“

Collaboration with Xfaang was spot on from day 1. All the way from the Prototype design of UI/UX down to proposing what technology should be used for a mobile app development. UI/UX designer (Creative Director) assigned to my project was spot on and top of the class. We have figured out the way going forward very quickly, where proposals from Xfaang were absolutely great and with top notch results. Throughout the development process there was great support from Piotr on understanding why certain choices for the technologies had to be made. That being said even for non-technology jedi’s it will be easy to grasp understanding why certain things shall be chosen over others. Development team and scrums were very effective with constant and real-time communication provided, which has minimized time of development. Any next software development project in the future I will not search any place else as Xfaang is the place to go. Extremely customer oriented with a great listening and understanding of needs. 10/10.

Solutions

One codebase - React NativeReact Native provided a unified codebase. The obstacles were with making sure the app looks similarly on both platforms and the integrations with external services established with different APIs and different Google Play / App Store requirements.

Outstanding design - cutting edge Creative DirectorOur highly talented creative director provided competitive design and smooth UX experience, so uPark became a MLP (Minimum Lovable Product).
