Experience

Travelic—Travel Agency Website

Travelic is a world travel agency that helps its customers to explore the world by providing the best travel packages at affordable prices. The company is famous for its customer service, which offers one-on-one customized trip planning according to customer preferences.

We completed the required tasks on time and delivered more than the client requested as we changed the hosting to UpCloud and improved the speed score by 20% more than planned.

EasyBilanz—Invoicing Inside WordPress

I created the custom theme for EasyBilanz using Advanced Custom Fields, post types, and features such as a PDF generator with auto-calculated prices, easy filtering with date range search, and the possibility of private invoices. The theme is created following the responsive web design approach.

Custom Animations for Web

Using the premium GreenSock Animation Platform (GSAP), I implemented interactive and immersive features from the designer guides to reflect the brand. The features included horizontal and vertical scrolling, InView and interactive animations, user interaction animations and effects, and custom animations for sliders to represent products uniquely.

Website Audits, Web Vitals, Technical Optimization

WORK DONE
• Code optimization: Minified and combined stylesheets and scripts to reduce load times and improve render blocking.
• Legacy Upgrades: Refactored outdated codebases to align with modern web standards.
• Cross-browser testing: Utilized BrowserStack to perform real-device testing across iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS platforms for seamless cross-browser compatibility.
• Web performance enhancements: Streamlined assets through image compression and lazy loading. Implemented advanced speed optimization strategies to ensure top-tier Web Vitals scores.
• Caching and CDN integration: Deployed and fine-tuned Cloudflare, CDN, and both server-side and client-side caching mechanisms to boost performance and reduce latency.

These audits significantly improved load times, Core Web Vitals metrics, and overall site efficiency, ensuring an optimal user experience and enhanced technical SEO performance.

Extending Gravity Forms Survey Add-on

Created a custom plugin to extend the Gravity Forms Survey add-on. The result was a better UI/UX with custom JavaScript and SCSS, converted radio and checkboxes into buttons and a "tell us more" button that acts as conditional logic (show other fields), changing the interaction of the "quick submit" to "submit" button.
