Project Summary
Django Stars built StoryTold, a communication platform for parents and children, delivering a web app and cross-platform mobile apps using React Native. The vendor handled development, UI/UX design, QA, and Azure-based infrastructure; the client praised the team's project management, responsiveness, and the product's UX prior to broader launch.
Key Challenges
- Limited budget required using React Native to deliver both Android and iOS apps
- Need to create a communication platform allowing parents to write stories/messages accessible to children on mobile devices
Project Deliverables
- Web application for the StoryTold platform
- Mobile apps for Android and iOS built with React Native
- UI/UX designs
- Infrastructure implemented on Microsoft Azure
- QA/testing and regular Scrum ceremonies
Project Solution
Django Stars developed a cross-platform solution: a web application plus Android and iOS mobile apps built with React Native. They provided UI/UX design, QA, and implemented infrastructure on Microsoft Azure. The team ran frequent standups and maintained close communication, supporting beta testing and preparing for a paid launch.
Project Outcome
- Positive early user feedback with strong UX/UI since launch (2.5 months)
- Professionals found profile management easy
- Infrastructure implemented on Azure quickly despite vendor inexperience with Azure
- Delivered a high-quality website and cross-platform app meeting client requirements
