Hello!

I design and build websites, CMS projects and web applications — for companies with no in-house technical team, and for teams that need extra frontend capacity.

Rails Inertia React PDF

Product catalogue with PDF output

Several thousand products across several languages, with documentation generated from the same data.

Built with
Rails · Inertia · React · PDF
Scope
Full interface migration from Rails to React and Inertia
Year
Data · 2024

The catalogue covers several thousand products grouped into families and sub-families, with rules describing what fits with what. Content is maintained in several languages and several market variants, because the same product is described and certified differently depending on the country. Datasheets, installation guides and assembly diagrams are generated as PDFs from that same data, so the documentation cannot drift from the database after the first update. An editorial panel lets the team put together a trade-show catalogue without involving IT. It had been a classic Rails application with server-rendered views; I carried out the full migration of the interface to React with Inertia.
