Context
A journalism and storytelling platform requiring expressive layouts, rich motion, and editorial flexibility—backed by a fully custom publishing system rather than an off-the-shelf CMS.
What made it non-trivial
- High visual and interaction demands alongside strict performance requirements
- Accessibility considerations across dynamic, content-heavy layouts
- Custom editorial workflows tailored to the publication’s process
- Long-term content evolution without redesigning the platform
What we did
We designed the CMS architecture, content models, and frontend rendering system to balance creative freedom with technical constraints. The goal was to enable editors and writers without introducing fragility.
Outcome
The result was a fast, expressive platform that supported complex storytelling while remaining accessible, performant, and maintainable. Editorial teams gained flexibility without sacrificing reliability.
