Canopy for WordPress
Our aim to provide clean, modern sites led to the foundation of our very own WordPress framework. Canopy is an umbrella over all of our web projects, letting us deliver consistent quality by starting from the best foundation we can assemble.
Getting Down to Details
In order to support all web-capable devices, from the desktop down to the phone, and everything in-between, we’ve built Canopy to work responsively. This means that our sites adapt to the physical dimensions of the browser and do their best to behave like first-class citizens in any given environment. This means that graphics will be crisp on high resolution screens, and interaction will follow conventions which users are comfortable with.
Speaking to Search Engines
In some regards, our most important visitors are search engines. Canopy is written to speak their language, taking advantage of new technologies like OpenGraph and Schema.org to fill in any gaps that may hinder their understanding of a website. On the same token, HTML5 and ARIA landmarks help make our sites more accessible for screen readers.
