Canterbury Museum is one of New Zealand's oldest museums, based in Christchurch and home to millions of objects and taonga. Its website runs on a headless stack, with Craft CMS managing content and a Next.js frontend serving visitors information about exhibitions, events, and the museum's major redevelopment.
I work across the Next.js frontend and the Craft CMS backend as part of the Plato development team. I built the newsletter subscription feature, added a full-size image pop-up to content blocks, reworked the homepage banner, and ran a maintenance pass covering CMS and plugin updates along with local development tooling.
