We make web applications.
Base Secrète is a web design and development team specializing in Ruby on Rails applications, based in Geneva, Switzerland.
We operate our own web products, and help our clients launch and evolve their projects.
You can hire us together or separately. If we are not both available, you may change our minds, and we may recommend other developers.
Antoine is currently available.

RoRvsWild.com
Performances and reliability are the most important features of a web application. We built a tool to monitor our Ruby on Rails applications.
RoRvsWild is now used around the world by great developer teams.
Le Temps
We’ve been mandated to migrate Le Temps’ website to the Ruby on Rails publication platform we’ve been building for Heidi.news. It is now powering four different media websites, including Geneva Solutions and Kometa.
Sidekiq
We’ve redesigned the version 8 of Ruby’s fastest background jobs system using modern vanilla CSS to replace Bootstrap, resulting in a nicer, more accessible experience and 10x reduced files size.
RubyRubyRubyRuby.dev
RubyRubyRubyRuby offers a nicer documentation for Ruby, Rails and other selected Ruby gems. It uses RDoc, the venerable Ruby documentation generator, and a theme designed to enhance reading comfort and navigation.
Heidi.news
The prestigious journalists at Heidi.news asked us to rescue their Rails application and launch their ambitious media.
Two years later, they got acquired by Le Temps, one of Switzerland’s finest newspapers. We are still advising them and developing their website.
Sqily.com
For the High School of Pedagogy of Lausanne (HEP), we are building a skills validation platform for schools.
Sqily is particularly used in the training of future teachers, and in the mandatory schooling of Switzerland.
Open Source
Every day in our work, we use some fantastic open-source libraries like Ruby on Rails or PostgreSQL.
We are thankful and happy to contribute to the movement by sharing our own developers' tools.
