I work on the dev team who do the equivalent for The Telegraph in the UK - each interactive longform will usually cost £3-£4k in dev time.

Did you develop in-house tooling to expedite the process or do you mostly begin from a blank slate each time?

At that price they must be using tooling.

We have in-house templates pre-built (in Vue.js) with an array of different components available for us to use, so this drastically reduces dev time.

Do you have any examples of articles like these from the Telegraph?

Sure:

This is the kind of longform we build. Hope that helps :)
