Challenge
School OS aunique product developed by the Bamboo Agile team from scratch. Before startingwork on the project, we had to do lots of research (including big dataanalysis) to better understand modern educators’ specific needs and to refinethe vision of the product. Our goal was to create apps which would simplifyparental monitoring of their children’s progress allowing to view their gradesand rankings, and facilitate the parent-teacher communication. An importantrequirement was that the final product should be accessible via web and mobileapps.
