Core Responsibilities & Contributions

Visual Design

• Designed the full visual identity of the site — colour palette, typography, layout and component style — from scratch
• Created a calm, trustworthy aesthetic aligned with the therapeutic nature of the client's practice
• Built a responsive layout that works across desktop and mobile without relying on a CSS framework

Multilingual System (i18n)

• Built a lightweight client-side internationalisation system in vanilla JavaScript supporting Finnish, English and Swedish
• Language switching updates a data-active-lang attribute on the body element, triggering CSS selectors that show or hide content tagged with matching data-lang attributes — instant switching with no page reload
• User language preference persisted via localStorage across sessions and page loads
• Avoided external i18n libraries entirely — zero dependencies, minimal footprint

SEO & Metadata

• Implemented full SEO metadata: Open Graph tags, Twitter Card, canonical URL, meta description and robots directives
• Structured multilingual content for discoverability across all three target languages

Deployment

• Deployed on Cloudflare Pages with environment-based configuration and custom domain setup
