La Donuts — a warm, phone-first site for a donut trailer.

A donut trailer in Gillette, Wyoming, run by a friend of mine. She was in San Antonio for a few days, so we built the site together in two days: a menu and hours she can edit from her phone, two ways to order, and wording that sounds like her.

The brief.

The site needed to do three things: show today's menu, say when the trailer is open, and make it easy for a regular to order a dozen glazed from their phone. She'd also been locked out of her old domain after the developer who set it up stopped responding, so she was starting over on a new one.

What shipped.

A short menu and hours she can edit from her phone, the location front and center, and two ordering buttons: "Order on Messenger" and "Text us to order." I scoped a full online checkout through Square, but she chose to keep orders where her regulars already send them. That saved her the card fees and saved me building something she didn't need. The site runs on the same foundation I built for Skateland, which is how it took two days instead of two months.

The colors, type, and tone came from her handwritten menu board. I pulled a pink from it and built the site around that.

Since launch.

I still host and maintain the site, and she has the login to change flavors or hours from her phone whenever she needs to. If she ever wants to move on, I'll hand over the domain and everything on it. She won't get locked out of her own site again.
