Project Summary

itCraft developed a web-based proof-of-concept note-taking application in Angular that lets users create, group, annotate, and visually organize notes on a zoomable map with autosave and a minimap. The engagement provided the client with development capacity they lacked and involved daily communication with the client’s project manager. The client praised itCraft’s responsiveness and adaptability in a fast-paced environment.

Key Challenges

The client lacked in-house Angular expertise and needed a skilled developer for a POC.
Build a web-based creative note-taking app supporting entries, tiles, styling, cross-referencing, and a zoomable/pannable map.
Ensure entries unused for a period are transformed into gaps to draw user attention.

Project Deliverables

POC web application
Create/Read/Update/Delete entries functionality
Tile/collection functionality for entries
Entry annotation (meta links)
Cross-referencing and assignment of entries to tiles
Drag-and-drop and resize functionality for entries
Minimap preview of the working space
Background autosave

Project Solution

itCraft provided a senior developer to build a web-based proof-of-concept in Angular. They implemented CRUD operations for entries, creation and management of tiles (collections of entries), annotation/meta links, cross-referencing and assignment of entries to tiles, drag-and-drop and resize behavior for entries, a creation canvas for unassigned entries, a minimap preview, and background autosave.

Project Outcome

We were able to help the customer from Austria despite lacking the internal resources.
The developer integrated directly with the customer’s project manager using daily standups.
The client praised the vendor’s openness and responsiveness, enabling effective delivery in a fast-changing environment.
