Project Approach & Results
To turn LingoLatte's vision into reality, Hyperlink InfoSystem adopted an Agile methodology. To yield a much clearer vision for this cross-platform solution, the project demanded extensive resource collection, wireframing, and precise prototyping. Furthermore, the development phase was centralized towards creating a robust backend using Node.js to help with real-time updates and data processing. It also helped in the native app development process for iOS and Android. To further ensure the product was flawless and reliable, a rigorous series of tests were carried out. In order to ensure we met all client's expectations, our team constantly followed up and maintained close collaboration to fully understand their demands.
Our proficient team then followed further with design and prototyping, where we constructed the prototypes and wireframes for visualizing the user interface and app flow. Utilizing Agile methodology, we iteratively devised and sampled the app, with the backend constructed using Node.js to obtain real-time updates and handle data processing. Both the Android and iOS versions were assembled using native technologies to ensure uninterrupted performance and user experience. All bugs were identified during pre-development and cross-checked to ensure the app ran smoothly. After this, a successful launch on both Google Play and the App Store was executed, and we continued with our ongoing maintenance and updates based on user assessments.
