Two different teams(companies) collaborated together in the project to make the project a success.
The details of everyone’s contributions are mentioned below.

• 99x Technologies Pvt Ltd: Created the design of the webapp.
• TheCodeWork®: We worked on developing this from scratch. Developing reusable, fully
  productized & cloud-hosted applications. Developing the webapp and integrating APIs.
• Humble: The end client of the project who collaborated with all the teams to bring this
  project to success.

The current Beta release includes features for 3 user types including:

the format viz. Videos, Podcasts, and/or Articles. Users can also avail the facility of purchasing
desired SAAS products which are crucial to the operations of the company at a discounted rate.

format viz. Videos, Podcasts, and/or Articles. Creator can also check the performance of their
contents in the dedicated dashboard known as Humble Studio.

Admin Panel: Admin can perform any task like managing end user and creator. They also have
permission to create new contents.

Technical Approach

We built Humble webapp with Monolithic architecture using:

• Django and DRF as our preferred Backend technology for creating APIs
• Frontend has been developed in Nuxt.js and Tailwind CSS
• We have also used Redis as a queue and implemented all cronjobs with Celery
• The production is deployed in AWS EC2 server.
• We have used Nginx as the webserver, supervisor and Gunicorn to run the application.
• Apart from the integartions and other development, we have used AWS SES for Email
  service.
• Apart from that, the project was solely managed on Jira and Confluence to document and
  progress on the roadmaps set forth.

Development Approach

The development approach we followed for the project was to go with agile methodologies for
product development. Every feature had the following set of SOPs to go by in order:

• Gathered requirements from the Humble team
• Mockup UI Designs got created by the design team and approved by the Humble team
• TheCodeWork identified all the Test Cases required, documented, and got it approved by
  Humble.
• After the approval of system design, we developed the feature and deployed it on the staging
  after Unit Test, Integration Test, and Regression Test on the product.
• After the staging deployment, User Acceptance Test(UAT) was carried out.
• Upon successful approval of the UAT, the feature made it to production.

Current Status

Our client had a successful release and under the Beta phase, they are currently onboarding new
content creators. We are currently working with the client to make product more user friendly and helping in achieving their goal.
