Sports news native app development with Laravel
We recently got the opportunity to work on a sophisticated sports news app for a client in Canada. Our client’s ideal audience is people who are interested in the latest news about their favorite sports, teams, and players but don’t have the time to get it from the major sports media. Hence, the client decided to build a solution around this problem that will allow users to get the news they’re looking for quickly, efficiently, and reliably.
With the goals and objective of the project, our team embarked on analyzing the requirements to strategize an efficient product for the client to achieve their business success.
Some of the highlighted functionalities for the project included the ability to– share sports news and content with friends and family; get notifications of the latest news; categories to filter news, and save the news to read later. While to reach a broader range of audiences, building iOS and Android apps was mandatory. So, to make a clean and elegant design and navigation for both platforms, we suggested the client use React Native. After getting the approval, our team started working on the project.
The app allows users to sign up using their Google Account or Facebook account to make it easy and quick.
Admin Panel
To manage the entire app, an Admin panel was obligatory to create that would help our client grow their app steadily.
- Dashboard For Quick Analytical Overview
- User Registration Management
- Categorize And Manage
- News Content And Image Management
- Create/Update/Delete News Categories
Problem
Sports news apps are useful for keeping up with the latest happenings in a specific sport or league. But the client wanted to build a solution that allows users to discover the best stories and videos, share articles with their friends, and keep up with the latest scores and standings. Clearly, it was not easy to accomplish all the project requirements, but our team made it happen eventually, overcoming mind-numbing issues, such as:
- Creating an engaging experience for news readers;
- Streamline high-quality content delivery;
- Making it easy for users to navigate the app and find the content they want;
- Real-time news notification to keep sports fans updated with the latest happenings;
- Enabling users to save the news for later and share the news with friends.
Challenges
The fantasy sports app is supposed to deal with a lot of data to function properly and keep the consistency of the content quality across different platforms. At the same time, user interface and experience are paramount aspects of the app. Focusing on multiple areas during app development is always challenging but not if you have the right expertise. That’s why Techtic understood the project thoroughly and assigned experienced developers for this project.
Result
Ultimately, we created the app with cutting-edge technology, meeting our client’s expectations and achieving a seamlessly functioning Sports News App. After testing and launching, the app soon started producing results. The client began to witness a growing number of sports fans who loved following news on the fantasy sports app on both Android and iOS platforms.
