ParalympicsGB Website Hero

Paralympics GB

Description

A resigned and rebuild of the ParalympicsGB website providing the latest news and information for the British Paralympic Association. The frontend was built with Angular, Typescript, SCSS and server-side rendered with Angular universal and then deployed as a dockerized container within a Kubernetes cluster. The content of the website is managed by a CMS and access via a GraphQL API.

With accessibility being front and centre to the new experience the site was built to meet WCAG Level AA compliance while providing a rich and interactive experience.

I oversaw the frontend build which made use of many of SOON's open source Angular libraries which I had developed. As well as implementing many of the programming practices I had put in place for all frontend development at SOON_.
