LookLook is an end-to-end survey platform that curates highly qualified participants and engages them to take custom questionnaires. Together with a UI/UX agency from NY, we created an intuitive solution without losing flexibility or functionality. The platform allows to create, moderate, and analyze studies, as well as recruiting participants and chatting with them. We rewrote the frontend and backend platforms using a modern technology stack — Node.js in conjunction with Vue.js+Nuxt.js based on Amazon services. We chose a combination of Node.js, Vue.js and Nuxt.js technologies as an already well-proven stack. One of the pros was Vue.js being able to provide a convenient way to create scalable applications. It uses the concept of components, which allows the creation of reusable components, making it easier to maintain and expand the project in the future without incurring large costs. In addition, one of the client’s requests was to create a progressive web app, which is done quite easily with Nuxt. We also used Amazon Web Services (AWS) to provide automatic scaling. In particular, we have implemented the following solutions: - Amazon Elastic Load Balancer (ELB): A load balancer that distributes incoming requests across multiple instances of our application. This allows for high availability and even load distribution. - Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS): Containerizing our application with Kubernetes managed by the EKS service. This provides ease of deployment and management of containers, as well as automatic scaling depending on the load. - Amazon RDS allows us to manage a relational database without having to worry about its infrastructure. It also provides the ability to automatically scale the database based on data volume and load. To sum it up, these Amazon AWS services complement our technology stack and provide automatic scaling and high availability across the entire application. We’ve redesigned the interface The old solution could not boast of intuitive interface elements and had a large nesting of objects making it hard to understand. Frequently used pages were hidden behind a large number of transitions and buttons. The entire UI of the project was redone taking into account modern trends and focusing on good UX. Now users can quickly find the sections they are interested in and conveniently use the platform itself: organize participants into groups, communicate, analyze data.
