Project Summary

4IRE provided code cleanup and ongoing development for an esports fan-engagement platform built on the NEAR blockchain. The vendor organized and refactored a messy codebase, implemented infrastructure tooling (Kubernetes, AWS, Docker, IPFS, Terraform), and delivers work in two-week sprints with QA; the client praises their ability to meet sprint targets and strong project management.

Key Challenges

  • The existing outsourced codebase was extremely messy and roughly patched together
  • The team was missing deadlines and needed the codebase organized to meet targets

Project Deliverables

  • Cleaned and organized codebase
  • Ongoing development delivered in two-week sprints with QA at sprint end
  • Infrastructure and tooling using Kubernetes, AWS, Docker, IPFS and Terraform

Project Solution

4IRE organized and cleaned up the client's existing messy codebase and executed ongoing development aligned with the client's product vision. The application is built on the NEAR blockchain and the vendor implemented infrastructure and tooling using Kubernetes, AWS, Docker, IPFS and Terraform. The engagement uses a seven-person vendor team and two-week sprints with QA; communication and project planning were managed via Slack, Confluence and Jira.

Project Outcome

  • Consistently met sprint targets with completed code and QA at the end of each two-week sprint
  • Improved project management and visibility via Slack, Confluence and Jira
  • Vendor maintained productivity and diligence despite disruptions caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine
