Project Summary

Hivekind re-platformed a long-standing desktop legal product (Willmaker) into Willmaker Online, building a reusable forms platform and delivering an initial complex form as a proof of concept. The team used a React/Next.js, TypeScript, PHP, GraphQL and PostgreSQL stack, followed Agile Scrum, and delivered a high-quality site that increased conversion by 70% and enabled new business models and pricing strategies.

Key Challenges

  • Migrate a large desktop application (1,000+ screens) to an online service
  • Build complex, reusable forms not supported by the current platform
  • Reduce risk by proving the new platform through delivering one complex form first

Project Deliverables

  • Re-platformed a forms builder tool to support complex forms
  • Implemented a proof-of-concept of the new platform
  • Built Willmaker Online (online version of the desktop product) with multiple complex forms
  • Extracted a reusable platform from the forms work

Project Solution

Hivekind captured domain knowledge from SMEs, documented business logic, and implemented a proof-of-concept platform to enable complex forms. They re-platformed a forms builder, built one complex form to validate the new approach, and then extracted a reusable platform. The implementation used a React/Next.js and TypeScript front end with PHP, GraphQL and PostgreSQL on the backend and was delivered using an Agile Scrum process with Jira, Confluence, Google Workspace and Slack for collaboration.

Project Outcome

  • Built the Willmaker Online product from start to finish with thousands of screens and no major issues at delivery
  • Business can apply different business models and pricing strategies
  • Conversion rate increased by 70% since launch
