Increased usability of the website of a fortune 100 CNCF company
About the Client
The client is a Fortune 100 American computer technology company that develops, supports, and repairs computers and related products. The client is one of the world’s largest technology corporations and has been in business for more than 40 years. It is one of the leading sellers of personal computers, servers, network switches, data storage devices, software, cameras, printers, and electronics built by other manufacturers. This CNCF client required a development partner to support the enhancements required on a website that stores streaming data.
- Industry: Technology
- Headquartered: USA
- Platforms: Modern Web Framework
- Team Size: 6-8 Developers
The Challenge
The CNCF client’s outdated website required in-depth professional development and design support. The challenges the client faced were:
The existing website consisted of static pages. The website had to be dynamic and updated to current design trends.
The blog section of the website had a different design and layout that did not match the rest of the website design.
MkDocs project documents are regularly created and updated by the client on Git. MkDocs was available on the site also but those had a completely different format. This disconnect made it harder for users to interact with and fill out.
The existing site did not have a centralized system to manage the designs, layout, and site content.
The client couldn’t figure out where to host the site and the site assets.
The client wanted an option to assign limited access to the users based on their roles to prevent unwanted users in the admin area.
Our Solution
Programmers.ai studied all the requirements carefully and offered quick and long-lasting solutions.
Creative Design and Animation Development
Our in-house design team created the graphics and animations the client required using HTML and Photoshop.
Website Design Synchronization
Our team used Python to make changes to the root folder so that MkDocs pages are updated on the website to match the website design and layout.
Seamless AWS Deployment
Our team initially hosted the site on Programmers.io server and later helped the client deploy it to the AWS server, creating a simple, seamless deployment.
Role-Based Authorization Setup
Authorization and security were set up to create clearly defined admin roles and areas of access on the website.
Consistent Blog Integration
The blog section was easily converted to the same design and layout as that of the website. Now when the user clicks on the blog link, they land on the blog page that matches the rest of the website which enhances user experience.
Consistent Design Integration
The Programmers.ai team quest to design a new, dynamic website began with an in-depth search for current themes and layouts that the client might find appealing. Our designers assembled the custom and paid themes that we suggested into a single presentation for the client to choose from. The client opted for a combination of pre-created layouts and custom touches. Programmers.io integrated the themes successfully delivering a responsive website that is easily accessible on desktop and mobile devices.

Specialty Retailer Unlocks Legacy ERP data and Business Processes
I wanted to take a moment to highlight and commemorate the efforts from our dedicated PIO team. To preface, the projects we work on here are complex, with rigid objectives, budgets, and timelines. Expectations are always high and are ever-changing. From the start of our relationship, the IO team was able to exceed expectations and make our business wishes a reality.
Over the past year I have worked with them, they have worked very hard to understand our highly customized system and troubleshoot things with little or no documentation while managing to keep the business up and running normally. Without the hard work and dedication they have shown, I know we would have had some issues causing downtime or lost production. I am looking forward to continuing working them in the next year as well.
I have been working with Programmers IO for more than 5 years now and I have been pleased with all projects and developers that I have worked with. We have had a few issues here and there but they have always fixed and made it right. They have been an excellent addition to our business.
