CS-Cart design integration

We have been working with State Academic University for many years. First we started our cooperation in 2014 with their old website. In 3 years they decided to update their website design and contacted us again. Together we prepared the technical task and changed their website due to their requirements. The result is here.

In 2019 we have started our partnership again. This time we were hired for their new project "Online library system of socio-humanitarian knowledge" (Sochum — its short name). 

The project was devided into three perios for two months. 

First of all, our task was hired to create a user-friendly, attractive and responsible web design. In addition, the logo, favicon, base inforgrafics and fonts and website styles was also included in webdesign. There was one basic requirement for the design: the prototype and the web design mockup should be made in the same style with their other projects: history.jes.su, gospravo-journal.ru

Second, the design integrator spent 4 weeks to implement all design features into CS-Cart system and meet all clients demands. 

Third, the back end developer added more than 10 appreciable features like advanced search by the website, the restriction to the full page context for some group of website visitors, two types of the subsription to the context access, the ability to create the reference lists, personal accounts for the operators of online library, the integration with the Selectel (cloud platform) and etc.

The client's technical task was taken as a base for developer's work and for several months some of our specialists have worked on this project. 

Werky is a german shop that sells handmade products made by physically challenged people. Great social project!

Our developer integrated the design mockups, provided by the client. It was the ordinary task for our design integrator as he made this work every week. 

The most interesting thing of this project was to adapt the CS-Cart store for blind/visually impaired visitors. People with visual disabilities are individuals who are blind, have low vision, or have colour blindness.

• * People who are blind need audio equivalents for text and image content.
• * Those who have low vision need the assistance of a hardware or software magnifier to enlarge the text beyond simple font enlargement.
• * People who are colour blind or who have low vision benefit from good contrasting colours.When information is presented by colour alone, a person who is colour blind misses that information.

The developer managed to combine all requirements for making websites disability-friendly. 

In case you want to surprise someone with a bunch of flowers but you don't have time and need the flower delivery service, you can open your laptop, buy the flower bouquet online then order the delivery to where you want it to be. This Flower store made on CS-Cart 4.7.1.SP3 RU. It has an extra storefront.

Actually, the client has 2 storefronts: https://df.ua/ and https://vambuket.com/ on one admin panel.

All modifications that we applied to one of the storefronts, automatically are available to another one. The store administrator manages the stores' features. 

Mostly time we worked with the client as Dedicated Developer. The client bought and installed our Store Cities on the storefronts and we rebuilt this cs-cart module according to the client's demands. 

We established the system of placeholders allowing store admin to make SEO pages for a specific city, district, region, and country. The regional placeholders (city name or district name) can be inserted into any block, category, pages, and products. Even breadscrumbs has regional names with the help of placeholders.

We also performed a system of cities as an extra module. The module allows creating districts, provinces, regions and tieing these areas with the different delivery cost. 

On top of this, we integrated the system of subfolders and subdomains that can be managed by the store administrator. He can select what to show: subfolder or subdomain for each type of the pages in the store. It's a complex modification, that demanded detailed SEO analysis. And it worked perfectly. We launched the module in March 2019 and see the result in some weeks.
