The Challenge
Where things stood before
Ridgeline Studio's biggest obstacle was a publishing workflow that made it hard to move quickly without sacrificing quality — something their team had tried to patch more than once without lasting success.
Their team suspected the root cause but hadn't had the bandwidth to actually address it properly.
The Solution
What we built
Rather than jumping straight to a fix, we spent time understanding the specific shape of the problem first.
From there, a news PWA that kept load times fast even on slow mobile connections, built specifically around what Ridgeline Studio needed.
- Benchmarked against clear, agreed-upon success metrics from day one
- Tested thoroughly before launch to avoid post-launch surprises
- Structured so Ridgeline Studio's own team could maintain it going forward
- Built using React and Workbox for a stable, maintainable foundation
