Tiivistelmä
The objective of this thesis was to renew the website for Nummela Kylähistoria, a municipality association from Nummela. The redeveloped website would align with the latest web browsing standards and provide a user-friendly experience with accessibility options. WordPress would be the platform used to develop the website. Additionally, a user manual would be created for the client to update and edit the website independently for the website development.
The development process utilized a design thinking approach that was ideal for designing a website based on the users' needs. The research methods used to collect data were qualitative such as user-centered design, benchmarking, and user testing. Wireframes were constructed with the use of the Figma prototyping tool.
As a result of this thesis, a functional pilot website was developed that matched the client's needs, included accessibility options, and was mobile responsive. The client’s content was not injected into the website. However, it is made possible for the client to maintain and update the website independently with the step-by-step instruction manual that was created as part of this thesis.
