Sustainability Ambassadors

Challenge

Enhance an existing platform to better serve youth environmental education with expanded resources while working within existing technical constraints.

Solution

Expanded Wix-based site with comprehensive resource library, teacher membership system, and custom Velo logic enabling educators to contribute lesson plans.

Results

Transformed educators from consumers into active contributors. Created accessible educational hub supporting Washington classrooms with searchable, filterable resources.

Technologies Used

Wix Velo

A development platform extending Wix with custom JavaScript, databases, and APIs.

We use Velo to add sophisticated functionality to Wix sites without full custom development.

JavaScript

The ubiquitous language of the web, powering interactive experiences across browsers.

We use JavaScript when projects need browser interactivity or integration with existing JavaScript ecosystems.

Custom APIs

Project Details

Sundragon transformed a basic Wix website into a functional educational platform by implementing custom JavaScript and Velo engineering, creating both a digital resource library and teacher-driven lesson-plan ecosystem.

Educational Resource Library Designed and implemented an interface for browsing sustainability-focused educational materials. Built searchable, filterable content sections for student and teacher access. Extended Wix capabilities using Wix Velo (JavaScript). Restructured pages to improve clarity, navigation, and usability. Created an accessible educational hub supporting Washington classrooms.

Teacher Membership & Lesson Plan System Developed a membership system specifically for educators. Built secure workflows enabling teachers to upload, edit, share, and manage lesson plans. Implemented custom Velo logic for permissions, content ownership, and file management. Enhanced UX to facilitate teacher contributions. Transformed educators from consumers into active contributors on the platform.

Technical Implementation Performed deep exploratory development with Velo APIs. Implemented dynamic data binding and custom backend functions. Created JavaScript-based business logic beyond Wix's standard capabilities. Avoided full custom stack migration while expanding platform functionality.

Design & Site Improvements Refined layout and content structure. Modernized visual flow and navigation systems. Improved accessibility and mobile responsiveness. Unified tone and experience across all pages.
