Proposed solution and changes:

The web app was already built with basic fictionalities when we got this in our bucket. We take it from there and enhanced day by day. We have followed agile methodology . To manage project we are using JIRA and to manage code we are using Gitlab. There are multiple employees working on it and we are managing it well. There are many complex calculations and executions which we have developed and successfully deployed on production. We are having 3 environments there to manage, 1) staging 2) demo 3) production. We are using dev-express to integrate some of the complex functionalities and have done customisation on top of it as per requirements. The mobile apps are on native platforms and we keep updating it frequently to give more facilities to make user’s life easy.

Conclusion :

We started this project in 2020 and we are still working on it and doing enhancements. We are also fixing any minor / major bugs there and QA system regressively. We have learnt and explore many new challenges till now and we will keep learning more.
