Bravelab.io

Problem

The main purpose of the project was to create a platform that enables users to buy pilgrimage tickets and also go through the verification process of whether the ticket entitles them to receive a bonus gift.

Solution

The project is based on the Saleor.io platform, which is used to create modern e-commerce applications. We implemented an additional Plugin, which enables generating tickets with a QR code. Thanks to it, the volunteer can verify if the process was completed correctly.

Outcome

The project is ongoing. We are currently verifying the implemented functionalities and working on the further development of the application.

Problem

The client needed more development capacity and knowledge. We were able to offer the client the professional support of our developer to help with their platform.

Solution

We provided a full-time remote developer from Poland to support the client's in-house team in the Netherlands. We developed new pages and features, fixed bugs, and did other frontend work in Vue.js language. We worked with scrum, so we could provide refinements and perspectives daily.

Outcome

Our developer provided a great value, insight, and knowledge as well as a strong contribution to the team as expected. Since all products were of high-quality and were delivered on time, the client was very satisfied with our focus and dedication.

Problem

The client wanted to build his e-commerce platform based on a new and modern solution. Previously, he has a lot of stores based on Magento. The main challenge of the project was to develop a multitenant platform that will allow new customers to set up their shop in a few minutes.

Solution

The product is based on a niche e-commerce platform Saleor.io where the main advantage is light-weight core. We're working on additional admin tools, which can help our client to manage his platform easily.

Outcome

The project is in progress. We are still working on extending the default saleor.io codebase by the client's requirements.

Problem

The client was looking for a partner who could provide resources to augment their development team.

Solution

We supported the client's front-end team. Each of our developers was onboarded through the regular recruitment process. Our developers were a part of the frontend team, ready to support any projects the client was working on. Both of the companies are based in Krakow so we could meet when necessary, however the work was mostly remote.

Outcome

The client set the goal to develop a certain number of features to be available for the October 2019 conference. Thanks to our support, the client was able to deliver those features on time.

Problem

The client needed to implement additional functionalities into the existing web platform, such as payment solutions, offering systems, and integrations with GSA API (public tenders system in the USA).

Solution

One of our biggest tasks was to add a new payment method using authorize.net (there were no available libraries for this). Another one was to integrate the ordering system with GSA API.

Outcome

The project has been online for a few years. Since then, we have provided a few more features to the platform.

Problem

The client wanted to move the purchase process from traditional gift ordering (phone/email) to an online service. The system had to operate on a multi-tenant approach, which means that various product catalogs would be available under the university's subdomains.

Solution

The product is an application based solely on JavaScript. Thanks to the existing API layer, we were able to design modules that downloaded product lists and created API orders. The frontend part based on the AngularJS framework.

Outcome

As a result of several weeks of work, we have created a dedicated StoreFront and implemented the assumptions of the purchasing process. We have also prepared an environment for servicing subdomains.

Problem

The client’s in-house team delivered the photo app (built-in with Unity) and the hardware. Our role was to build backend, frontend, and API layer.

Solution

We developed an application with an API interface that allows storing Client’s pictures into the system along with Panel Control for support and moderation of Client’s pictures content.

Outcome

During the first three months after the launch of the application, users registered over 50 000 pictures. Backend API has over 60 different templates. Users can take selfie pics and send them to their friends by email.

Problem

"Ideas are the beginning points of all fortunes" – Napoleon Hill. As a company where we have a lot of ideas, we needed to create someplace where we can store them in a convenient way.

Solution

We decided to use Slack, which is our main communication channel. Writing commands in Slack is very easy, therefore, we could build our simple productivity tool with less than four hours.

Outcome

We don't have to implement every idea, but we can store them and decide what could help us to foster our growth. As a result, we have almost 100 ideas for 3 months of using it. A few of them we have already implemented. 

Problem

The main challenge was to develop an application model in Django (backend) and Angular2 (frontend) allowing searching for missing people in a database.

Solution

Using the Agile/Scrum methodology helped us focus on the most important project aspects. Due to close cooperation with the client and graphic designer, the entire process went smoothly. Amazon Rekognition for picture recognition enabled us to focus on refining details in the search results. We had three weeks to accomplish the project. 

Outcome

As a result, the client received a well-designed product ready for presentation to investors. Thanks to the implementation of MVP, it is possible to start the second stage of the project and develop an application that will help people and associations in searching for their close ones.

