THE BRIEF
Re-platforming the amazon bound website from a bespoke Teachable to WordPress.
The original site was built by an agency who used Teachable’s constrained environment, which came with its limitations. In order to regain control and be able to further develop the site into the future, the client got in touch with me to completely rebuild the site from scratch in WordPress.
Goal
The Challenge
The client needed a complete corporate website with 12 pages optimized across three different form factors (desktop, mobile, and tablet). The major technical challenge was integrating the front-end code with Teachable’s back-end hosting solution, which presented significant constraints including:
- Limited CSS customization options within Teachable’s environment
- Lack of proper testing platform for development
- Hidden back-end dependencies that affected front-end functionality
- Need for seamless integration between custom front-end and Teachable’s video content system
Additionally, the project timeline was compressed with a critical launch deadline during the early COVID-19 pandemic period, requiring deployment during a government-imposed curfew.
Result
The Solution
A super customizable, modular and scalable WordPress website fit for a career coaching business in the tech industry.
Delivered a complete end-to-end front-end environment using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript that successfully worked within Teachable’s constrained hosting environment. Key solutions included:
- Customizable Design Framework: Built a highly customizable WordPress theme that allows easy content updates and design modifications for the career coaching business
- Modular Architecture: Developed modular components that can be easily reused and reconfigured across different pages and sections
- Scalable Infrastructure: Created a scalable foundation that can grow with the business and accommodate future expansion in the tech industry market
- Responsive Design Implementation: Created fully responsive layouts optimized for desktop, mobile, and tablet viewing experiences
- Teachable Integration: Configured custom front-end code to seamlessly integrate with Teachable’s back-end video hosting system despite platform limitations
- Constraint Workarounds: Developed creative solutions to overcome CSS restrictions and hidden dependencies
- Performance Optimization: Ensured 100% site performance across all pages and form factors
- Live Deployment Support: Provided hands-on deployment assistance and real-time bug resolution during the critical launch phase
The project was successfully launched on schedule with all pages functioning optimally, resulting in a super customizable, modular and scalable WordPress website that effectively serves the client’s career coaching business while maintaining seamless integration with their video content platform.
What the Client Says
"Harshad is an outstanding front-end web developer. He re-coded and relaunched from scratch our online course website, and released each page in three separate formats (desktop, mobile, and tablet).He worked in a tough front-end development environment (the Teachable platform) and as a result had to resolve a number of additional limitations such as lack of a test platform, very limited global CSS environment, restrictive templates, etc.Harshad delivered exceptional work - he not only provided high-quality working code, but helped deploy the site in our live environment and worked side by side with us until the site was 100% performant.It's just a matter of time until I hire Harshad for our next web development project. I can't recommend him highly enough."
