Challenge
GDC Media & Design has an in-house team of highly professional web developers and designers with years of experience under their belts. However, the agency sometimes finds itself overloaded with orders and short on development resources. That’s when they hire us to handle certain projects and tasks for them. This time around, the agency’s management was planning on relaunching its corporate website.
Our task was to create markup and animations/interactive effects for them.
Additionally, the client requested a hamburger navigation menu for a better user experience on mobile devices.
Finally, they wanted us to use the default page editor Gutenberg on the back-end.
