Case study

After a short brief of the desired website from the client I started to work on the layout in Figma. Then we did the photography to get the visual content ready for the design. Following a long period of experimenting with the design elements and logo, we settled on the final(ish) look.

I decided to use Gatsby as a framework as the SEO is really important for the business, also having loads of photos on the website, I wanted to apply the new Gatsby Image Plugin to get the best look and performance. In order for easy add, update and delete functionality for the client to manipulate dates and availabilities I used Contentful CMS and used GraphQL queries to manage data. In the end, I deployed the project in Netlify with a custom domain and webhook to auto-deployment in case of data changes in Contentful.

Future Improvements:

Build a server for form submissions or migrate the CMS to Strapi, depends on the client's budget.
