Tech Stack
ABOUT THE CLIENT
Based out of Malta, Soccer Manager is the child company of Autonomous Worlds Ltd. which is a leading engineering company with its main focus on blockchain, blockchain gaming, consultancy and other bespoke projects. Our client offers a multiplayer, community-driven football game where users can choose from countless options. The user can be a manager, agent, club owner, share trader, speculator, or any combination of these. It is an open-ended gaming world for thousands of users which provides an experience of a thriving football economy that uses blockchain technology to give you true realism, asset ownership, and total control.
The Problem
The client came across us on their search for people who could handle the development and design of their web and mobile applications. Their requirements were to improve the user experience and the visuals of the existing web app and revamp it while also designing the mobile app and making it tablet responsive.Based on the requirements of the project which needed flexibility to incorporate the needs of the client, we mutually decided to work on the time and material model. The engagement was scheduled to start in June of 2021 and is still ongoing.
OVERCOMING CHALLENGES
One of the primary challenges that we faced along the way was working with Flutter Web which was relatively new for the in-house team at GeekyAnts but they managed to find workable solutions through extensive research about the tech stacks. The next curveball which was thrown at us was working with web3 and blockchain related technologies which are quite new in the tech world which was also handled through research about the topic and experiments which helped us to find the right way ahead. The client also provided us with their personal GitHub repository which played a pivotal role in ensuring that the code which was being pushed was stable.
TEAM ON CALL
After assessing the work which was previously done on the application and charting out a game plan to take the project, the next step on hand was to put together a team which could carry out the design and development for the applications. We roped in three designers for the initial stage of the project which was to revamp the existing application and later on we also put together a team consisting of a testing engineer, two developers to carry out the development requirements. They were spearheaded by a tech load who would ensure that everything was going as planned.
Revamp the user experience of the existing web application through better visuals.
Develop the mobile version of the application and make it tablet responsive.
Implement a chatbot option for both mobile and web versions of the application.
Develop a proof of concept which would help to navigate through the project.
Strategy
We collaborated with Soccer Manager which is child company of Autonomous Worlds Ltd, a leading engineering team to revamp their web application and develop their mobile application while it tablet responsive.
Analysis Planning
After analysing the requirements of the project, we decided to use Flutter Web to build up the desktop version of the application and we based both the web and mobile apps on the blockchain and web3 while ensuring they are open source.
UI/UX
We were required to implement thematic visuals to improve the user experience of the application because of which the team brainstormed and came up with wireframes based on Figma.
Development
The entire development phase consisted of both designs to improve the UI as well as significant development to improve the functionalities of the application. We also implemented drag and drop options, creative visuals, a chatbot and the required SDKs for this open source project.
Testing
Testing was conducted internally throughout the course of the project to check for bugs and was later pushed out for user acceptance testing during its beta stage to align the experience according to the reviews of users.
Delivery
The app is currently in its beta phase with new features being implemented based on the results from the user acceptance testing. With the client being enthralled with the progress on the project, we are gearing up for its deployment in the upcoming future.
FINAL IMPRESSION
The progress on the project is currently ongoing with features being implemented by our team, rapidly tested and pushed to the client who would get back to us with his feedback. With the app currently in its Beta stage, our partner is extremely happy with how the application looks at this point and the dedication that the GeekyAnts team has shown in researching and implementing technologies that are relatively new to them. With everything on track, we are all gearing up for a very successful deployment of the Soccer Manager application in the near future.
