Context
The client had no web presence. Customers found them through word of mouth only, with no way to browse products or request consultations online.
My contribution
Handled product structure, interface implementation, responsive behavior, booking flow, and deployment as the solo developer.
What I built
Designed and built a fast-loading website with a product showcase, consultation booking system, contact forms, and local SEO setup.
Implementation
