Institute of Serbian Language, SANU
Project Overview
The Institute of Serbian Language (SANU) required a modern, structured, and easily maintainable website that could present a large amount of academic and institutional content in a clear and accessible way.
The main goal was to build a fast, responsive WordPress platform that allows non-technical editors to manage complex content types such as publications, projects, and institutional updates.
The Challenge
This project required more than a standard WordPress build. The website needed to support a large amount of structured content while remaining easy to edit and scalable over time.
- Multiple custom content sections with consistent layout
- Easy editing for institute staff without technical support
- High performance and long-term maintainability
- Fully custom front-end implementation based on the provided design
My Role
I was responsible for the full front-end development and WordPress implementation, including building a custom theme, structuring the CMS with ACF and Custom Post Types, and ensuring a responsive and maintainable architecture.
Solution & Implementation
To achieve flexibility and scalability, I developed the website using a modular component-based approach, allowing the institute’s team to easily manage and expand content.
- Custom WordPress theme development tailored to institutional needs
- Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) for editor-friendly structured content
- Custom Post Types for publications, projects, and research entities
- Responsive layout optimized across all breakpoints
- Clean front-end architecture focused on performance and accessibility
Technologies & Tools
- WordPress (Custom Theme Development)
- Advanced Custom Fields (ACF)
- Custom Post Types (CPT)
- HTML5 / CSS3 / SASS
- JavaScript
- Responsive & Accessible UI Implementation
Outcome
The final result is a modern institutional website that is easy to maintain, structured around scalable content types, optimized for performance, and aligned with the institute’s long-term needs.
