Honeycomb Biotechnologies is a leader in single-cell RNA sequencing, offering accessible, scalable tools for cellular analysis. Their HIVE™ platform—a portable, single-use device—captures and preserves individual cells without specialized lab equipment, enabling researchers to collect high-quality samples directly from clinical, lab, or field environments.
Building on this innovation, the HIVE CLX increases cell throughput with 160,000 picowells, ideal for analyzing complex or rare cell types. Paired with BeeNetPLUS, a cloud-based analysis tool, Honeycomb simplifies data interpretation for researchers of all levels. Project Assistant was privileged to collaborate with Honeycomb in developing their website, helping bring this cutting-edge science to a broader audience.
The Honeycomb Biotechnologies website highlights their work in single-cell genomics with a clean and easy-to-navigate design. It helps researchers and clinicians quickly understand their technology and mission.
The site was built on WordPress, chosen for its flexibility and ease of use. This makes it simple for the Honeycomb team to update content and keep the site running smoothly.
The Honeycomb website was built using the Sage 10 theme, a modern WordPress starter theme that offers a powerful development workflow. Sage 10 uses Laravel Blade templating, modern PHP practices, and tools like Webpack and Tailwind CSS, making it ideal for building fast, maintainable, and scalable websites.
From a developer’s perspective, Sage 10 was chosen for its clean code structure, component-based approach, and seamless integration with front-end tooling. It allowed for greater control over the design system, efficient asset management, and a smoother development process overall.
The Honeycomb Biotechnologies website uses a focused set of WordPress plugins to support content, forms, and user engagement. Advanced Custom Fields PRO and Category Order help structure and organize content, while Yoast Duplicate Post streamlines page creation.
Gravity Forms handles all form submissions, with add-ons for HubSpot, Mailchimp, reCAPTCHA, and Zero Spam improving automation and security. Gravity Perks and Easy Passthrough enhance form functionality and data flow.
For marketing, Popup Maker is used for announcements and lead capture, while RafflePress Pro enables contests to boost engagement.
Header Footer Code Manager allows easy script management, Redirection handles broken links and SEO, and SVG Support ensures crisp graphics across the site.
The Honeycomb Biotechnologies website was built for performance, scalability, and ease of use. Using WordPress with the Sage 10 theme, the team delivered a modern, maintainable site powered by Blade and Tailwind CSS.
With smart plugin choices enabling flexible content, secure forms, and marketing integration, the result is a user-friendly platform that empowers the Honeycomb team to manage content easily and connect with their audience effectively, supporting their growth and advancing their mission in single-cell genomics.
The Honeycomb Biotechnologies website is fully mobile-responsive, with a layout that adapts seamlessly to all screen sizes. Optimized navigation, content, and forms ensure a smooth, user-friendly experience on smartphones and tablets, making the site accessible and effective across devices.
