As part of our latest development project with the Guardian Project team, we have re-engineered the Butter Box portal interface. This post describes the design choices and improvements within the new portal.
|
||
|
||
Previously, the interface was a static site built with Jekyll, which offered no customisation options and was ill-suited for the portal’s dynamic requirements. It has now been replaced with a Python Flask application, a lightweight framework that allows developers to include only the necessary libraries, such as for localisation, minimising the application’s footprint.
