Flint — CMS for Newspapers



Flint was the second application that came out of Adams/Gilbert Co with Zack Gilbert.

The core of Flint is based on a project we completed for a local alternative newsweekly, Rochester City Newspaper. We thought this solution might also be able to help the other papers within their industry. The alt-weekly industry is a group of about 200 independent newspapers across the country who try to cover news, arts, and culture differently than the larger papers in their area. Flint was the product that we put together to begin to taget this group of newspapers.

I'm primarily responsible for the design of the marketing website, marketing materials, communications, the web application UI, the template designs for all clients running on our product, customer support, and all business development. Zack is the Product Engineer responsible for building the entire application, front-end to back-end, along with maintaining the server infrastructure, doing customer support, and integrating templates for each of our clients.