Problem

The client needed updating and maintaining their custom e-commerce platform with developers who have experience with Python and Django.

Solution

Thanks to our experience in similar projects, we were able to develop new features and deliver additional functionalities, such as delivery options and new payment methods, day by day.

Outcome

As a result, the client could focus on a marketing campaign, which sometimes needed adding extra functionalities like rebates module or discount logic.

Problem

Betafence is one of the market leaders in fencing solutions, access control for perimeter protection, and wire mesh products for a variety of industrial applications. The client needed to develop an online price list generator tool that would be connected to the SAP platform.

Solution

Our task was to build a price list generator that would allow generating PDF files based on SAP Codes. The project was developed with Python/Django technologies. 

Outcome

The client received the tool that has been generating price lists since 2015, without the integration from the developers into the core code of the system.

Problem

Facebook could be an important source of information also in the IT industry, wherein multiple groups, we can reach out to job-seekers or people looking for a subcontractor. To simplify the process of sharing the found data, we wanted to develop an extension for the Chrome browser that could copy it to the company's CRM system. 

Solution

The simple extension works by showing a button in each displayed post on any selected Facebook group. After clicking the button, it gets data from the post and displays a form containing: author of a post, the content, link, and date. If the data is correct, it can be sent to the CRM system.

Outcome

As a result, we increased the productivity and quality of the data that are processed every day. The developed plug-in reduces function occupying several minutes to a few clicks. 

Problem

It is worth celebrating big as well as small successes. Following Management 3.0 practices, we decided to create a simple Slack application, thanks to which we can share such successes with everyone in the company.

Solution

To build the command, we used the Flask framework and MongoDB database. The application works very simply by using the command "/success We have uploaded changes to the production and everything works".  

Result

The application stores the history of our successes, which enables us to look at what we have achieved from time to time. Everyone can boast of such success and strengthen the morale of the team. 

Problem

The challenge was to develop a custom-built system in Django for Software House management, which moves the organizational workflow away from Excel. The system aims to collect, store, and manage the data about the company on one platform. 

Solution

Our team built an internal CRM system which combines the aspects of HR, Finance, Sales, Cash Flow, and general team management aspects into one tool. What is more, the platform is integrated with tools, which are used every day, including Jira, Slack, Google Calendar, wFirma, and more.

Result

We developed the system which stores the employees' and clients’ data in a relational database. Thanks to this solution, we can easily access all the needed information in one integrated tool. 

Problem

The project aimed at developing the platform, which operates based on continuously organized lotteries to reward customers in exchange for their purchases.

Solution

We created a Backend API, tablet application, and dashboard for the promotional system. The purchases registered with the Club Card are converted into opportunities in daily draws, which the participants could use by their choice to check the winners' list.

Result

The lotteries are organized in three-month iterations with additional monthly lotteries with different rules.

Problem

The purpose of the application was to enable logging events from different tiers of applications, logging critical errors and debug information, collecting activity of users, as well as storing and displaying the changelog. 

Solution

We developed the application, which enables collecting, processing, and analyzing the events available in one integrated solution, based on Amazon Web Services. The main parts of the architecture include: 

• Event Logger SDK components
• SDK API endpoints (based on AWS ApiGateway / EC2)
• Event Logger Core APP (AWS Lambda)
• RAW History Log (S3, DynamoDB or ElasticSearch)
• Aggregated Data - map & reduce for "big data" storage
• Queue service - for additional actions according to logged events
• Event Logger API - interfaces and services available for other client applications

Result

The application collects data by dedicated SDK components (there are implementations for Python and JS) and retrieves it with REST API. All stored data can be aggregated in several ways with map & reduce algorithms and treated as small indexes within API list methods.

Problem

Swoonery is an e-commerce platform for people who are looking for handmade jewelry. The main purpose of the project was to develop an engine collecting and analyzing behaviors of potential Clients.

Solution

Our team developed a well-designed solution using the Django, PostgreSQL, AngularJS, Amazon AWS technologies. We also implemented custom filters that enable users to easily search for the desired products.

Result

The new functionality based on the smart filters (style, jewelry size, budget, etc.) enlarged amount of Visitors and increased store revenue.

Problem 

The main customer problem was the acceleration of monolithic PHP-based software and the migration from multi-instance to multi-tenant infrastructure.

Solution

The client decided to move selected modules of the existing application to the new app. Thanks to this approach, the platform could work without interruption, and new features were available for new customers. Old functions were turned off after some time.

