A little of what we’ve been up to.

Matt Weinberg and Michael Lastoria talked about the innovations driving the future of the retail industry and how brands can adapt digitally during this must-see fireside chat.

It’s been 18 years since Happy Cog founder and web standards advocate Jeffrey Zeldman originally published Designing With Web Standards. The web itself may seem in many places unrecognizable now compared to what it was. We’ve added new devices, seen frameworks fall in and out of fashion, matured whole disciplines, seen the real and lasting global impacts of the digital and connected world – for better or for worse. Life without all these things seems nearly unimaginable at this point.

There’s a lot to be thankful for this month. See what the Happy Cog team has been up to below!

Happy Cog recently launched a new website for Optimize, an online community that teaches members how to improve their lives, drawing wisdom from a variety of teachers and sources. The foundation of the project is a headless Craft back-end that powers a Nuxt-based website and both Android and iOS mobile apps, all via a custom-built API layer. One of the requirements for the mobile apps was the ability to send push notifications for Optimize’s “Daily Wisdom” posts, which we accomplished using a custom Craft module.
