  • UK Firm Signs On to Resell looksoftware Modernization Tools

    October 23, 2012 Alex Woodie

    Astech, an IT consultancy based in central England, has signed a partnership agreement with IBM i application modernization tool vendor looksoftware to resell look’s software across the U.K.

    Astech specializes in providing IBM i and Microsoft expertise to private companies and government institutions in the U.K. The company says that its blend of IBM i and .NET programming skills enables it to take on client projects involving Web and mobile extensions to IBM i applications.

    Some of those Web and mobile projects will now bare the mark of looksoftware, the Australian developer of IBM i modernization tools. Looksoftware has been an early adopter of IBM‘s Open Access technology, and has integrated it into its product lineup, which supports everything from mobile devices to Windows clients.

    “Astech’s knowledge of both the platform and the U.K. market is extensive, and we see this as a real benefit not only to the organizations with whom they work directly, but to the wider looksoftware user community,” states Paul Hodgkinson, looksoftware’s European channel manager, in a press release.

    Embrace VS Code for IBM i Development

    The IBM i development landscape is evolving with modern tools that enhance efficiency and collaboration. Ready to make the move to VS Code for IBM i?

    Join us for this webinar where we’ll showcase how VS Code can serve as a powerful editor for native IBM i code and explore the essential extensions that make it possible.

    In this session, you’ll discover:

    • How ARCAD’s integration with VS Code provides deep metadata insights, allowing developers to assess the impact of their changes upfront.
    • The role of Git in enabling seamless collaboration between developers using tools like SEU, RDi, and VS Code.
    • Powerful extensions for code quality, security, impact analysis, smart build, and automated RPG conversion to Free Form.
    • How non-IBM i developers can now contribute to IBM i projects without prior knowledge of its specifics, while ensuring full control over their changes.

    The future of IBM i development is here. Let ARCAD be your guide!
