BROTHERS IN ARMS MEMORIAL
This project was developed as part of the Final Integrated Project, where our team created a comprehensive marketing campaign and responsive website to commemorate and educate visitors about the sacrifices of veterans. The site integrates dynamic storytelling, interactive features, and custom administrative tools to allow easy content management. Built with a mobile-first approach, the website meets modern web standards and accessibility practices, delivering a seamless experience across devices and browsers. I was responsible for both front-end and back-end development. On the front-end, I helped design and code the user interface using HTML, SASS, and JavaScript, implementing responsive layouts and interactive enhancements using Vue.js and GreenSock. On the back-end, I structured the MySQL database and developed a custom CMS using the Lumen PHP framework, allowing secure admin access to update memorial content dynamically via an API.
