The Challenge
The client was searching a solution partner, who can deliver something like a standard a social media features. Client was from a technical background so he wanted to select a partner who can deliver using AWS Server-less, React & Python. Perception System being an AWS consulting partner was proved to be an ideal app development company for their requirement.
We have taken a bit different approaches for evaluating the requirements. We gave a distinct questionnaire for this project to understand the persona in the user research stage. We have run a survey and segregate various relevant features and ask the client to select the most appropriate ones. Our team then took the design thinking approach to serve the user research for the web application.
Storybook
The client wants to provide a central place for Lugelo users to share their experiences with the brand or personal experiences using storytelling techniques in a storybook.
A story can contain multiple moments to it with an image, video, text, document or an audio.
A user can invite his friends to contribute on this story. Eg. a company’s employee is making story of picnic days with friends so he invites his colleagues to add their words & media in different moment.
Timeline
The story is represented to public if user wants to share the story as public. And this story is appeared as a timeline to people. Now, people can like or put comments to it.
The brand has powerful features to bring various story formats on its timelines, such as Snapchat stories, WhatsApp Status, Instagram Stories, YouTube reels, Facebook stories, Skype highlights, Medium series, and much more.
Enable brands to add interesting milestones from its brand history or product history.
