Typography of uncommon size is a fresh, bold web design trend which will gain more importance in 2022. This is a flexible technique that can be used in minimalist or maximalist designs, equally effective and can be adapted to many different styles. Maximalist is a space where brightness, contrasts, and elaborated tone and texture do the talking. Maximalist lets designers use their imagination to implement many different ideas filled with creativity. While Minimalist often provides safe and well-trodden path through neutral web spaces.

3. ONE PAGER WEBSITE

We have seen the growing popularity of the one-pager website that forgoes menus and navigation to the advantage of pure scroll navigation.  One-pager websites work perfect when their content is shorter, like a portfolio or the presentation of a single idea.

You will feel as if you are holding a flyer or reading a poster from these sites. All the data you want to look at is in one place and you do not need to navigate or search multiple pages. Continue reading

Payment Gateway Mauritius: Why should companies use a Payment Gateway

WHAT IS A PAYMENT GATEWAY?

A payment gateway is a user interface that authorizes the buyer to do the payment online where the seller accepts it. A payment gateway comes with various payment modes such as credit/debit card, net banking, UPI and Mobile Wallet. It can be considered as a middleman which carries out  a secure transaction of funds from the bank account of the buyer to the seller’s payment gateway.

HOW DOES PAYMENT GATEWAY OPERATES IN MAURITIUS?

Payment gateway relocates the payment acceptation or decline back to the customer.  A payment gateway validates the customer’s card details securely, ensures that the funds are available and   eventually allows merchants to get paid. Let us see in detail how it works:

  • A customer selects item from the merchant’s web site and adds them into shopping cart then click the check-out button.
  • The e-commerce platform will divert the customer to the secured payment gateway page where he chooses the payment methods and enters the payment card details.
  • The customer will have to wait for the issuing bank to request transaction authentication .
  • After authentication the transaction can be successfully authorized or it can be declined by bank or by Master card, visa, Maestro or American Express. This can happens if the card is expired, there is a shortage of funds or the credit limits is exceeding.
  • The bank fixes the money with the payment gateway which afterwards is settled with the merchant on a basis of the settlement period.
  • Once the payment is completed, the customer gets a message of confirmation for his order.

Web Design Mauritius – Le Responsive

Internet est devenu une partie intégrante de la vie quotidienne. Même en déplacement, de plus en plus de personnes surfent avec leur téléphone portable et leur tablette. Par conséquent, il est extrêmement important que la page d’accueil de tous les appareils soit clairement affichée et facile à utiliser. Une conception Web réactive est essentielle pour une présentation claire, mais également pour l’optimisation des moteurs de recherche.

L’importance du Responsive

“Responsive” se traduit de l’anglais par “react”. Traduit à la conception de sites Web, on pourrait dire que la conception “répond” à l’appareil sur lequel il est affiché. Lors de la création d’une page d’accueil en Responsive Web Design, il spécifie comment la page est affichée sur différentes tailles d’écran. Sur le moniteur, avec une résolution d’au moins 1024 pixels, l’utilisateur voit un site Web de construction classique, généralement avec quelques colonnes côte à côte.

Si vous naviguez la même page avec la tablette, qui a beaucoup moins de largeur, les colonnes s’adaptent de manière à obtenir une image nette. Encore plus loin, le contenu de la page doit s’adapter à son ouverture avec le smartphone. Dans ce cas, la page reconnaît la résolution et ne contient généralement plus de colonnes, mais trie le contenu.

Web Design Mauritius – Be Responsive

The Internet has become an integral part of everyday life. Even on the move, more and more surfed with mobile phone and tablet. Therefore, it is enormously important that the homepage on all devices is clearly displayed and easy to use. Responsive web design is essential for a clean presentation, but also for search engine optimization.

The Importance of Responsive Web Design

“Responsive” translates from the English as “react”. Translated to the web design, one could say the design “responds” to the device on which it is displayed. When creating a homepage in Responsive Web Design, it specifies how the page is displayed on different screen sizes. On the monitor with at least 1024-pixel resolution, the user sees a classically constructed website, usually with a few columns next to each other.

If the same page is called up with the tablet, which has significantly less width, the columns adjust themselves so that a clean picture develops. Even further, the content of the page must adapt when it is opened with the smartphone. In this case, the page recognizes the resolution and usually has no more columns, but sorts the content among themselves.

The new web trends 2018: Dare creativity

As everyone knows, the digital world is constantly evolving from year to year, and 2018 is no exception, far from it! Take advantage of the latest innovations and web trends to bring it up to date. Here’s what will mark 2018 in web design.

1. Animation and interactivity

As we all know, customer experience is becoming increasingly important and redefines sales standards and marketing strategies. Today, it’s no longer enough to praise the quality of your products and services to attract customers. It is now necessary to know how to capture the interest, and I would even say the imagination of customers, to offer them multi-sensory experiences that will captivate them.

This new desire on the part of customers to take part in personalized experiences has been heard by web designers and that is why the animation and interactivity of websites are at the center of their strategy.

Changing colors, shapes, position and even photos: everything is possible. Everything is done to offer customers and Internet users an artistic experience that will charm them.

One of the innovations that will likely resonate with many people is without a doubt the Parallax effect. The latter has the particularity of creating an effect of depth to the different pages of your site. But if you want to stay simple then bet on graphic effects and trends.

3D in your web pages

How to put interactive 3D images on a web page? What technical solutions for them to be visible by a maximum of Internet users, in other words supported by a wide range of browsers? How to implement them?

Several solutions exist, but none has yet emerged: technologies, equipment and standards are constantly changing in this area, so the choices are not obvious. To schematize, there are solutions that have proven themselves but which do not seem to have a future (Flash 3D, Java3D) and promising solutions based on standards but which are not yet universally supported (WebGL, CSS3 3D).

Flash 3D: proprietary solution (Adobe), user side requires the Flash plug-in, design side a good knowledge of ActionScript or go through a dedicated 3D Flash engine (Away3D, CopperCube …).

Java3D: open-source solution, Java API (not included in the JDK), user side requires the Java virtual machine, design side some knowledge of 3D programming or go through software like WireFusion.

The Flash plug-in and the JVM are installed on almost all (98%) desktop computers. Continue reading
