My first company, Indigo Digital, partnered with Paul Montie Design to build the original MIT BLOSSOMS (Blended Learning Open Source Science or Math Studies) site in the early 2000s on Drupal 6.
Nearly 15 years later, the principal investigator Richard Larson and co-founder Elizabeth Murray had decided to retire and reached out to discuss options.
The result is a near perfect functional and design match using nothing but standard HTML, CSS and plain vanilla Javascript.
It was an honor to work on such an amazing project with such a selfless and dedicated team of professionals. It's good to know that their hard work will continue to enrich the lives of underserved students around the world.
