Soft Gorillas

We received a project from the Grocery sector. The main economic objective of the app was to be a community based on mutual trust that was subject to peer evaluation for the quality of the service provided.

The core of the application is the implementation and making orders from grocery stores. The application included the most popular supermarkets where geo-location was used according to the user's location.

The challenge was to take over the project in the web version from the company that wrote the project for the investment industry, in old technologies (pure PHP5 according to the MVC pattern). The project was so much troublesome that there was no technical documentation that would allow for a possible development of the project. Initially, the programmers tried to develop the code with greater and lesser success, write basic functions. However, another problem emerged - the efficiency of the application. In the end, it turned out that the project had no value as quality software, devouring the investor's huge budget.

We had a reflection to rewrite the project in the core functionalities again, with the backend being based on firebase and cloud infrastructure in the google environment, and write mobile applications natively. We focused first on creating a mobile application for the android platform (most users in the world have a smart phone with the android software) in Kotlin technologies. We focused on the exchange of information between users, enabling the creation of accounts, building a network of contacts.
 

The itninjadev.com is a project that aims to acquire several characteristic types of user accounts; employers interested in hiring developers on a permanent basis, from HR specialists supporting themselves on the recruitment process, to people looking for a team who want to build a technological project, occasionally SH.

Starting from the Case that we knew well, we decided to create basic views of forms that a given specialist from IT and related industries should complete.

ITninja was written in Laravel and Vue.js technologies. The project was preceded by a business process workflow to take place within a recruitment-related app. While writing the application, we conducted a code review. The application also underwent performance tests to match a given server.

The streetcom project, and in fact its consultations, came to our workshop much earlier than we have actually started our current cooperation. Initially, the client did not trust us due to the size of the project and the budget he had at his disposal, as well as the risk of handling the application and the risk of getting lost in the size of the software that we had to rewrite from scratch due to improved efficiency and UX.

The client however returned to us in a smaller project. We hope that it is a kind of test and a good experience gain against other challenges that the client faces in the IT sphere.

The application is designed to facilitate work inside the environment in which the company works. The application is to optimize the full range of data which filters it to obtain a specific result of the information through the filters from the database. Due to the confidentiality clause, we cannot present the exact Case and rely on sample information received from the client. We also cannot present the mock-ups of the project.

The SmartCart mobile self-service checkout consists of a barcode scanner and a touch screen as well as a dedicated application that enables customers to make purchases. Sales security is ensured by a weight-vision system that detects all errors and fraud attempts in real time. Payment is made at the payment station by card, in cash or via a dedicated mobile application.

Our participation in the project is:

1. Writing a Dashboard to manage the self-service cash register for employees.
    
2. Graphic design and UX of the application for tablets
    
3. Frontend of the application for Vue.js for tablets
