To meet the client’s needs, we followed a structured and collaborative approach:
1. UI/UX Design
Figma was utilized to craft an engaging and user-friendly interface. Our design team focused on creating a visually appealing experience while ensuring that navigation was intuitive for both vendors and customers. Key elements such as search filters, vendor profiles, and product listings were designed with user convenience in mind.
2. Development
React Native was chosen for the frontend to enable cross-platform compatibility. This allowed us to develop and deploy the app for both iOS and Android simultaneously, ensuring a consistent user experience across platforms. The backend was developed using Laravel, a powerful PHP framework known for its scalability and security. Paired with **MySQL** for database management, this combination provided a robust infrastructure capable of handling complex queries and large data volumes, essential for a marketplace environment.
3. Testing & Deployment
Rigorous testing was conducted to ensure the app’s stability, security, and performance across different devices and operating systems. We performed both manual and automated testing to catch and resolve any issues before the launch. The app was then deployed to the respective app stores, with ongoing monitoring and maintenance provided to ensure optimal performance post-launch.
Outcome
The Shadi Bazar mobile application was successfully launched and received positive feedback from both vendors and users. The app’s intuitive design and reliable performance made it a preferred choice for wedding planning, significantly simplifying the process of connecting with vendors. The secure and scalable backend ensured smooth transactions, while the cross-platform development approach maximized reach and user adoption.
