As a Project Manager, Franzi is the contact person for clients and a liaison between projects, developers, and concepts. She makes sure everything is done at the right time. She also keeps b13's website up-to-date. Franzi is a great addition to b13 — she doesn’t miss any pieces of a problem when it comes to finding the best solution within the team. She's open-minded and quick to learn and adapt due to her structured way of working. While trying to keep everything together, she always keeps a calm spirit with a solid and analytical understanding of the client's needs. But of course: a great joke always gets her to laugh in any situation.

Franzi and TYPO3
As TYPO3 is built on open source code, there are people working on it worldwide to make it even better with every release. The community is proactive; if you have a problem that needs to be solved or fixed, there is a good chance somebody is already on it. I love that TYPO3 is a versatile tool that can be adapted for so many different use cases — the possibilities are nearly endless. And once you understand the system it's quite straightforward to use, even if you switch between different sites. That's what helps me and b13, in general, to deliver great customized solutions without the limitations other systems can have.
Franzi on working at b13
At b13, I love that we are a team of many different characters, but we share one vision: to deliver top-quality websites and to have fun doing so. The people I work with trust my abilities to do my job well, while giving me a chance to learn new things and gather new expertise. We always strive to deliver the best work possible: fast, reliable websites with great design and easy-to-access content. We are also forward-thinking; if we encounter a problem that doesn't have a solution yet, we ensure there will be one in the future.
Franzi’s Dos and Don’ts
Always make sure you have all the facts
Always try new things
Always ask if what the client wants is really what the client needs
Always keep calm and carry on
Never say you can't do something you haven't tried
Never give up
Never try to understand printers — it just can't be done
People with disabilities constitute one of the most significant segments of online users, but it is an often-overlooked population in the digital world. Increasing accessibility to this population is an empathetic choice and an intelligent business decision, especially when you consider that temporary and situational disability adds up to include almost everyone who uses the internet. Improving accessibility can increase an organization’s reach, enhance the user experience, and boost SEO. Additionally, with new accessibility directives in play, organizations that expand their site’s accessibility will maintain compliance with the law.
The Core Web Vitals are the go-to metrics for determining if a web page responds to user interaction swiftly and without disruptions. TYPO3 admins and developers need to know how these metrics work.
