About Text Flex

Running a non-profit organization can make one feel quite small in a big and capitalist society. But it can also be tremendously rewarding, with an enormous outreach. We can help you reach that!

We started Text Flex in 2003 as a text-based football game and the text editor we used to write it. The common theme was making text-oriented software more flexible and friendly. Now we design websites and develop custom software with the same principle in mind: helping you flex your thoughts and ideas to communicate them in fresh and professional ways.

Whether an advocacy group, medical organization, religious group, or other nonprofit, your group most likely has a mission you'd like to get across. Our goal at Text Flex is to partner with you to make that message known to your community and the world at large. We've been working with nonprofits since our inception and have a particular passion for your unique needs. We seek to provide you with affordable, personalized technology solutions.

So if you run a non-profit* and want your voice heard, we can help! We're in the business of making websites, but for us it's not just about business. It's about designing personalized solutions to give you a fresh and professional look.

* While we primarily serve non-profits, we serve individuals and for-profits as well.

Feature	Focus	Examples
Website Creation, from the Ground Up	From strategy and planning to the actual coding, we can create a website for you. Books, other websites, and consulting services can all provide with you with clues about building a website...but we can do that for you as one package. Our experience has taught us a lot about how to convey messages and create communities through websites. But our past experience won't stop us from making a personalized solution for your nonprofit.	In our design portfolio, you'll notice that we have created websites from scratch, built from existing sites, and leveraged our templates. We have also maintained sites for varying lengths of time based on clients' needs.
Custom Software Development for Your Desktop or Web App	Our software projects have been more than just fun—they've built up a codebase that we can use for novel software creation. Depending on the scope of your software need, we can design a desktop or web-based application for your internal use or community distribution.	Download a few of our open source apps.
Any Computer, Anytime	We can't stand a great program on Windows that can't run on a Mac. Or a website that can only be viewed in a particular browser. We design both our software and websites to be interoperable and platform-independent. That means that someone in your community will be able to use Safari on Mac to download software from your website, while someone else could do the same with Firefox on Windows, or Konqueror on Linux.	If you take a look at our apps, you'll notice that we have builds for Windows, MacOS, and Linux platforms. We also test all our websites on Firefox, IE, and Safari.
Fresh Graphics, Real Photographs	We create all our graphics from scratch, from the latest vector-graphics drawings to handheld photography. You won't find any clipart here.	Our artist's portfolio, in the traditional sense, is our websites themselves.
Licensed to You	Our goal is to give you control. The way we work is we create a website or software to you for a nominal setup fee. If in the end you like it, we transfer the rights to you for the cost of development. If it's not quite what you were looking for, we keep the rights, and you pay nothing.	We can custom design for you anything as small as a text plugin for the open-source/closed-source-friendly Text Trix editor to something as big as an entire health software project such as Dr. Scenario.
