Next.js Development in Canberra
Next.js development for Canberra organisations with large publication libraries
Research organisations, think tanks and peak bodies in Canberra publish constantly: reports, submissions, policy positions, data and briefs. Over the years, publication libraries turn into hundreds of poorly labelled PDFs that nobody can search.
We build Next.js knowledge sites that turn those libraries into structured, searchable, accessible collections that are fast to browse and easy to keep up to date.
Publications as data
Every publication gets structured metadata: title, authors, date, topics, type and a summary. Visitors filter and search across it, and related publications link to each other automatically.
HTML first, PDF second
Key reports are published as accessible web pages, with the PDF available for download. They are easier to read on a phone, work with assistive technology and are far easier for search engines and AI assistants to cite.
Sound familiar?
The problems we hear most often about this, why they happen and what we would do first.
Why this happens
They're PDFs with generic file names and no page of their own.
What we would do first
- Give each publication its own page with a summary
- Publish key reports in HTML
- Add structured data for publications
Why this happens
No consistent tagging or search.
What we would do first
- Define a simple topic and type taxonomy
- Tag the existing library
- Build filtered search for staff and the public

Frequently asked questions
- Can you migrate our existing library?
- Yes. We import and tag existing publications, with redirects from old URLs.
- Can you convert PDFs into web pages?
- Yes, for priority documents. We use conversion tools, then check and fix the structure by hand for accessibility.
