We rebuilt a content-heavy publishing platform for speed and scale, replacing a sluggish legacy stack with a modern, component-driven front end that loads in an instant.
The Goal:
Deliver a lightning-fast reading experience for a high-traffic publication — sub-second loads, effortless navigation, and an editor-friendly setup the newsroom could run on their own.
The Challenge:
The legacy CMS buckled under traffic spikes and pages took seconds to render. Readers bounced, and editors dreaded publishing anything with rich media.
The Result
A statically generated, edge-cached front end that stays fast under load. Page speed scores hit the high nineties and time-to-publish dropped from hours to minutes.
