Shipped to production
The reworked CSS went into production during my internship.
The mission
The R&D team I joined develops and maintains Dassault Systèmes' internal web Git platform. Its interface was plain HTML: grey and dated. I redesigned its appearance: the theme, the colors, and a more modern look aligned with the Dassault Systèmes visual identity. I worked only with CSS, without ever touching the HTML.
My role. Computer engineering intern in the R&D team that develops and maintains the internal Git platform.
Tools
What I worked with.
CSS
The code layer used to style the whole platform.
HTML
The existing structure I had to work with, without editing it.
Git
Version control for the platform code and for my changes.
Challenges
What got in the way.
Responsiveness
Adapting the interface to different screen sizes is hard when the page structure cannot be modified.
No access to the HTML
Every visual change had to be achieved through CSS alone, which constrained the design choices.
Deliverables
What I delivered.
Looking ahead
Monitor user feedback and finalize the responsiveness.
