Challenge

The client challenged us to build a page builder Nuxt plugin that would allow him to create new pages for an educational application.

The application was meant to be used by an international corporation - allowing its employees to develop and book educational courses. The client had 3 separate projects in the education field which he planned to merge via page builder.

The plugin should support authorisation, portal management, access control and page navigation. Key elements of functionality were supposed to be: responsiveness and possibility to quickly add/edit new pages without the help of frontend developers.

Solution

Within a month and a half, Epicmax’s dedicated Vue.js development team created a MVP.

The app enabled its end users to create webpages and update their content. After the MVP was presented to the client, it was decided to evolve it into a Nuxt plugin that would help employees who were not familiar with programming to create pages with minimal time, effort and technical knowledge.

Throughout the development cycle a lot of ideas and solutions were introduced by our dedicated Vue.js team. As new features were being constantly added to the project’s roadmap, the core architecture was elaborated to be effortlessly scaled.

Also, a flexible library configuration method was introduced that allowed library tools to be heavily customisable. As the client didn’t provide design mockups, our developers were in charge of the design of the whole project.

At first, our developers joined the client’s team as an extra help to the existing team to speed up the development process of other products. Later we took charge of the page builder’s frontend development.
