ALL400s: IBM i Community Hub
A community and sponsor website rebuild. Find them at all400s.com.
The problem
ALL400s has been a real hub for the IBM i community for years, and the content behind it is genuinely useful: the companies list, the locations map, the hiring board, and a long roster of sponsors. But it was built as a fixed-width, centered layout held together by images and dashed separator lines. Sponsor logos were pictures with no text beside them, so you had to already know each company to know what they did. On a phone the whole page shrank to an unreadable strip.
What we did
Rebuilt it as a responsive site that leads with what ALL400s actually is, then puts the three main tools (Companies Download, Company Locations Map, and Hiring Board) in cards at the top where people can find them. The sponsor roster became a proper directory: every company gets its logo, its name, and a line on what it does. All the original navigation carried over, so regular visitors land exactly where they expect. Behind it sits a full admin page where the ALL400s team can add a sponsor, update a listing, or change any of the content themselves. The admin fills in the content, and the layout holds its shape no matter what gets typed, so the site cannot drift back into a patchwork.
Results
- Readable on phones and tablets. The old layout was desktop-only.
- Every sponsor now says who they are and what they do, not just a logo.
- A full admin page for adding sponsors and editing content, with no HTML to touch.
- The layout stays enforced, so new content cannot break the design.
- Readers can switch the whole site to dark mode if they prefer it.
- Same site structure and navigation, so nothing got lost in the move.
iJob Exchange
A rebuild of the ALL400s hiring board. Find it at ijobexchange.com.
Two sides, one board. Candidates post profiles, employers post openings, and a semantic matcher ranks them against each other—reading prose, not checkboxes, so it knows RPGLE and RPG IV are the same thing. Resumes stay private until requested, contact details are never published, and the board deliberately refuses to ask for age, photos, or graduation years.
