The main idea of the app is to provide support and professional help to people who want to achieve better results. Empathy, motivation, and support are the main elements in the implementation of the application. Also, our client wanted to develop a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) to test the business concept of Tribe application and publish it on the Apple Store. The idea was to create a universe-like app for athletes, trainers, and businesses to interact, find the needed services, and promote services and products in one place. The app must provide such features as creating a profile, posts, challenges, and communities and facilitating users to engage.
Among the key technical challenges of the project were setting up an Azure database and Firebase, creating various APIs, and synchronizing back-end and front-end code.
The project started with a discovery phase. As part of this phase, we delivered a scope of functionalities to be developed. Functionalities were developed for three main groups of users: main users, experts, system administrators and super administrators. The deliverables of the discovery phase also included use case diagrams, context diagrams showing data coming from each type of user, business requirements, and the value proposition canvas.
The team delivered an MVP of a mobile application and planned to publish it on the App Store. It is a fully functioning app with a basic set of features for athletes, trainers, and businesses to communicate with other users, and create their communities, challenges, and posts. The customer plans to continue the development of the application once he is ready with further steps, ideas, and branding and marketing strategy.
