Future Steps:

Contact old faculty and clients to determine the relevancy of old sites

• After exploring the wordpress modernization I was given another task to work on updating another old website using wordpress

Docker

Docker is a platform that is used to package applications into images

The reason for this are to help avoid version conflicts and ensure functionality of those using the image

Correlates of War

WordPress Importer

I first started to take a look at the STA knowledge base around the time I was being hired, I was interested in improving the details and joined a project to help redesign our old STA KB internal site

Below are some Inspirations:

Knowledge Base – Goals Mockup

• Taking these pieces of inspiration I thought of the purposes of the site and developed a KB mockup with claude that considered design decisions I was interested in (notably breaking the site into the role of the STA to create relevancy and usefulness within onboarding and documenting in the kb site) 
• Below are some examples:

• The Next Project started with me meeting a senior dev at LAITS who focuses on AI projects.
• This was a good way of learning how to Integrate my Masters in Artificial Intelligence into my development work at LAITS
• The Goal is to develop a chatbot for the COLA helpdesk that can help assist in the process of staff having to manually sift through ticket requests and emails for basic help questions
• I am a user of Claude for some of my personal projects (https://abdurrahmaan-baghdadi.github.io/) 
• Claude had downtime when I started to work on this project and so I decided it would be better to work on self hosting a model.
• From here I looked into the Qwen 3.8 ollama 27B model to host on my local machine
• this would not only continue progress in the project at a nice rate but also would avoid downtime problems caused by relying on claude

Below are some of the integrations that the my local LLm could support:

• Later along the line, Claude’s availability returned
• I decided to take advantage of having 2 LLMs at hand
• The goal was to have my claude application manage my Qwen interactions for me – trying to optimize the model and setup for my system but also train the model to handle the creation of a help page router (the actual machine learning algorithm that would be used to help users navigate to necessary pages)
• I iterated through various ideas trying different solutions
• Along the way I wanted to benchmark my approach

• After becoming familiar with wordpress and our sites at LAITs I was given the task to review old labs hosted by the university and renovate the old sites (to learn the process and interact with the interface)
• Below is the result of how I used the Content Management System interface to transform the old site into the new site
