RAISE Manifesto Website Project

Last updated:

Project Overview

This website—the RAISE Manifesto site itself—was built using the RAISE methodology to demonstrate how intention-driven development with AI assistance can create clean, accessible, and purposeful websites. This case study documents the progression from vision to implementation.

The RAISE Manifesto website serves as both the definitive resource for the methodology and a living example of its application. It embodies the principles it promotes: clarity over complexity, intention over scope creep, and human-centered design.
