Projects on Deck 👷‍♀️

What's been keeping us busy this month:
  • We're helping Purdue’s College of Engineering migrate subsites from their existing Zope site into a new Plone instance running on Plone 5.2 / Python 3. The change is a big upgrade for the site editors who can now use a GUI instead of having to manually edit templates. Plus, with newly added Mosaic features, editors can build diverse and dynamic layouts using the custom tiles we have built for them.
  • We're helping atmospheric data scientists test, validate and architect production solutions for their algorithms to provide their clients with more accurate and granular predictions of lightning and tornado threats.
Can we help you out? Read about some of our recent projects.
