Development process
Identity & design

At the outset, the company had no established identity elements, so we began the project by focusing on its branding. The identity and design we created were highly industry-specific.
The design prominently features equipment photos, informational charts, and diagrams, emphasizing the company’s scientific foundation. While the style might appear unconventional to outsiders, it resonates well with industry insiders. We conducted polls to validate this approach and received positive feedback.

Development process
Audience & usability

We prioritized understanding the core audience in detail. Our research revealed that the typical consumer is a tech-savvy person in their forties, often with impaired vision due to the nature of electric welding. To address this, we implemented accessibility features for the visually impaired, adhering to the WCAG 2.0 accessibility standard.
From the outset, the customer provided us with extensive content that required precise positioning on the site pages. We meticulously organized this content, ensuring it met all user considerations and expectations. Another critical and labor-intensive feature we incorporated is Schema.org-compatible semantic markup. This allows users to see site paragraphs with descriptions and even rankings directly in search results, which is particularly beneficial for busy tech workers who prefer accessing information in a concise format.

High quality

Another challenge was achieving pixel-perfect layouts and minimizing errors. Given the backend’s relative simplicity, potential HTML/CSS errors were the primary concern. We thoroughly addressed these issues through multiple rounds of testing and error correction. The final test revealed zero HTML and CSS errors, as confirmed by the W3C Markup Validation Service. Regarding the layouts, we worked diligently to meet the customer’s standards, achieving precision within a few review sessions.
