RKD Research partnered with Ronder to develop a cutting-edge digital research platform, leveraging Symfony and React to create a robust, scalable solution. The project focused on building a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) that enables researchers to efficiently manage and organize their work, integrating tools like Visual Search and the Digitaal Bureaublad. By using Symfony, the team successfully orchestrated complex backend integrations, including Elastic Search and a SPARQL endpoint, while React powered the website's frontend. The result was a platform that significantly enhanced research capabilities, demonstrating the power of modern web technologies in academic environments. The solution not only improved user experience but also solidified RKD Research's position as a leader in digital humanities.
