Vasyl and his team (yual) were engaged in the development, and we acted as intermediaries. They were responsible for the entire front-end development and supported us with the back-end whenever needed, for a relatively short period of time. In parallel, they also hired us to extend the customer’s team, conducted technical interviews, and assisted with any further requests.
