We conducted 1-on-1 and group interview sessions with electric vehicle owners to identify and get a deep understanding of the problems they faced when they needed to charge their cars. We created user personas and consumer journey maps.

Together with the client, we held ideation workshops to come up with solutions to specific pain points.

We started with the sketching workshops which was followed by creating user flow diagrams. After that, we moved to wireframing and created a prototype in Figma. We tested the prototype with users, got feedback and iterated over UX design.

After that, we moved forward to create the design system for the app interface. Our team designed the UI and built a UI prototype in Figma. We tested it with users, got feedback on the design and copy, and did iterations.

Our team used React Native to build a cross-platform mobile application. The process was based on the SCRUM framework with 2 week long sprints. At the end of each sprint, the code was reviewed by our lead developer. The development process was test-driven. We used Detox for e2e testing and Jest for frontend unit tests. The code quality was maintained with the help of ESLint and its integrations. The codebase was managed on Github and on each commit or pull request the code was tested automatically. On failure, our team was notified on Slack.

We used Laravel to build the application backend and APIs. The development process was test-driven and based on SCRUM with 2 week-long sprints. We used the PHPUnit library for automated tests and had weekly code reviews to sustain and enhance code quality. Laravel logger was integrated with Slack to alert the team about any errors. We used Firebase to send events and notifications to the mobile application.

We created a middleware to integrate our system with low-level charger hardware APIs. Our middleware translates data provided by the chargers to higher level process logic like the start and end of the charging process, live information about the charging session including energy consumption, live information about chargers including active, busy, out of order, etc. The middleware was implemented using Laravel and is managed using the Nova admin panel.

Our team set up CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions. We had separate environments for development, staging and production. Infrastructure is in cloud and is based on AWS.
