This was a massive project in the end, with prices and avalaiblity updated automatically and integration with their back-end accounting systems giving them an end-to-end system.
DevCore - the developer friendly Content Management System
DevCore - The CMS that let's you, the developer, build and deploy websites and web applications with ease.
Rapid development has never been easier.
The New Zealand Transport Agency
The New Zealand Transport Agency was formed from two large government departments. DevCore was used to bring together the content from the different websites into a single entity.
This was a very large and complex build.
Marselme
Marselme is a boutique e-commerce site that sells high quality merino wool clothes for babies and children. This was an interesting site to build. The design parameters changed half way through the process and there were issues with designers... it would have been enough to drive a developer insane.
Cherrytree - The club for smart shoppers - members site
Cherrytree is a shopping club that buys goods at wholesale prices and then passes those goods to its members.
BGI Developments
BGI Developments is a start-up that is going places really fast. They needed a website yesterday.
That's where DevCore really came into its own. The hosting arrangement was non-standard. Effectively we had to run a newer version of DevCore inside an older version in order to deploy their new site without affecting an existing site.
This saved time and money on setting up a completely new site.
Domett Trailers
Domett Trailers manufactures truck trailers. They need a new site to cope with the increasing demand for their products, and to showcase all the different types of trailers they can build.
The trailer galleries were all built from scratch, as was the trailer database where clients can log in to get all the information about their trailers - right down to the component parts used!
RightCar
The RightCar website is one of the sites under the NZTA mantle. It is useful for checking out the safety and fuel efficiency of cars and other interesting facts like emmissions etc.
This was a slightly different build for DevCore. most of the dynamic content is served up via web services, instead of being pulled from a database.
Cherrytree - The club for smart shoppers - public site
Following on from the success of the members only website, the people at Cherrytree wanted to update their public website. So using the existing DevCore codebase we simply added a few new folders, a few new classes, and the site was good to go.
Rightcar Mobile Plate Search
This subsite is an addition to the successful RightCar site.
It is tailored to mobile users who are looking for a new car.
They can enter the licence plate of a vehicle and see all the relevant safety information for that particular model of car.
Wellington Emergency Response Team
The team needed a new website. Something that represented their outgoing 'go anywhere, do anything' attitude. So I built this site for them.
It's nice and simple with a clean look and lots of pictures that show the team in action.
For this site, it is mostly plain vanilla HTML, CSS and Javascript. That keeps it light and quick.
When I presented it to the team, the response was really positive. So now they have a website that matches their spirit - outgoing dynamic and kick-arse!
