Quest from the house ofUniversitas Terbuka

SALUT Bilge Turki

The public site for Universitas Terbuka's service center in Turkey: faculties, programs, services, and news in one place. I built it solo, from the shape of the content to the last screen, and I keep it running.

Reading I · The impact · Ink: Royal Crimson

Indonesian students abroad needed one trustworthy place to find programs, services, and how to enrol. The site gives the service center a public front door that speaks for itself, in the country it serves.

7,200+
overseas students the center serves
48
study programs, searchable
58
countries in the wider network

The challenge

A university's worth of content, no backend team behind it

The approach

Fully static. Instant to load, near free to run

The calls that mattered

  • Static rendering over a server, so there is no bottleneck and no monthly compute bill
  • Program search and faculty filters run client side, instant with no round trips
  • Faculties and programs modeled as data, not hand-built pages, so updates stay easy
  • Built mobile first, since most students arrive from a phone
