Project Summary

u2i assisted with backend development for a parking web and mobile application, building on an existing WordPress site and addressing issues left by a previous vendor. The team worked with Node.js and AWS (EC2, S3), integrated Parse API, and supported web and mobile code including PHP, jQuery and Swift refactoring. The engagement ran from September 2018 to January 2019 and the client praised u2i's communication and technical expertise.

Key Challenges

  • Overhaul a stagnant app and revive development after work by another firm
  • Provide backend expertise in AWS, Node.js, and Parse API
  • Integrate improvements without scrapping the existing WordPress site

Project Deliverables

  • Backend development
  • AWS EC2 and S3 infrastructure
  • Parse API integration

Project Solution

They used Node.js, AWS (EC2 and S3) and Parse API to stabilize and advance the backend, applied jQuery and PHP on the web/mobile side, and assisted with Swift refactoring for the mobile app. The engagement included two u2i team members (including a project manager) working collaboratively with the client's frontend team.
