I took part in an accelerator here in the UK and one of the things I enjoyed most was offering advise to other teams, even just on simple things like Tax/Vat etc. I really didn't appreciate that much of the knowledge I've amassed over the past 10 years was valuable to people in the early stage of a new business.

I'm hoping to be invited back to that accelerator as a mentor this year, and I'd hope I can do this for other accelerators too as it's extremely rewarding, I'd almost say I find it more rewarding helping others than building my own startup!

It's really great to see the evolution of a game like this, i agree with other commenters that it would be great to see other game developers do this.
Re:The startups and services behind Close.io on Wednesday February 20, 2013 @03:21AM (#5249474)
Great post - i've been playing with your product and the integration of telephony is really smart, it's one of the areas salespeople spend a lot of time manually typing in calls into their CRM.
Looks great, i run a mobile app agency and we are forever having issues due to developers not testing adequately, having some external company test would be really useful!

Ask HN: What currency is best for a UK startup to charge in?
