Boston Pizza wanted a refreshed career site where candidates could learn more about the company and search for roles across their footprint. I owned the front-end build at Radancy (formerly TMP Worldwide) as the dedicated developer on the engagement.
New library, live deadline. The home page called for a 'Get to Know Us' slider built on Swiper — a mobile-first slider library I hadn't used before — and the project schedule didn't have an obvious 'learn Swiper' block built into it.
Ramp up in isolation before integrating. I prototyped the slider against dummy markup outside the main build, so climbing the learning curve didn't block work on the rest of the site. Once the Swiper API clicked, dropping it into the real page was straightforward.
What I took away. The best part of this one was getting to add a new tool to the kit. Swiper turned out to be more approachable than the docs first suggested, and it's stayed in my regular rotation since.
