Business requirement

The client needed a mobile app to foster community engagement by helping users discover and connect with social activities organically, based on proximity and shared interests.

The client intended to foster a unique social dynamic and experience for everyone by making it easier for people to connect with those who share an interest in an event, who are close enough to care about it, and who most likely want to participate in it based on their interests.

Business solution

AccelOne architected and built the native iOS and Android applications, providing a back-end solution that allowed users to easily find and participate in local events that matched their interests.

Technical solution

The app was built using MongoDB and Node.js for the backend, hosted on AWS, with native development for iOS in Swift and Android in Java. AccelOne used Agile Scrum methodology to manage the project in multiple phases.

The technology stack was as follows:

  • The iOS Application was created using a Native Objective C/Swift 2 application, while the Android was created using Native Java application.

  • Back-end was made via Nodejs exposing endpoints in a full rest API. As for the frameworks for specific tasks, Passportjs was utilized for authentication while Mongoosejs was used for object modeling.

  • Additionally, MongoDB was used for storing events, contacts, and other documents required by the application.

Approach

AccelOne divided the project into sprints, working closely with the client's team to ensure that each iteration met the company’s objectives and provided a smooth user journey.

AccelOne broke this project down into two phases and Sprints, each with three iterations:

  1. Design phase

  2. Development phase

  3. User acceptance testing (UAT)

The team configuration consisted of six nearshore resources: four (4) senior-level developers, including two (2) Senior iOS Developers, a Senior Android Developer, and a Back End Senior Developer, a Mobile QA Analyst, and the Product Owner, who oversaw production and gave precise specifications.

Results

The app successfully launched, providing users with a streamlined way to discover and participate in local events, fostering stronger community connections, and increasing user engagement.

AccelOne’s mobile solution transformed how users engage with their communities, offering an innovative and user-friendly platform for discovering social activities based on shared interests.
