Boston Book Festival

Boston Bookfest website

I started the Boston Book Festival site initially as a front-end reskinning project, but it actually ending up requiring the completion or a Radiant CMS using Ruby on Rails. Better CMS solutions have since been created, but Radiant CMS is great for what it is and an updated version is currently in development. Using the page parts extension helped keep the content modular and reusable. Using a jQuery infinite scroll plugin helped the large Presenters section. I wrote some of the Ruby on Rails, SCSS, CSS2/3, HTML5, JavaScript and jQuery.  This site would not have been possible without Joel Olivera for the initial Radiant setup, Phil Pham for design, and Norah Piehl for administration.
