Design, implementation and usability inspection of a website for a fictitious no-profit organization, an Italian association that operates in traditional folk music offering free courses.
The project has been graded 30/30 in the Hypermedia Applications course.
I was mainly responsible for the frontend design and implementation for about 80% of the time, while the remaining 20% was dedicated to write the documentation and configuring and maintaining the backend server (Amazon EC2 instance).
The design-in-the-large of the website has been described using the Interactive Dialogue Models (Content, Logical and Page) and designed with both low-fi wireframes and hi-fi prototypes made with Sketch, showing the kind of links per page (Design Document).
The implementation of the website has been done in pure HTML and CSS for the frontend, using jQuery and Bootstrap frameworks, while the backend has been written in Node.js for the web server and REST APIs implementation, with a SQL database (Backend Documentation).
