Development

4 months

During the development phase, our mission was to breathe life into the previously crafted designs and functionalities, transforming them into a high-quality, operational app. We utilized React Native for its cross-platform capabilities to ensure a consistent and engaging user experience across both Apple and Android devices.

A major undertaking was the integration with Husse's existing Magento API, which involved managing a large volume of data for synchronization. Localizing the app was not just about translating text but also tailoring the product offerings to meet the distinct needs of different markets, which was crucial for Husse's diverse customer base.

We designed the app with an offline-first approach to provide continuous functionality, making it a reliable companion for the sales team, regardless of network availability.

Quality Assurance was integral to our development process, with a rigorous testing regime that maintained our high standards throughout. The end product stood as a testament to Husse's dedication to quality and efficiency, providing their sales force with a tool that was as dependable as it was intuitive.
