make creating a new landing page easy for non- engineers

[echolabstech]

problem

Currently, we don't have a CMS so when new content such as landing pages (i.e. bridging the gap, workshops, etc...) needs to be created we still need a dev to do the work. What we do have are interns and junior engineers, and more on the way. We want to make it easy for them to do development. Afterwards, we need a way for non-engineers to do the same.

solution

I'll communicate the solution as a BDD test with the intention to translate that test into behave logic.

scenario: an engineering intern makes a landing page with a slider

Given: I have page.html with all the fixings (html, head, body, etc...)
Then to import the navigation component
Then I import a slider component
Then I import the footer component
Then I customize the slider with images
