Technical Aspects
In order to achieve the desired outcomes, such as increased app speed we used native mobile application development technologies like Swift & Kotlin. In addition, we used Drupal CMS because it is great for content heavy and high-traffic websites and apps. Most people think that Drupal should only be used as a web-based content management system, however, it is a great tool to use as the backend of a mobile app development project too. All in all, Drupal is incredibly ground-breaking, adaptable, practical, and secure. Furthermore, Drupal has many standard features that help with content authoring, security and reliable performance. Reliability and security are an absolute must, especially when dealing with a government entity. These technologies together were used in order to cut down costs, due to the ease of integration with the other systems and to maximize the app performance.
Outcomes
A Mobile App solution for Android & IOS platform that took 3 months to develop from initial meeting to launch date. An alumni network with a registration form in order to capture correct data, with an engagement portal to share news, success stories, events, a grants section and even a chat feature where users can communicate with each other.
