Project Summary

Angry Nerds augmented an e-learning platform team to update the website, develop new features, fix bugs, run automated tests, and manage documentation. The vendor worked with the client using AWS-based serverless infrastructure (React front end and Lambdas back end) and handled infrastructure deployment with CloudFormation. The client reports increasing feature delivery and improved team stability after onboarding two full‑time developers.

Key Challenges

Expand the development team to ensure continuity and reduce single‑person risk
Increase capacity to create new features and maintain the platform
Address existing bugs effectively
Ensure correct code and quality from the outset

Project Deliverables

Front-end features built with React
Serverless back-end functions (AWS Lambda)
Infrastructure as code using CloudFormation
Automated tests for each feature
Technical and regulatory documentation

Project Solution

Angry Nerds provided staff augmentation and continuous development support: they reviewed specifications, developed and tested features, handled infrastructure and deployment tasks, and moved work to production. The team worked on a React front end and a serverless back end (AWS Lambdas), used AWS services and CloudFormation for deployment, produced extensive documentation, and implemented automated tests so developers owned QA for their features.

Project Outcome

Increasing number of features delivered each sprint
Improved team stability after onboarding two full‑time full‑stack developers
Contract extended until the end of the year
