Project Summary

Lexogrine provided frontend development and QA for a web-based content management tool, working with Vue.js initially and later switching to React. The team added features, fixed bugs, improved the browser extension's speed, and now a UI developer maintains the product. Lexogrine met development deadlines and adapted quickly to the platform's unfamiliar architecture.

Key Challenges

Scale the product from an MVP to a larger private beta launch.
Lack in-house frontend development and QA expertise and thus required external resources.
Onboard onto an archaic/alien architecture and an unfamiliar framework (initially Vue.js).

Project Deliverables

Frontend/UI development (initially Vue.js, later React)
QA and bug fixes
Browser extension performance improvements and new features
Ongoing product maintenance

Project Solution

Lexogrine supplied frontend development and QA resources who onboarded onto the client's platform, working first with Vue.js and later with React after a platform pivot. The team fixed bugs, implemented new features, and improved the browser extension's speed. The engagement included sprint-based collaboration with the client, use of Jira for tracking, daily/regular updates, and ongoing product maintenance by the UI developer.

Project Outcome

Lexogrine met launch deadlines, enabling scheduled onboarding of customers.
User-reported bugs were fixed, helping the product move forward.
The team onboarded onto an unfamiliar system in under a week despite an expected month-long ramp.
The browser extension's speed was improved and new features were added quickly.
