Craft CMS Development

Craft CMS sites built around your content, not around a theme. I do new builds, upgrades from Craft 3 and 4, custom plugins and the care that follows.

Let’s talk

Why Build on Craft CMS?

Craft doesn’t arrive with a theme, or with an opinion about what your pages should look like. You model the content first, and the templates get written to fit it. That suits sites whose content was never blog-shaped: event calendars, directories, several sites run from one install.

Your editors get a control panel that’s clean and quick, with live preview and proper drafts. I get Twig templates and a sane upgrade path, which means less of your budget goes on fighting the platform.

What You Get With Craft

  • A control panel your editors won’t need a manual for
  • Content modelled on your business, with no leftover fields
  • Fast pages, because each template loads only what it needs
  • Far fewer plugins to patch than a typical WordPress site

Recent Craft CMS projects include the University City Science Center and the National Writing Project.

Craft CMS Development and Upgrades

I build new Craft sites, take over existing ones and upgrade old ones. Craft 4 has reached end of life, so upgrades are most of what I’m asked for at the moment.

I recently moved four client sites from Craft 4 to Craft 5 without losing any content, including 571 calendar events that had to be recovered along the way. The whole process is in Migrating Four Sites from Craft CMS 4 to 5 Without Losing a Word.
