We would like to work with students to develop and re-skin our existing WordPress website that is easy to maintain while providing an appealing interface for users.
This will involve several different steps for the students, including:
- Researching Wordpress stacks, themes, plug-ins, site-building tools and their associated advantages / disadvantages.
- For instance, would creating headless Wordpress with Vue.js or efficient back-end caching be a better approach overall?
- Working with our internal team to build the re-designed back-end and front-end of our website.
Bonus steps in the process would also include:
- Testing prototypes with customers and refining ideas with feedback.
Students should have a moderate understanding of PHP and Wordpress, and a basic understanding of HTML, Javascript, CSS, ux and ui etc.
By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:
- Understanding of modern advanced Wordpress website development
- Recommendations for website maintenance
Bonus steps would include:
- Testing the website with users and making improvements based on user input
Final deliverables should include
- A website prototype.
- A final report.
Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:
- Our current products and website design
- Our customer and industry insights
- Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
