One of our most recent clients needed a site to promote their 25 years anniversary event. At first, they thought to develop it on top of their Ruby powered CMS. However, after a careful analysis, we found out that they didn’t really need any of the features provided by their CMS. As a promotional site, a static website was enough to fulfil their needs.

To develop it we used the same technology stack that we are currently using to host our site. A Middleman static site generator powered by Netlify deployments.

But they had one requirement that we couldn’t fulfil only with Netlify. They needed a contact form where you could upload a WAV file for a contest they were organising.

Here’s how we solved it :)
