Journalist portfolio + dashboard
Qalam
An Arabic-first portfolio with its own dashboard for articles and readers’ tips.
(01) The problem
A field reporter needed one home for her work, a blog she could update herself, and a safe way for readers to send tips.
(02) The idea
A fast right-to-left site with a private dashboard behind it. No monthly CMS bill, and no developer needed to post.
(03) What I built
Inside it.
- 01
Arabic first
Right-to-left layout and type, designed for Arabic, not translated.
- 02
Reports & articles
Her field reporting, with the numbers and the impact.
- 03
Tips with attachments
Readers send stories and files through a secure form.
- 04
Her own dashboard
Most-read articles, new tips, posts and messages in one place.
- 05
Serverless
No server to look after and almost nothing to pay each month.
