Modular• Current website, each page is individually
coded, code scattered all over
• Individually coded › Programmer needed to make new pages
• Basically, current system doesn’t work
• If pages made from modules (building blocks), “it will be easier to fix bugs, keep compliance, keep uniformity, prevent errors, make editing easier, make coding simpler, and enhance the browsing experience.” - Matt Howard, ÜberBots Forums
