Destination Shanghai

Co-developed Destination Shanghai, a custom WordPress site built from the ground up with PHP, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to showcase Shanghai’s top attractions through a rich, interactive user experience.

Destination Shanghai is a fully custom-built WordPress website created to serve as a dynamic travel guide for visitors interested in exploring Shanghai. Designed and developed collaboratively, the project leverages a custom theme architecture to deliver modularity, performance, and full design flexibility.

My Role in the Project:

  • Collaborated on theme development using PHP and WordPress template hierarchy
  • Implemented front-end layout and styling using semantic HTML5 and CSS3
  • Integrated JavaScript for interactivity (e.g., smooth scrolling, responsive navigation)
  • Ensured cross-browser responsiveness and accessibility compliance

Key Features:

  • Custom WordPress Theme: No third-party templates used—designed and coded from scratch to match exact UI/UX requirements.
  • Attractions Directory: Modular layout showcasing Shanghai’s highlights (e.g., The Bund, Yu Garden, Disneyland), each with imagery and dynamic “Read More” links.
  • Media Integration: Video highlights and visitor testimonials add authenticity and engagement.
  • Scalable Design: Easily extendable structure for additional destinations or localized content.

Technical Stack:

  • WordPress (PHP templating)
  • HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (vanilla)
  • Responsive grid system and reusable component blocks
