Project Summary

fireup.pro was hired to build the web version of a grocery shopping startup's application and a backend operations UI, then shifted focus to building a native mobile app using React Native. The vendor developed backend services in Python/Django, implemented passive-tracking algorithms using AWS services, and built a scraper and database/querying stack. The MVP and prototype helped the client secure external funding and put the company's values into practice.

Key Challenges

  • Build a web application with backend algorithms to allow passive tracking of consumption behaviour
  • Implement databases, a backend UI, and a frontend web app with user profile creation
  • Transition to a native mobile application using React Native to support Android and iOS

Project Deliverables

  • Backend developed in Python/Django
  • Scraper for advanced product search (Scrapy)
  • Databases (MySQL) and Elasticsearch for querying and matching
  • Frontend initially in React and then a React Native mobile app for Android and iOS
  • Backend UI for operations

Project Solution

The vendor built the initial prototype backend in Python/Django, used AWS services for passive-tracking algorithms, and implemented a Scrapy-based product search scraper. Data operations and querying/matching used MySQL and Elasticsearch. The frontend began in React but development shifted to React Native to deliver a native mobile app for Android and iOS. A backend UI for operations was also delivered.

Project Outcome

  • Prototype helped the client secure external funding.
  • The mobile application enabled the client to put their ideas and values into practice.
