The Plant’s engineers are among the best in the industry: experts at designing and developing web applications, including content management systems, e-commerce systems, and social networks.

We measure success not by completion of a spec, but by how our work addresses all of our clients’ goals, from user experience to profitability.

Meet Makoto

Makoto has developed many open source software programs, is a prolific writer for Japanese technical publications, and is a frequent presenter in the Japanese tech circuits, presenting at conferences for Python, Ruby, Java, Perl, and, well… whatever gig is in town, you’ll likely see him at the podium.

The most popular open source project he has authored is Erubis, the template engine for Merb and, hopefully soon, Rails. He has also made the fastest template system on the planet and a bunch of other stuff. Check out some of the links below.