Result

As a result of the changes, the client has started a more comprehensive refactoring of the platform code by moving part of the product catalog from monolith to microservices basing Amazon AWS. Thanks to this, we were able to start moving platform from a multi-instance to a multi-tenant solution.

Problem

The main task was to develop a fully functional www website for Warka Radler (main brewery business in Poland) by using graphic marketing materials provided by the client.

Solution

The website is built on a subscription model so the client can instantly make updates with current promotions. In order to develop a not typical layout, we decided to use our small CSS framework.

Result

The client received a fully responsive website with an outstanding design. 

Problem

The goal was to transform the company image into a focused software house from Krakow, Poland. We wanted the website to reflect our values and point-out our style of work as well as company culture. 

Solution

The internal team responsible for the project analyzed numerous marketing and sales documents in the research phase. As the work progressed, we decided to personalize such pages as the contact page. From paper wireframes, low-fidelity digital ones, and more fine-tuned versions, we saw the progress. At different stages, we asked co-workers and partners for feedback. Others’ opinions helped us improve inconsistencies. 

We didn’t design all views, nor mobile versions – instead, we let the design agency apply our guidelines. At the last stage, our internal team developed the new website based on Django-CMS. 

Result

The website is the output of a new strategy that we can test and improve in the next iterations.

Problem

Bravelab is a software development company that embraces the Management 3.0 approach. One of the practices of Management 3.0 is public recognition of colleagues that contribute to the organization. Therefore, we wanted to develop an app that enables us to thank our colleagues for their actions.

Solution

Thanks App was developed internally and integrated with the cloud-based messaging platform - Slack. The application allows people to say warm words from any thread. The message lands in the #thanks channel and also appears in a web dashboard.

Result

The advantage of using the dashboard is displaying recent entries and top collectors as well as accessibility from any browser. Since 2018 we've sent over 3000 warm thanks.

Problem

The main challenge of the project was updating the existing loyalty program and integrating API with outside provider LoyaltyGator. The client also wanted to develop an application called Verifier for Android tablets.

Solution

Using an outside loyalty program (collecting purchase points, issue prizes) allowed us to decrease costs of developing a new loyalty application engine and focus more on integrations and additional functions needed for API receivers (www page, mobile application, control panel, and Wayfinder system). The entire system was fully functional while implementing the changes and updates.

Result

Our skills and project management allowed us to deliver the project on time. Providing internal tests enabled us to focus more on communication and application design.

The main benefit for the Client is the possibility to identify users as well as register their purchase at the shopping mall stores. 

Problem

The client needed an application that facilitates entering financial data concerning educational subsidy settlements and eliminates calculation errors from XLS files resulting from the complexity of the file.

Solution

Our team developed a system that improves application usability and eliminates duplicate functionality from the XLS file. Thanks to it, the client has the possibility to log into the system, easily enter the data and extreme cases into the database, configure the database for the organizational structure of local government units, and download reports about the financial year.

Result

We created a system for the management of educational subsidies, which are supported by public and non-public units in the settlement of students. In addition, the application is suitable also for non-technical users, who are not familiar with the complex XLS files. 

Problem

The focus of the project was on developing the tool, which enables creating a new advertisement based on existing ads without the need of exporting them from Facebook and carrying out manual conversion into the user-friendly template. 

Solution

Our team created the tool that enables users to use processed data to retrieve Ad Name, Ad Post-id, and URL parameters and create "post-id" ads in another campaign/ad set of our choice.

Result

Thanks to the implemented solution, the client received the tool that automated the ads conversion process, which enabled them to save time while updating and converting Facebook advertisements.

Problem 

The project focused on creating an application that allows collecting the data about the services provided to clients of the music service platform. 

Solution

The application contains a database of clients and requested services. Additionally, the management of the Music Service can define new instruments in the system, which are then used in the repair form. Service providers have the possibility to change the status of the request, which can be communicated with clients via SMS message.

Result

Thanks to a well-designed database, the client has the possibility to manage the requested services as well as easily inform users about the progress. 

Problem

The client needed to develop a fully customizable CMS, with high-quality user experience, and migrate the content from old CMS systems.

Solution

Our task was to integrate the backend and customize CMS modules, such as events manager, newsletter's campaign composer (based on CMS content), and custom publishing/cache manager. We developed a new magazine platform that consists of a database of over 6 000 articles. 

