A behind-the-scenes look at the architectural decisions, mobile-first thinking, and small details that turned a scattered Facebook funnel into a global academy website.
When Shahriar's Medical Academy first came to us, the entire student funnel was running on Facebook posts, WhatsApp broadcasts, and a single landing page that hadn't been touched in months. Doctors from Australia, the UK, the Middle East, and Bangladesh were trying to find course details, pricing, and how to enroll — and they were all bouncing off the same dead ends.
The academy didn't need a "redesign." It needed a foundation.
Before opening Figma, we asked one thing: when a doctor lands on this site for the first time, what is the single action we want them to take?
The answer wasn't "read the homepage." It was "understand the program well enough to fill out the enrollment form with confidence." Every design decision after that — the navigation, the course pages, the instructor profiles, the student stories — was reverse-engineered from that one moment.
Over 80% of the academy's traffic comes from mobile. Most medical students are on their phone between hospital shifts, in transit, or in bed. So we designed every screen for the smallest viewport first, then scaled up — which is the opposite of how most agencies work, and why most agency-built sites feel clunky on a phone.
Next.js with the App Router, TypeScript, Tailwind, deployed on Vercel. Boring, predictable, fast. Lighthouse score sits at 95+. International SEO baked into every page so the academy can be found from Sydney to Dhaka.
The platform shipped in four weeks. Within months, doctors from seven countries were finding the academy through Google instead of through someone's WhatsApp invite link.
The lesson? Most "digital transformations" aren't about rewriting code. They're about giving a real business a real foundation — one that scales when the business grows, instead of breaking the day it does.
