Project Summary

A smart home technology company (Rachio) engaged Divelement Web Services in January 2021 to integrate a headless CMS into its Gatsby-based e‑commerce site and to support Shopify payment/checkout flows. Divelement quickly learned the codebase, delivered the CMS integration on schedule, and then took on ongoing maintenance and support after the client's developer moved to a new role. The engagement helped the client maintain uninterrupted sales and reduced near-term hiring costs.
