As 2015 comes to a close, we’re looking back over the past year at 5 of our favourite websites that have been submitted to the SEBLOD showcase.

2015 was a huge year for SEBLOD. We’ve had a couple of major releases, a range of big upgrades and new features, big changes to the SEBLOD.com website, the launch of some great user-friendly SEBLOD apps, and we also sponsored 15 Joomla! Events.

The true measure of this year’s success for us is being able to look at all of the brilliant websites that have been submitted to the SEBLOD.com showcase throughout the year. These sites are testament to the power the SEBLOD gives developers to build powerful web applications with Joomla! Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to submit sites to the showcase, and we look forward to seeing what you build in 2016.

Virtuose+

This website was created for the famous French university La SORBONNE. The designers and developers re-designed the Libraries Direction Unit in a new responsive template that matches large screens as well as tablets and smartphones. The site is used by the inner students of the university as a search tool, as the developers have connected the Joomla! / SEBLOD site with the documents information system of the university. Automatic daily cron tasks update the contents of the site. Neat!
