Created simple initial online presence for a start-up corporation Metria Innovation
A Drupal based redesign of the Document Engineering 2011 website.
Description of an approach that is capable of versioning multiple types of Product Line projects. It has a versioning model for a product line consisting of a single core assets project and multiple product projects where core assets are shared among the products through the use of shared components. Using the shared component data structure and the branching of the core assets project, we are able to support independent development of core assets and products and change propagation between them.
