ATO Community

Project role: UX Design and frontend development

A government-hosted community forum

ATO Community is one of the first government-hosted community forums in the world. In 2018 it was awarded a Good Design Award for Web Design and Development.

ATO Community was designed and developed with a user-focussed approach. My team was responsible for user research, wire-framing, design of the Alpha product and frontend development.

ATO Community was built using the Lithium Communities platform. The technology stack included Html, Sass, JavaScript, the FreeMarker template engine and the Lithium Query Language (LiQL). Our team built over 20 custom plugins to ensure the desired design was achieved.
