Skillcape Software LLC was contracted to build a new website for a regional homebuilder company. They have maintained a web presence over the last few years, utilizing WordPress to maintain a collection of Properties, Open Houses, Communities, and Blog Posts. Whilst their previous website met their basic needs for connecting customers to upcoming listings and open house events, it struggled to consistently keep data updated through ad-hoc integrations with their associated Multiple Listing Service platform.
The previous website was built in Wordpress, requiring constant custom development work to maintain custom theme integrations needed to support new MLS fields and an ad-hoc sync system compatible with Wordpress' Post and Entity schema.
The new website required seperation from Wordpress, moving to a purely custom website platform to deliver the following:
Skillcape Software LLC developed a custom website utilizing an industry standard Microsoft stack with Blazor WASM & Dot Net Core Web API, hosted on Microsoft Azure. This met their uptime requirements and provided flexibility to leverage Azure's Cloud Functions for asynchronous MLS sync operations. Having the ability to custom develop admin features to manage non-MLS driven features allowed our client to pick and choose the information they wanted to track and how it was presented on the website without worrying about adhering to Wordpress rules.
As a result of this project, our client stays competitive in their industry by providing up to date information to their potential customers with minimal technical interference.
