Web and Mobile App Development

detailed requirements gathering

We start by gathering detailed requirements that will shape the foundation of the product. From your requirements, we develop a comprehensive function matrix and later the flow of the entire user experience of the future mobile or web application.

storyboarding

Usability is key. We work together with you to create detailed storyboards that reflect the flow of the website or application. From here, we can plan while keeping in mind the end customer’s needs and requirements. We will go through revisions of the storyboard as necessary.

software requirements specification

At this stage, we use broad descriptions for the features to determine the necessary major system components. Some system components to consider: mobile app, remote servers, databases, file systems, server hardware. From here, we generate a system block diagram and formalize how each feature will work. Then we will determine all the use cases and generate use-case diagrams. We will constantly get your input to finalize the specifications until approval.

design

As the years have gone by, standards have drastically changed. Our experts are proficient in the language of design and user experience and have created unique solutions for our customers as the times have evolved. There are many different software platforms available to accomplish a specific task. For example, a web application framework is a lot different from a mobile app development framework. For each category, there might be dozens of similar platforms which could all accomplish a task, but each will have its own set of advantages and disadvantages. We will provide recommendations when appropriate to assist in the decision.

development and testing

If necessary, we will use our knowledge along with the framework, chosen language documentation and industry best practices to design a system architecture. We will generate class diagrams, write unit and integration tests to express how you expect the system to behave. We will validate that the code passes each test and there are no regressions as the project progresses. Depending on the size of the project, customer input may be needed at each milestone to verify everything is on track.

documentation

As drastic changes become less frequent and the project approaches completion, time should be taken to write a user manual as well as code documentation where necessary. We will ensure the code is consistently formatted, variable names are descriptive, and structure is clear and well organized.
