Project Summary

Sloboda augmented a Ruby on Rails database and built an admin UI to integrate new embroidery products into the client's merchandising website. The engagement (Nov. 2017–Feb. 2018) produced product displays, pricing, order forms and filtering functionality that assimilated smoothly with the existing platform. The vendor provided a project manager and one developer, communicated via Slack and Google Hangouts, and offered ongoing occasional support.

Key Challenges

Replacing an outgoing Rails developer and finding a qualified Rails resource.
Integrating new embroidery products and reflecting them on the website (pricing, displays, order forms, filtering).

Project Deliverables

Admin UI for product management
Product integration on frontend (pricing, displays, order forms, filtering)
Backend/database updates for Ruby on Rails

Project Solution

Sloboda integrated new embroidery products by developing an admin UI in the Rails database that interfaced with the frontend. They implemented pricing, display, order forms, and filtering functionality for the new products and performed backend/database updates. The team worked with a project manager and one developer, communicated via Slack and Google Hangouts, and provided occasional support and maintenance after delivery.

Project Outcome

Deliverables integrated smoothly with the existing platform and functioned as expected.
Work translated to an intuitive UX with few issues.
Project management was organized with clear communication and adherence to the projected timeline.

Quality of Deliverables

“Their developments smoothly assimilated with an existing platform and function as expected. Extremely flexible, Sloboda works hard to overcome challenges and adjust to different management styles. However, their approach to contract agreements and payment processing could be more intuitive.”
