About project
Projects tasks
The client came to us with an iOS native app and an incomplete Android app, with a minimal and an outdated design. Therefore, we made a decision to design & build everything from scratch using Flutter as core technology.
UI/UX design process
How did we start?
The client came to us with a working iOS app and an idea on how to make this better and more engaging for the end user. They trusted us the app visuals, development and interactivity giving us full creative freedom. Since this platform is not a regular learning app but a interactive platform with game design elements, we had to think out of the box. The task was also personally interesting for one of our designers, who recently completed university studies herself. It all began with a competitive analysis, exploring the field and various solutions. This required us to meticulously plan many details and create unique elements, such as a special hero character.
Development process + features
Game state management
The challenge was that, unlike the backend which automatically detects events like a player exiting the game, Firebase does not offer this capability out of the box. Therefore, our developer had to plan for every possible scenario of two people playing simultaneously, such as determining what happens to one player when the other exits the game and etc., and write the corresponding action code. Acting as both frontend developer and backend architect, he focused on structuring Firebase effectively.
Summary
Outcomes
- Learning has become more convenient and cost-effective, with no more expensive and heavy books.
- Learning & saving your progress on the go, at your own pace, everywhere.
- The client was so impressed with our work that they also requested us to design the landing page.
