We strive to become better every day. This year we’ve deepened our knowledge going through three new certifications:

• Programming in C# from Microsoft
• AWS Certified Solutions Architect
• Blockchain Developer

Now we can build even better products.

Whenever we have a spare minute, we spend it making open-source projects and UI/UX design concepts.

Let’s start with open source. Underneath, I’ve listed some of this year’s projects you can find on our GitHub profile.

It’s a computer vision based iOS application designed to track and change the color of objects. DetectionApp utilizes OpenCV library and is written on Swift.

This is the AR application based on Kotlin and ARCore. It overlays texts above the user’s head and tracks movements to make AR texts look more natural.

Except for GitHub, it’s available on Google Play.

This library is designed to create a blur effect for Android UI elements.

A library that allows creating user onboarding screens with parallax effect and smooth animation. As we started to actively deepen our expertise in cross-platform development, this project is based on Flutter.

We’re very proud of our Dribbble profile. It has tons of awesome shots and we almost reached 5K subscribers. Feel free to join our Dribbble and enjoy fresh design concepts.

Being a part of NUCC, we’ve participated in Norwegian-Ukrainian Business Forum. There were a lot of topics interesting for both potential clients and software development companies.

Also, we’ve been qualified to trade mission to Norway. It was held to connect representatives of business from Ukraine and Norway. The event was divided into such blocks as Cloud, AI, and IoT.

Except for these conferences, we also visited Business Innovation World, Oslo Innovation Week, and became members of the IAOP association.

The year 2019 was pretty rich in events. Let’s take a look at some of them.

We were partners and sponsors at the All-Ukrainian Programming Contest. It was a pleasure to see over 100 young talents fond of programming and willing to show their knowledge.

It was a year of design events at Cleverod! We hosted two UI/UX events for ITCP Community — Dnipro UI/UX Club #7 and Dnipro UI/UX Club #8. Participants were studying how to create simple interfaces for complex solutions on real-life examples.

What a year without the company’s birthday celebration? That was what we thought before throwing a Hawaiian-themed summer party!

Dnipro and Kharkiv offices gathered in one place to have the greatest time.

We love two things: active rest and spending time together. That’s why we decided to do both and held a kayaking tour. It’s our third kayak trip and we just can’t get enough of it!

It’s a pleasure when our clients come to visit us. This year we received a lot of them and would be happy to receive even more the next year!

We believe it’s important to support young talents. That’s why we hold six traineeships this year:

We constantly share our knowledge with others by publishing materials on media. This year wasn’t an exception.

Here are some of the articles we wrote:

• How to Set Up Live and On-Demand Streaming in AWS Media Services — Hackernoon.
• How to Simplify Your Android App Architecture — freeCodeCamp.
• How Can We Benefit From Using Blockchain Technology — DZone.

Hope you’ll enjoy reading them!

It was a great year for Cleveroad. Thanks to everyone who was with us this year.

More is yet to come in 2020!
