Radio UCR
Accessible radio streaming platform for Universidad de Costa Rica, bringing three stations into one mobile-friendly web app.
The university needed a digital platform that could stream three radio frequencies, work well on phones, and meet accessibility requirements.
We built a WCAG-aware web app that centralizes the stations, simplifies listening on mobile and tablet, and keeps the interface clear on desktop.
Project overview
Radio UCR had to work like a real listening tool, not a static station page. Users needed fast access to audio, accessible controls, and a layout that held up on phones and tablets.
Radio UCR needed a website and digital experience that made the work easier to understand and easier to use. The university needed a digital platform that could stream three radio frequencies, work well on phones, and meet accessibility requirements.
Website and user experience
The live website, radios.ucr.ac.cr, is where the work becomes useful to real visitors. We organized the experience around the main actions people need to take once they arrive.
- One web app for the three UCR radio stations
- Live streaming interface designed around quick access to audio
- Accessible controls and navigation for a broader audience
- Mobile first listening experience with a clean desktop layout
Technology and integrations
The implementation combined design, content structure, and the technologies the project actually depended on.
- WCAG aware frontend implementation
- Streaming audio player integration
- Responsive web app interface
- Accessible navigation and semantic controls
What we built
On the delivery side, this work covered both the public website and the product details behind it. We built a WCAG-aware web app that centralizes the stations, simplifies listening on mobile and tablet, and keeps the interface clear on desktop.
