Six years ago I inherited the Virginia Wine Expo website from a trusted colleague. What started as a handoff has turned into one of my favorite long-term partnerships. Mobile-first improvements, events overhaul, ticketing integration, and a lot of work that doesn't show up in screenshots but keeps things running.
New case study on my studio site:

You might have to be a nerd to fully appreciate this, but regardless, this is seriously the best tech conference trailer video I've ever watched. I'm so excited about this event!
Did you know you can use Coilpack from PacketTide to use Laravel inside your expression site? And you can use any of EE, Twig or Blade templating in ExpressionEngine?
Folks, here's an #introduction post. I'm Travis Smith but equally often go by Nep. (It's a nickname.)
I own a web dev firm, we do custom #eecms & #CraftCMS suberbly and other tools at excellent levels.
Started in #Calgary, went to #USC #LosAngeles, #Vancouver, other stops, now #Montana / nomadic.
My other passions: #ultimate #beachultimate #SpiritDirector #flyingdisc #ddc #spiritofthegame #SOTG #USAU #WFDF #OpenMedia #EFF #travel #trek #canada #đ„
So impressed by ExpressionEngine's year-in-review blog post. Not just by all that they did this year -- and it's a lot -- I'm impressed that they even managed to do a year-end #eecms wrap!
(I'm still working on my Christmas cards!)
The coolest CMS (#eecms) just got cooler with the release of CoilPack 2.0, which brings full support for #laravel 11 and a large pile of improvements.
Coilpack is a composer package that allows EE to run as a backend to a Laravel site. With it you can use Twig templating and integrate other Laravel apps while relying on EE to be the content and member-handling aspect of your site.
