Project Summary

RichestSoft developed a marketplace mobile app for iOS and Android using React Native for the frontend, PHP for the backend, and a MySQL database hosted on DigitalOcean. Phase one is complete and the vendor is continuing with module-based testing, deployment, and maintenance. The team follows an agile incremental model and the client reports satisfaction with development quality and flexibility, though the US–India time difference has occasionally caused communication delays.

Key Challenges

Client lacked end-to-end project experience and required a team to handle full lifecycle work
Needed a partner to perform development, testing, deployment, and maintenance
Communication and coordination were impacted by a 12-hour time difference between the US and India

Project Deliverables
