Iwaco

IwaClub is the name of the mobile e-commerce application we developed for our customer on the Front End.
The application also includes a loyalty program for customers

Device and browser compatibility:
React Native, the language used, certainly enables a native experience on different platforms, but cross-device and cross-browser compatibility was a challenge.

Performance optimization:
Performance is crucial for an e-commerce application. Constantly making sure to optimize component rendering, avoid unnecessary rendering and use techniques like lazy loading to improve loading speed was essential.

Application state management:
The state management flow in React Native is quite complex. Choosing wisely between local state managers, Redux or the context API according to the specific needs of our client’s application was important.

Avigation between screens was also a tricky point.

Data security :
Our customer’s e-commerce application handles sensitive data such as payment information. Implementing robust security practices, such as data encryption and the use of secure protocols for transactions was a must.

External API integration:
Integration with external APIs, such as payment gateways or order tracking services posed some challenges.

Device and browser compatibility:
We carried out tests on a wide range of devices and browsers to identify and resolve compatibility issues. We also used tools such as BrowserStack or Appium to automate testing on different devices.

Performance optimization:
We used profiling tools (such as React DevTools) to identify performance bottlenecks. We implemented conditional rendering, lazy loading and other optimization techniques to improve performance.

Application state management:
CNWe chose wisely between local state managers, Redux or the context API, depending on the complexity of the application. The Redux Toolkit libraries are used to simplify state management.

Screen navigation :
We used React Navigation to simplify navigation between screens. We divided our application into logical modules and used navigation separately for each module.

Data security:
We have used secure protocols such as HTTPS. We also encrypted sensitive data, such as payment information, using appropriate libraries. All this while following DevSecOps security best practices to avoid vulnerabilities.

External API integration:
We have carefully studied the documentation of external APIs in order to handle errors appropriately.
