- We still don’t know when their fundraiser is, will add that info here once we do.
- Raanan: “Yes, the initial plan was to have a placeholder page that could accept payments for donations and/or fees for services. We had a developer I work with put something together on the placeholder page that's currently there. But our request here is not fully for a placeholder page, but moreso for a lightly fleshed out main page with some light functionalities... So the idea is to have it be a soft launch version of the bigger project. Due to the moving timeframe (no complaints here), we realize this may take longer for the final product than initially anticipated, so our hope is to have something substantial, but not the end product prior to the final launch date.”
- Morgan: “I love the idea of a soft launch, somewhat of a minimum viable product for the website before going with a larger version. I am doing the same approach with the new org launching next week, it will be a smaller version of what's to come but still brings a lot of value to audiences. Just throwing this out there, I used a no-code tool to get the new Tech Fleet website up and it's been amazing and quick. You still need all of the UX and content and research work, but you can pull it together really quickly without development. It's similar to WordPress but more secure and more extensible. It's called Framer framer.com Here's the tech fleet website so you can see the power of Framer https://left-booking-453401.framer.app/ (the domain will soon be techfleet.org) Let me know what you think about using something like Framer (you can even use it for the permanent website) @Rachel Newcomb @EJ Makela let's touch base internally! We can get the design team to work in Framer to put together the high fidelity pages instead of figma (dare I say) or you can export from Figma into Framer directly!”
- Raanan: “Yeah, keep us posted following the internal meeting with @Rachel Newcomb and @EJ Makela. Would love to have something made from TechFleet team similar to the project you did for TechFleet ( https://left-booking-453401.framer.app/ ). Obviously, not the exact same look as we have different content and color palette, but if I follow properly, this would be the ultimate get while we're working with y'all on the BIG SHEBANG fully-fleshed out website.
