Solution

We started to improve the website and used Ruby on Rails for the entire platform to ensure a smooth and clean code. Once the architecture was done, in order to connect the user of the web app with desirable content, we implemented a complex global search based on the Algolia search engine. For the Makerist sellers, we developed a CMS (content management system) to help artists manage their profiles, upload & sell their designs, and monitor their sales. The Makerist platform is fully scalable now, and everyone using it can easily combine all the learning resources, videos, and showcases to learn a new hobby in an interactive and innovative way and to sell their crafts! This platform helps crafting businesses digitalize their activity in an effective way.
