OVERVIEW

Each page in a website is composed of unique and common components. The goal of this project was to create a PHP backend which generated each of these components dynamically from a database, thereby reducing duplicate code. This model further allows for a simplified and straight forward update method in which pages can be modified by changing a single database entry. This reduces the chance of broken links and data artifacts.

TARGET AUDIENCE AND DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS:

This project is targeted at novice web designers seeking to create a page based website. As a result, the focus was on creating an easy to use system for designing and updating page content. This process must be understandable to those with a limited technical background and relate to similar experiences that the user might already have.
