Squiz DXP Developer Profiles

Alex Foy lead a major project focusing on the re-development of the University of Notre Dame website. For the University of Notre Dame project, Alex introduced an alternative design for the existing site and created new templates to overlay the current page contents and assets. This innovative approach allowed the university to maintain asset IDs across the website while gradually implementing the new page templates and components to enhance its online presence.

The project ran over a period of about 6 weeks. FrontStage were supplied Figma files and directed to create a pixel-perfect copy of the designs in HTML / CSSS / JS for Squiz matrix. The front-end design was set up as components in the SQuiz DXP for an easy, no-code content authoring experience for the HETI team. Read about the HETI project here.

Donna delivered a revised IA and Workshop report for the Education Services Board of South Australia.

The project detailed in the "ESB Discovery Report & Website Project Brief" aimed to transform the outdated Education Standards Board (ESB) website, which had not been substantially updated since 2018 and was struggling to manage information following national reform. The site’s poor UX and limited search functionality were identified as major barriers to compliance, user experience, and minimizing risk.1

The ultimate goal was to create a modern, high-performing, authoritative regulatory gateway. The scope of work included migrating the website from the legacy Drupal environment to the user-centric Squiz DXP environment and completely redeveloping the Information Architecture (IA). The project utilized the UltraCX website starter kit for design mockups, with the crucial consideration of making the entire design easily re-themeable to accommodate an anticipated future ESB brand review.1

Key functional requirements included optimizing iApply forms, using a DXP contact form for filtered inquiries, and implementing a tagging strategy to streamline content management across different audience sections like Early Childhood and Schools.1

Achieved outcomes are centered on creating a site that is WCAG-compliant, centrally supported, and provides staff with autonomy for content creation. Success measures prioritize maximizing compliance transparency through automated publishing and improving public accessibility and inquiry logging to meet Royal Commission goals
