Q: What influenced your chosen technical approach, and how did it go beyond past methods?
A: The biggest challenge here was timeline. We had five months to rebuild CAP from scratch. We also needed a strong, foundational solution that could grow, scale and accommodate all types of content from basic articles to detailed reports to data visualizations and more. Our solution is rooted in an atomic design system that’s easy to navigate, flexible to build and super scalable — so content drives the layout, not the other way around.When did you experience a breakthrough or an "a-ha" moment during this project?
The relationship between client and vendor makes all the difference. The scope and aggressive timeline would have killed us alone. But CAP was a partner to us every step of the way from discovery, through design, through development and launch. We truly functioned as one team, driving progress forward every day.
Q: What web technologies, tools, and resources did you use to develop this?
A: CAP's site was built on WordPress using a custom HTML, CSS and JavaScript theme. The site was entirely hand-coded using a select group of lightweight frameworks and libraries and designed to be highly accessible and optimized for search engines.
