igalia.com development
During the last months we’ve been working on the new Igalia website, maybe you have already heard something about it ;-). In this post I’d try to gather some useful information about the development of this project. We’re really glad with the fact that people seems happy with the final result and we promise to keep this new webpage more updated that the last one.
First of all, as you can expect the website has been developed using TYPO3 as content management system (one of our expertise areas inside the web group). I’d like to highlight some extensions used:
- TemplaVoila! (templavoila): That makes really easy to adapt the design to our needs.
- News (tt_news): Specially the database structure provided by this extension, that has been adapted to support areas, projects, igalians and even commits in the new webpage.
- Ameos Formidable (ameos_formidable): Even when we don’t have a lot forms, Formidable is heavily used in the whole website, all the listers and detail views are provided by this great extension.
- Yet Another Feed Importer (yafi): A nice extension that allows us to import all kind of data via RSS feeds (posts, commits, …).
- mnoGoSearch (mnogosearch): The search engine selected for the web.
Moreover, we haven’t just used these extensions, we have also contributed to some of them reporting some bugs and providing some patches to add new behavior.
Finally, we’d like that everybody enjoys the new website so any comment, suggestion, bug report, whatever is welcomed.
