Project Summary

TechWings (formerly Mentalstack) developed a medical wearables company's web application, implementing a React-based frontend (with Redux/Saga) and backend services using .NET Core. The engagement began in September 2019 as a short-term effort to complete and launch key features and has continued as an ongoing partnership. The client praises the vendor's developer quality, responsiveness across time zones, strong project management (Jira), and cost-effectiveness compared with onshore teams.

Key Challenges

  • Integrate with the client's internal team to develop the web application.
  • Complete and launch key features within the initial short-term engagement.
  • Adapt to changing priorities and tight deadlines common to a startup.

Project Deliverables

  • Web application
  • Frontend implemented in React
  • Backend implemented in ASP.NET Core
  • Key feature releases

Project Solution

TechWings (formerly Mentalstack) worked primarily on the frontend and also contributed to backend development for the client's web application. The vendor implemented the frontend using React with React Redux and Redux Saga and used .NET Core for backend development. The engagement started as a short-term effort to complete and launch key features and evolved into an ongoing partnership. The vendor's team includes a project manager (Anna) and typically 2–3 developers; they used Jira for project management and communicated via Slack and Teams.

Project Outcome

  • Vendor accommodated shifting priorities and tight deadlines.
  • High-quality developers who provide suggestions and integrate as part of client's team.
  • Strong project management and responsive communication across time zones.
  • Delivered work quality comparable to onshore firms at lower cost.
