Project Overview

What Made by Binary Built

Al-Rabita (الرابطة) is an independent Arabic news platform. Made by Binary designed and built it end to end: a calm, right-to-left reading experience for the public, and a working newsroom behind it.

Readers follow the latest stories by section, open special files on long-running topics, see breaking news as it lands and keep their own reading list. Editors write, review and publish from their own dashboard, without needing anyone technical.

The Problem

Business Need

A news site serves two audiences with very different needs. Readers expect a fast, uncluttered page on their phone, clear sections, and a way to save stories and follow the subjects they care about. The newsroom needs to move quickly: draft and schedule stories, push breaking news, moderate comments and reader reports, and know who changed what. Most ready-made templates are built for English, handle Arabic right-to-left layouts poorly, and leave the editorial workflow to add-ons.

Our Solution

Delivered System

Made by Binary built an Arabic-first site with news sections, special files, a breaking-news bar, a photo gallery, community announcements, search and an RSS feed. Readers can open an account to save stories into folders, follow sections, receive notifications, join moderated comments and manage their own settings. Behind it sits an editorial dashboard for writing, drafts, scheduling and publishing, breaking news, comment moderation, reader reports, users and roles, contact messages, the newsletter list and a full audit log. The site has light and dark modes, sends smaller images to phones, and moves between pages smoothly without full reloads. Made by Binary hosts and looks after it.
