What is DevExtras and what does it offer?
Updated
DevExtras is a UK-based software development site that offers .NET development tools, mobile apps, and consultancy/outsourcing services. It is relevant if you are a .NET developer looking for a free decompiler, someone interested in voice-related mobile tools (including speech therapy use), or a business needing capacity tracking or custom development work.
What DevExtras provides
The site groups its work into three areas:
- .NET Development Tools — code protection and decompilation.
- Mobile Software — apps for Android and iOS.
- Consultancy — available for consultancy and outsourcing work.
Products and services
CodeReflect
A standalone, free .NET decompiler that converts .NET assemblies to C# or VB.NET. It is made available to the .NET development community, so it is the main draw for developers who need to inspect or recover source from compiled assemblies.
Voice Tools
A mobile tool that analyses your pitch and volume in real time. It is aimed at speech therapy patients and is currently used by voice therapists around the world. It is available for iOS and Android.
Rate My Voice
A social experiment where you can listen to and rate other people's voices, or submit a sample of your own voice and ask others to rate it. It is available for iOS and Android.
Visitor Count
An app to keep track of the number of people in your shop, pub, or other venue so you do not exceed your maximum capacity.
Consultancy
DevExtras offers a consultancy/outsourcing service. If you have a project you would like them to get involved with, you send an email with details about the project and they will get in touch. All development is done in the UK, and pricing depends on the number of man days required for the project.
