Restructured Text API
We love reStructuredText here at Project Fondue; so we've been experimenting with an reStructuredText API running on Google App Engine. This allows you to test converting your restructured text files to HTML or JSON - including linking conversion of RST docs directly.
If you're new to restructured text take a gander at the reStructuredText docs

CSS Sprite Generator
This tool provides a quick and easy way to create CSS sprites. Using sprites can help to cut down HTTP requests which will improve the performance of your web sites.
Project source code available on Launchpad.

Favicon Generator
Creating favicons can be a pain. Making sure they work cross browser, even more so. Upload any image to this tool and it'll generate a favicon with instructions for use on your web site.
Feeling artistic? The built-in editor provides the facilities to draw one from scratch.

Unix Permissions Calculator
Remembering the syntax for the chmod command can be tricky. Whilst it's easy to remember the basics, do you know the difference between setgid, setuid and the sticky bit?
The Unix Permissions Calculator provides a way to understand permissions more fully as well as provide a resource to point colleagues to when you want to explain the use of permissions in documentation.

We're passionate about web development and are well placed to help you with all aspects of your project from developing standards compliant, fully accessible interfaces to complex server side applications and components. Our experience working on some of Europe's busiest web sites also places us in a strong position to advise you on site performance, security, internationalisation and localisation issues.
We work the way that suits you. If you'd like us to be involved in your project from inception to delivery that's great. If you'd simply like us to provide additional development resource for an existing, ongoing project that works for us too.
