Digital foundations for professionals who rely on a website. If you’re the one who inherited the website and became the go-to overnight, this talk is for you. I’ll open up a real client website, before and after, straight from Figma and the sitemap, so you can see exactly what changed and why. You’ll leave understanding how web foundations work and how to ask your developer sharper questions.