Result

Nordisk works in a monthly subscription, therefore all updates are done up to date, avoiding technological debt. Dedicated CMS increased the quality and speed of the entire platform. 

Problem

The main goal of the project was the implementation of an e-commerce platform with order and different payment systems. The entrusted task included also entering products into an online catalog.

Solution

We created a very simple design that was written in Python programming language with the Django framework and Saleor platform. Our team also implemented several plugins that were essential to fulfilling the Client’s needs. 

Result

The platform was designed and developed to reflect the brand identity - creating eco furniture and toys for kids. 

Problem

The project focused on developing a new e-commerce platform with modern design and functionalities. 

Solution

We developed a new design for an online shop (also for mobile phones and tablets) with the ability to share user experience of their purchasing between other Mag-Moto’s Clients. 

Result

The e-commerce platform is dedicated to all motorcycle lovers who are looking for accessories and outfits for motorcycles. The platform was created with a simple design that connects all the functionalities that are crucial to keeping users satisfied. 

Problem

The client wanted to develop an internet service platform with attractive offers of luxury hotels and attractions from around the world. 

Solution

Our main task was to implement a portal that is integrated with a wide hotel database and a few different booking hotel providers (e.g. Travelport). The website has been built in Django and has several customized connected modules, which might be also used as independent parts.

Result

The client received an attractive and detailed design website that has a very high rating among platform Users.

Problem

The project was focused on the platform with a wide range of tickets and vouchers - cinemas, concerts, theme parks, trips, etc. Our task was to create integration between the existing client’s ticket engine and specific APIs of attraction and ticket providers. 

Solution

The integrations were created in the form of adapter services written in aiohttp/sanic, which respond to specific JSONRPC calls from the core of the system, make the appropriate inquiries to the providers’ API, and present the data in the standardized format.

Result

The client received the system, which integrates API from various ticket providers. Thanks to it, the client can connect the providers to the network of the global ticket distributors

Problem

Across-Canada Limited is a Group supporting and purchasing automotive parts. One of our tasks was to develop an invoice exchange application between Club Members.

Solution

We developed a tailor-made solution for our client and created the document exchange tool via the Internet. The migration documents system was built in Django/Python (backend), and the application frontend was developed in JavaScript/AngularJS with Material Design. We used an API that allowed easier and faster integration between project layers. 

Result

In the first year, the system has serviced over 60 companies with a database of several thousand documents.

Problem

The biggest challenge of the project was to implement a frontend B2B platform with the catalog for over 20 000 products. Important issues were additional integrations, such as with ERP systems or outside services (online payments, delivery, and tracking systems).

Solution

The separation of the frontend and the backend, through microservices and API layers, enables continuous development of the system as well as efficient updates of individual service modules. 

Result

The main benefit of this project is integration with the ERP system. Modern and simple design, along with high responsiveness, makes the entire platform user-friendly. 

Problem

The client needed to develop one integrated system that enables shopping malls to manage their data such as building maps, users, roles, pages, promotions, routes between POIs (point of interest), which would be easy to use even for non-technical users. 

Solution

We used the latest technological standards of modern web applications and centralized the services distributed on several online tools in order to reduce the time and costs of maintaining many online tools that have been used up to this point. Working together in Scrum with two-week sprints helped us to build a tailor-made solution.

Result

We eliminated the technical debt of the client’s base code. Now, the client has constantly updated cloud-based applications instead of the countless copied instances that are hard to maintain.

Problem

The Forum shopping mall marketing department needed tools to carry out cyclical promotional campaigns related to issuing ATM prepaid cards to shopping mall customers.

Solution

During a short 5-6 week deadline, we had to develop functionalities for registration, verification, and card issuing based on the rules set in the system configuration. The application consists of three components: Backend API, Frontend Panel, and Tablet.

Result

The application has been running continuously in the same configuration since 2017. A well-thought-out database structure allows creating new editions of the loyalty program without the need to involve developers to make changes to the core code.

Problem

The Symplete team needed technical experts to rebuild an Integrated Productivity Suite CRM streamlined into 6 core apps that main function is to track and manage business operations.

Solution

We provided a full stack development team that worked together on the task corresponding to implementation, development, and integration of the core system modules, such as  Human Resources, Task Management, Customer Service, Surveys & Feedback, Accounts, and Sales. 

Result

The cooperation between our teams results in better effectiveness of the product and decreasing the technological debt which was one of the main challenges of the project.
