Wrote Dodgy Code's 2021 Year in Review

A recap of our first full year in business. New staff, new projects, new tools, and failed experiments.

Setup Beampipe.io on dodgyco.de

Beampipe is a privacy focused analytics alternative to Google Analytics. It's GDPR compliant, anonymous, and provides the ability for tracking custom events. This is our first time using it, and so far it's been great!

A bit buggy with loading at times, but the developers are very responsive and always working to improve things.

Built v1 of the Dodgy Code website!

More releases to follow, but we're so glad to finally be on the web. Thanks to John Flynn for his frontend development help in getting us launched! (Seriously, where do people find time to build their own sites?!)

Launched a new website on the Craft CMS platform for Chicago's South Side Home Movie Project. The site houses hundreds of archived amateur films from the South Side neighborhoods of Chicago. The project is used in film courses, exhibits, and in the creation of modern creative media.

The website was built using HTML, Sass, PHP, and Javascript. The Sprig plugin allowed us to use HTMX for reactive site components. A custom PHP module was built for integrating the Collective Access API to the site. The site was designed by Span Studio, a Chicago based design agency.

Gave a talk at Craft's DotAll Conference about building guided CMS experiences! Author Experience (AX) is just as important as the site's User Experience (UX).
