Project Summary

Distillery is building an iOS e-commerce application for a makeup company, delivering features like photo uploading, product tagging, a large makeup catalog, and one-click purchases. The vendor's iOS developer (Maria) and an additional developer handled development collaboratively with the client's in-house design team. The app launched to the App Store and remains in beta with positive stakeholder feedback and high stability.

Key Challenges

  • Rebuild the app from scratch after new leadership joined the company.
  • Hire high-quality iOS engineers who could meet the client's time frame and budget constraints.

Project Deliverables

  • iOS mobile application
  • Photo upload and tagging features
  • Makeup product catalog
  • E-commerce integration with one-click purchases

Project Solution

Distillery supplied an experienced iOS developer (Maria) to build the iOS app from the ground up, working closely with the client's in-house UX/UI and design teams. The vendor developer provided engineering input early in the process, implemented features for consumer-generated content (photo uploads and tagging), integrated a large makeup catalog, and added e-commerce functionality; an additional Distillery developer was later engaged to implement the e-commerce piece. Communication occurred via twice-weekly stand-ups, Jira, and email.

Project Outcome

  • Working app launched in the App Store and received positive stakeholder feedback.
  • High stability with mostly crash-free releases (only one or two releases had crashes).
  • App remains in beta with limited marketing and a small number of mostly five-star reviews.
