- Vue / Nuxt / GraphQL / WCAG 2.1
Six months at RMIT Online, on both sides of the line. Design first, then lead frontend through a full rebuild in Vue and Nuxt with GraphQL underneath. Multi-cohort education platform.
Two roles, one codebase, one product. The bridge between design intent and shipped code stayed short because the same person was on both ends of it.
Search and filtering were the centre of it. An education platform serves students across different programs, enrolment states, and course types. The query surface had to absorb that without making the student feel the complexity underneath.
WCAG 2.1 was part of the rebuild from day one, treated as architecture. Vercel on the deploy side. Embedded engagement.
