Client

Campsited

Dublin, Ireland

Project Summary

JustCoded developed and migrated an online booking platform (Campsited) from a monolithic Ruby on Rails system to an API-based architecture. They implemented a WordPress front-end for publishing, built a Vue/Laravel web app for search and booking, set up cloud infrastructure and CI/CD, and executed phased migration activities. The client reported strong developer quality, effective sprint planning, and measurable business impact from the new site.

Key Challenges

Migrate a monolithic Ruby on Rails site to an API-based architecture
Phase component deliveries to keep the site live while implementing WordPress publishing elements first and the web app next
Seamlessly integrate new components with the legacy stack during transition

Project Deliverables

New Campsited WordPress theme for homepage, landing pages, blog and multi-language support
Vue/Laravel web application for product search and booking integrated with REST APIs
Cloud environment and CI/CD pipeline for new components
Migration activities to move from legacy Ruby on Rails stack to new architecture

Project Solution

JustCoded built and deployed a new WordPress theme for the client's homepage, landing pages and multilingual content, and developed a Vue.js + Laravel web application for product search and booking integrated with the client's REST APIs. They provisioned cloud infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines for all new components and executed migration activities to transition from the legacy Ruby on Rails stack to the new architecture in phased deliveries.

Project Outcome

Rollout of the new WordPress landing pages improved online marketing ROAS
Bookings grew year over year by just under 100%
No downtime occurred during the migration period
Improved collaboration and efficient sprint planning between teams
