Work

Built to solve a specific problem

Every project here started with a constraint — technical, organizational, or both. The work shows what that looks like when it's actually solved.

Case Study

Erfgoedtour

A shared tour platform for 200+ museums across a Dutch province — no app, no vendor lock-in.

The challenge

Over 200 museums and cultural institutions in Gelderland wanted to offer self-guided tours to their visitors. They needed one shared platform that could scale across all of them — without forcing visitors to download an app.

What was built

A WordPress Multisite platform where each museum runs independently — own branding, own content, own user accounts — while sharing the same infrastructure. Tours are built from multimedia stops with audio, video, quizzes, and interactive maps. Navigation adapts per venue: QR scanners, numbered stops, dot codes, or free exploration on a map. Visitors access everything from their browser. No app installs, no accounts. Live at 15+ museums, with more joining every quarter.

Key results

  • WordPress Multisite with independent subsites per institution
  • Audio, video, and interactive maps via smartphone browser
  • Configurable navigation: scanner, numbered stops, dot codes, or map
  • Simplified editor for non-technical staff

Technical details

Platform

WordPress Multisite. Each museum operates as an independent subsite with its own content, branding, and user accounts.

Custom theme

Purpose-built theme with custom post types for storytelling stops, tours, and dot codes. Tours are composed by selecting and ordering stops.

Navigation system

Configurable per tour: scanner, numbered stops, dot codes, list view, or interactive map. Museums choose which modes fit their space.

Content management

Advanced Custom Fields Pro with version-controlled field synchronization across the multisite network. Simplified editor for non-technical staff.

Interactive features

Built-in quiz system, multi-language support, tour instructions, and location-based content delivery for on-site visitors.

Infrastructure

Hosted on AWS Lightsail. Centralized plugins ensure consistent functionality while each museum customizes independently.

Project Types

What Minuar is brought in to solve

Projects vary in scope and technology, but follow the same principle: understand the actual problem before touching a line of code.

Integrations & Automation

Systems that should talk to each other but don't. ERP to webshop. CRM to email. Supplier feeds flowing into product catalogs automatically, without someone doing it by hand.

E-commerce & Product Systems

Webshops built around how the business actually operates. Not around what the platform assumes. Automated imports, inventory sync, and order pipelines that scale without extra headcount.

Custom Platforms

When no existing product fits the workflow. Admin tools, booking systems, content platforms, data management interfaces. Purpose-built to match how the team actually works.

Business Websites

Fast, findable, easy to update. Built for search engines and AI tools without locking anyone into a proprietary builder.

Fixes & Migrations

Taking over sites that have become a liability. Untangling accumulated technical debt, migrating from broken platforms, and making something maintainable again without starting from zero.
