Our Approach

Legacy System Analysis

Custom Badge Design Functionality

We implemented advanced customization features that allow users to design badges by selecting colors, adding custom text, modifying text lines, adjusting background colors, and choosing special background designs.

The challenge

Migrating from a Legacy System

Transitioning from the client’s old system to a modern platform was a major challenge. We needed to maintain existing data integrity while redesigning the site to support new features and a seamless user experience.

Maintaining a Clean, Structured Design

While implementing the new custom theme, keeping the website’s structure organized and scalable was critical. This ensured the platform remained intuitive, easy to navigate, and ready for future enhancements.

Database Migration & Product Configuration

Moving product data, including all categories, subcategories, and customization options, required careful planning. Real-time previews and accurate product configurations are needed to work flawlessly after migration.

Real-Time Product Preview

Allowing users to see instant updates while customizing badges or other products posed technical challenges. The system had to be responsive and fast to provide a smooth and interactive experience.
