Honoring National Nonprofit Day
In honor of National Nonprofit Day on August 17th, Happy Cog released a statement in support of our partners at Eden Reforestation Project. We also made a donation to our partners at Technovation in the name of our Women’s Networking Group, which was chosen by the group because we wanted to support our fellow girls/ladies.
We Missed Each Other!
The Happy Cog NYC crew had the pleasure of getting together this summer at our first (of many) in-person gatherings! It was great to be able to see each other in person (some of us for the very first time!) after a crazy year and a half.
Case Study: Wilson Sonsini
Happy Cog partnered with Wilson Sonsini, one of the top Silicon Valley law firms, to modernize their brand and redesign their website. Alongside Rubenstein Tech, we created a result that combines cutting edge style with thoughtful and structured content to accurately convey their rich, storied history and their ongoing work with innovative startups.

This feature is super handy, but what if you are working on a team and don’t want each developer to have to set up an ssh key and remotes? Read on.
