I like the site. Can anyone give a technical synopsis of how this has been made, perhaps the time frame and complexity of an app like this?

I'm assuming Kim hasn't coded this himself, anyone know if he outsourced to a company?



The Baboom developers page links to 2 open-source projects. One of the web pages, for Mout (https://github.com/mout/mout), is © linking to http://www.millermedeiros.com/ so presumably he's one of the devs.

Satazor is listed as a dev on Mout and also on the other OS project on the Baboom site, Bower (http://bower.io/).

If you really want to know ... http://instagram.com/p/iGuGNvLpwK shows pics none of which are Kimdotcom AFAICT.


There's details about the company behind it: http://baboom.com/developers/ although no word about who works there.

The design and implementation of the site are excellent, it's a shame that the discussion here focused on Kim. There's obviously very brilliant and passionate people behind the site. Possibly the same team that works on Mega.


Yeah that would be something. It really looks in the style of Goolge Music probably heavy with HTML5 and css. Doesn't look like there is flash.
