Wesmere is a complete redesign of the Battle for Wesnoth website I made in 2017 upon request from the project leadership at the time, fully replacing the old Glamdrol design from 2005 with a new theme developed entirely from scratch, taking inspiration both from its predecessor as well as the actual game’s UI.
In addition to refreshed visuals and a reorganization of the home page, Wesmere also adds a few quality-of-life functions to the game’s wiki, allowing easier selection and copying of code snippets often found in its programming language reference sections.
After completing the main Wesmere project, I also cleaned up the Translation Statistics and Units Database sub-sites and adapted the new theme for them. Finally, it was again requested of me to develop a new design that became the basis for the release announcements published for versions 1.14 through 1.18.
