Problem Statement
The client sought to upgrade their web and Smart TV apps by migrating from Angular to a more scalable and flexible React.js framework. The goal was to modernize the platform, enhance performance, and build a reusable component library to streamline future development, all while ensuring a consistent, engaging user experience across both platforms.
Challenges
- Seamless Migration: Transitioning the existing complex Angular setup to React without disrupting ongoing operations on both web and Smart TV platforms.
- Reusable Components: Building a library of modular and customizable components to support future feature expansions across various applications, including TV interfaces.
- Performance Optimization: Ensuring that the new React framework not only matches but also enhances the platform’s performance and scalability on both web and TV.
- Cross-Platform Consistency: Maintaining design consistency across web and TV platforms while integrating third-party tools and legacy systems.
Our Solutions
