Customizable Web Templates Adapted for Various Type of Clients | Looka

https://looka.com/
This project's challenge was more of giving voice to the client's customers rather than focusing on a technical issue as a result of the work. It was quite challenging to ensure that each customer's needs were understood and taken care of.

Although this project was a pleasure to work on, it was a challenging and creatively consuming process. I have created over 30 templates in HTML and SCSS and implemented them in Duda. The adaptation segment was where the magic happened, and choosing the right templates adaptable for the clients, each with individual needs, was the main goal to be completed successfully.

WordPress Website for Marketing Automation Company | JTF Marketing

https://www.jtfmarketing.co/
A custom WordPress theme was built with the help of the Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) Pro plugin and was delivered within the deadline. The theme was made compatible with WPML so that the website can be multilingual, and it was built to scale easily with the help of technologies like Sass and Gulp. Also, WooCommerce and LearnDash were implemented. The website is SEO optimized and responsive.

WordPress Website for a Ticket Marketplace

https://gotstubs.com/
GotStubs is a Chicago-founded ticket marketplace that covers millions of live and digital concerts, theatres, and sports nationwide. They sell tickets for events all around the US while giving a portion of their proceeds back to their Chicago-based not-for-profit partner, Fight 2 Feed.

Working on gotStubs meant focusing on creating a website that will deliver an excellent user experience. At the same time, it is also loved by Google bots and evaluated and ranked high on the Google search engine page results. The project was started from scratch.

GotStubs' site is now a fast and functional website with a speed score of 100/100 on desktop and 96/100 on mobile devices. It is fully SEO-optimized and filled out with SEO content that targets the relevant transactional keywords. In addition, the website is now a reseller of tickets on the territory of the whole USA, in comparison to being centered only locally in the Chicago area when they approached us.

Website for a Danish Startup | Valuer

https://valuer.ai/
Working in collaboration with this Danish venture capital startup from the very beginning, I worked on numerous landing pages for upcoming events as well as on the first version of https://valuer.ai/ with the blog.

I also worked on http://jointhehunt.co/, which is a website for agents who scout startups, where I worked on the front end for all the screens on the dashboard.

I was in direct communication with the PO, the project designer, and the team of developers; we used Agile methodology to facilitate the process of task organization.

Mockup to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript | Minty Fusion Studios

https://www.mintyfusion.com/
The client wanted to convert PSD designs into pixel-perfect HTML, CSS, and JavaScript website based on Bootstrap 4 and Sass. There was a need to create separate codes for each section, which would be independent and reusable everywhere. I created a website based on the requirements and implemented on-page SEO, which will help them increase its online visibility.

Mockup to HTML, CSS, and JavaScipt | Foxpush

https://foxpush.com
My client wanted an SEO-optimized responsive HTML, CSS, and JavaScript website based on Bootstrap with several pages. I built the front end using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript based on Bootstrap 4 and Flex for the responsive design. The project is published and works great.

WordPress Website | Sydney Implant Studio

https://sydneyimplantstudio.com.au/
My client wanted a revamped WordPress-based website for their implant studio in Sydney. I made them a new website so they could manage the content themselves. It has a new design and performs much faster than before.

Mockup to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript | Event Source

https://eventsource.ca/
My client wanted an SEO-optimized responsive HTML, CSS, and JavaScript site based on Bootstrap with many pages containing a sticky sidebar, sticky navigation bars, and complex carousels. The website's goal was to present events and help people organize events.
