About

Delight partnered with Dr. Jafari Allen & Jaala Alston of Columbia University to bring the first-ever digital version of the historic SOULS Journal to life. Delight and Morcos Key were instrumental in bringing new life to a publication that has existed for decades in print, but now lives on as a modern, performant peer-reviewed online journal.

Features included:

• Full-stack development of a beautiful, speedy, modern server-side rendered web application.
• Integration with OJS (Open Journal Systems) for article publishing and authentication
• Responsive, clean editorial design emphasizing readability and accessibility
• Custom SEO + performance optimizations for global academic reach

The result is a platform that feels as sharp and contemporary as the journal’s ideas, while maintaining the rigor and depth of its archive.
