Since its creation, the project has promoted educational activities to bring science closer to all audiences, with a practical and participatory approach. <\/p>\n\n<p>In 2021, they launched their website, integrating registration sales and online teaching into a single platform. But the rapid growth of the project put their digital infrastructure to the test. <\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cOur WordPress installation became overloaded and difficult to maintain.
