Case Study: Copernicus achieves a modern, more usable Drupal 8 website with Code Enigma

Copernicus saves time and money by cloning Drupal 8 sites with Code Enigma

Copernicus, the European Union's Earth observation programme, needed to update its older Drupal 6 websites for its Climate Change and Atmosphere Monitoring services to a modern platform. The sites had become unwieldy with many bolt-ons and required significant information architecture changes. They engaged the vendor, Code Enigma, for its Drupal expertise to handle this development and migration.

Code Enigma implemented a solution by first building a single Drupal 8 base website that covered both services' common needs and then cloning it for each specific service. This approach, guided by prior user research, saved considerable time and money. The vendor used Pattern Lab for the front-end design and created integrations for large data systems. The result was two highly usable, consolidated websites, and the project's success led Code Enigma to develop new internal tools to improve its workflow for future projects.
