Company Profile: Dennis Publishing is a dynamic 21st century media company that values its people above all else.
Project Outline: Brought into the Dennis Digital Team to revamp (skin and theme) the BuyaCar.co.uk website. The BuyaCar platform sits on a legacy JSP templating system, so being brought up to speed by their Java Developer on how the pages layouts were populated gave clear context for my FrontEnd skill set to assess how best to retheme the site.
Skills Applied: Gained exposure to Kanban development. Used team working tools such as Slack and Fogbugz to alert PM’s on development targets reached. Used Koala Sass Compiler to for local builds of the new theme PSD’s. Source Tree was used to commit changes daily and updates to Github. IE9+ compatibility achieved using Browser Stack testing.
