Message From the Ring Leader

We support the global business of Japanese companies and connect with engineers around the globe.

Digital Circus was founded in 1999, a year that marks a significant tipping point between generations.

Through the proliferation of the Internet, people all throughout the world became connected through a global network in real-time. This has created a world in which all of humankind's knowledge can be shared and a platform upon which a global consensus can be participated in.

As this process of globalization moves forward, focus has shifted to the individual, and markets focusing on economic activities that reflect individual values have grown rapidly during this time. Corporate activities, too, have been affected and with these vast market changes comes the necessity to change how marketing has traditionally been done.

Digital Circus utilizes the latest Internet technologies to support the global business of Japanese companies and connect with engineers around the globe. We have assembled a team of unique individuals who work tirelessly each day to break down the old and help create the new world of tomorrow.

The world created by the Internet revolution may not completely be seen in a single lifetime. However, I truly believe that the world born from the connection of all humankind will no doubt be a better one for the next generation.

Books and Publications

"TECHNICAL MASTER Beginner's iOS App Development　Swift Version"PRICE: 3,240 YEN (TAX INCLUDED) MARCH 2015 RELEASE

This book is mainly targeted at people who have some experience developing programs in any language. It was made with the intention of compiling everything you need to know in order to develop an iOS App using Swift into one book. Anyone without program development experience will also be able to learn basic iOS app development methods, simply by following the instructions. For those who are grappling with these new technical subjects for the first time, our goal is to allow you to go from the basics to complete mastery by the concept of "sticking with the basics to gain the skills you'll use for a long time", and by explaining things so that even a beginner can fully understand.

"Accelerating Web App Development CakePHP2 Standard Recipe 119"PRICE: 2,520 YEN (TAX INCLUDED) SEPTEMBER 2013 RELEASE

This reference book was created to explain the proper use of CakePHP functions from CakePHP2.0 to 2.4, the latest release as of September 2013. Friendly explanations in the form of a "recipe" help you understand the practical development code patterns necessary to write the most often-used CakePHP routines and other "tasty tidbits". "The libraries are huge, and I don't know what function to use!" "I get frustrated when I don't know how to solve a problem right away!" "I want to write as well as everyone else without wasting my time!" If you've ever said any of these things, this is the book for you.

"Introduction to Facebook App Programming"PRICE: 2,730 YEN (TAX INCLUDED) SEPTEMBER 2012 RELEASE

This is an introductory programming book for the creation of Facebook Apps that support the latest specifications. It explains techniques for creating Web Apps (PHP and JavaScript) that support billing and follow AppCenter guidelines, as well as increasingly important smartphone apps (iOS and Android). In addition, it touches on preparing and creating development environments, creating web apps for smartphone browsers, and how to build apps for the Amazon EC2 public server environment. Sample apps include a medical diagnosis app, a card battle social game, a paid fortune-telling app, a life log app, a travel album, an uploader for purikura-style photos, and more.
