Project Summary

Deligence Technologies Inc. developed a Flutter-based mobile application for a startup and deployed it to web, iOS, and Android. They implemented features including gifting and user-generated subscription content, integrated third-party APIs such as Google Maps, and assisted with app approval and soft launch testing. The team also performed competitive research (SWOT) and produced brand guidelines for an acquisition. The client praised the app's functionality and the team's communication using GitHub, Google Workspace, and Upwork; the engagement is ongoing.

Project Solution

Deligence used an existing Flutter-based framework to build and extend the client's application, collaborating on documentation and adding user-specific features. They developed and deployed the app for web, iOS, and Android; implemented a gifting system (payments and gifting of user-generated concepts/subscriptions); and provided API integrations, including Google Maps. The vendor also conducted competitive research (SWOT), created brand guidelines (logo, color scheme, typography) for an acquisition, and supported soft-launch testing and Apple approval.
