TYPO3 Agency Ulm

Ulm lies about 90 kilometres from our office in Stuttgart-Feuerbach, a good hour on the A8. Close enough for meetings on site when they achieve something, far enough that we do not schedule one for every small decision. For the kickoff, for editorial workshops and for sign-offs we drive over. aceArt is an official Silver Member of the TYPO3 Association.

TYPO3 from Stuttgart, for Ulm

Ulm is a city of science, and that shapes the websites built here. The university, the wider research presence, medical technology and commercial vehicle engineering have one thing in common: their content comes from specialists, not from a central editorial desk. Twenty departments write, each about its own subject, and none of them has time to attend a backend training session twice. So the structure has to be simple enough to explain itself and strict enough that the site still holds together.

Bilingualism comes on top of that. In research and medical technology, English is not a secondary version added at some point but an equal language with its own audience. TYPO3 keeps content and translation cleanly apart, shows editors where a version is missing, and can be set so that an untranslated text is not served as an empty page. For publicly funded institutions, binding accessibility requirements are added, and those start in the sitepackage.

What we do with TYPO3

For Ulm and the region we bundle our TYPO3 work into four areas:

  • TYPO3 development: custom Extbase extensions and interfaces to ERP, CRM or inventory systems
  • TYPO3 web design: custom sitepackages or a rework of existing templates
  • TYPO3 maintenance & security: ongoing care, security advisories, quick help when it matters
  • TYPO3 update installation: safe LTS migrations without surprises in live operation

The full picture of our TYPO3 work, from training through accessibility to SEO, is on the TYPO3 agency page.

Frequently asked questions

Do you have an office in Ulm?
No, our only location is Stuttgart-Feuerbach. We keep no address in Ulm. We take the hour on the road when a meeting in one room genuinely gets to an answer faster, and keep the rest deliberately lean.
How do we maintain German and English side by side?
Every page has a source language and any number of translations. In the backend you see next to each other what is translated and what is not. Whether a missing version falls back to the German text or does not appear at all is decided per area, because the sensible answer differs with the audience.
How do you train people who touch the backend only rarely?
With short sessions on whatever is coming up, rather than an all-round course of which nothing is left three weeks later. You also get a brief guide built around your own examples. Somebody who only writes news items never has to see the rest.
Do you meet digital accessibility requirements?
Yes, and it goes into the sitepackage rather than into a later addition. For publicly funded institutions we settle at the start which requirements apply in the specific case, because that depends on the responsible body. What we implemented is written down in a form that holds up when someone checks.
