About Oire
OIRE: Optimization and Implementation, Rapid and Efficient
We're André and Nathalie Polykanine, a husband-and-wife development team based in Strasbourg, France. Together, we're reshaping how businesses approach inclusive software development.
Why We're Different
André has been blind since birth. This isn't a limitation—it's our superpower. Every day, we navigate the digital world with screen readers, keyboard shortcuts, and assistive technologies. We don't guess what works; we live it.
This unique perspective, combined with decades of development experience, means we catch issues others miss and create solutions that genuinely work for everyone.
Our Philosophy
Great software isn't about accommodating different users—it's about designing experiences that are naturally inclusive. When you get it right, everyone benefits:
- Power users get keyboard shortcuts that speed up their workflow
- Mobile users get sites that load instantly
- Search engines get clean, semantic code to index
- Screen reader users get logical navigation that makes sense
- Everyone gets software that just works
Technical Excellence
We bring enterprise-grade skills to every project:
- Web: Symfony, PHP, ASP.NET C# for robust, scalable applications
- Desktop: .NET 8+ and C# for native Windows experiences
- Standards: Expert-level WCAG 2.0/2.1/2.2 implementation
- Testing: Real-world validation with JAWS, NVDA, and other assistive technologies
Our Promise
We deliver what we promise: optimization and implementation that's truly rapid and efficient. No lengthy consultations, no overcomplicated solutions—just clean, effective software that works for your entire user base.
