Process

Workshop

The discovery workshop is an in-depth analysis of the scope of the project itself and its goals. It is essential for us to understand every aspect of the business before starting the project, so at the workshop, the goal is to define and plan each project phase.

UX

After the discovery workshop, we define personas and create user experience (user flow). The next step is the display of information within the product (sitemap), after which we develop the interface design in sketch form (wireframes). It ends with a defined prototype for the primary device.

UI phase 1

In this phase, we revive the prototype from the previous step and draw eye-pleasing elements in defined colors, with pictures and illustrations to see the final design.

Usability testing

The following step is to test the product from the previous phase with end users. Testing is essential because it saves time in the programming phase and avoids errors that may occur after we launch the product.

UI phase 2

If, during usability testing, some elements did not satisfy our test group, the next step is to fix them according to the feedback. Afterward, we develop other screen sizes (if we are making a web app) to get a product that works on all measures needed (responsive design).

Development

Development is the most complex phase of the process, requiring programming and writing the codes to create a web platform. The development will be done efficiently regardless of the complexity if the previous stages were performed correctly.

Launch

Launch is the final phase of every project. After we made sure that every part of the project was functional and according to the plan, the project is made public, but always with a possibility of iteration and subsequent corrections if needed.

Workshop

The discovery workshop is an in-depth analysis of the scope of the project itself and its goals. It is essential for us to understand every aspect of the business before starting the project, so at the workshop, the goal is to define and plan each project phase.
