Overview

An online retailer asked us to theme and extend its Magento store and then move it from Magento 1 to Magento 2. We built the responsive theme and product pages, set up search and product data tools, and handled the migration and its aftermath.

What we built

  1. A responsive theme and navigation for desktop and mobile
  2. Product page templates for the different product types
  3. Klevu search, and later ElasticSuite configuration for search response
  4. Research and setup of Akeneo for product information management
  5. Custom modules, including share and save for product bundles and header links
  6. Migration of the Magento 1 store to Magento 2: theme, data and customisation
  7. Order export and other module customisation on Magento 2
  8. Fixes for product images, export profiles and image uploads
  9. Pricing logic for MSRP and bundle products, email templates and ReCaptcha fixes
