EPiC Lab

Development Process

I needed to transfer all of the content from the old site to the new one, and allow for a way to easily log in and edit content.

In order to begin coding this website, I needed to find a way to allow Dr. Pasricha to edit the content without having to do any coding. After doing a bit of research on content management systems, I finally decided on Wordpress. The original candidates were Drupal and Wordpress, but I ultimately decided on Wordpress because I felt that it had more capabillities. It was a big learning curve for me, since I had to learn MAMP, the basics of PHP, and the components of Wordpress by myself. After a long amount of hours, I was able to produce a website for his lab using a custom theme for Wordpress.
