Project Goal

The client already had an application developed in Flutter, but it needed redesign. The goal of the project was therefore to implement new designs, which required refactoring, i.e., restructuring code, while not changing its original functionality since only some of the old components were usable.

Client’s side:

Testing, reporting corrections

Better soft services side:

General problem

The client provided us with an app that required refactoring, the implementation of new designs, and performance enhancements. A major challenge was to make the smallest possible changes to its core in a short period of time to start working on further functionalities as soon as possible. By implementing such a solution, we were able to develop the application in parallel according to good practices, as well as build a base of reusable components. In a short period of time, they enabled us to improve other elements of the application.

Solution

The design of the application was already prepared by the client, nevertheless our Flutter experts actively participated in discussions with the client, which resulted in usability improvements.

Flutter's platform was an excellent choice for this project, thanks to its built-in components it enabled express implementations of nice interfaces. Due to the lack of a client-side backend, at this stage of the project we decided to use multiple Firebase services, which allows us to manage video content in the application.

Changes to the app's translations can be made by the client himself through a panel from the POEditor solution, which has been integrated with git, this reduces the developers involvement time in text changes to a minimum. The app also offers subscriptions, which users can purchase through GooglePlay and StoreKit.
