Examples Of Custom Development Created For Clients

No custom development project is too advanced or difficult for us. Below are a few examples of what we have developed for clients.

Event-Based-Photo-Sharing

Event Based Photo-Sharing Module

We love to see clients think outside the box and look at Mobile publishing apps as more than "just" content. One of our large insurance clients needed to expand their internal communication apps built with MagLoft, to include features that support small events.

Our client would frequently host small events for teams and they wanted a way for event participants to interact with each other. So we built a photo-sharing module for their apps.

This allowed event participants to take photos during events and share them in the app with other participants. Event administrators would review each photo submitted through a custom section built into their MagLoft portal.

Convert-Interactive-Adobe-Content

Convert Interactive Adobe Content to HTML

One of our largest clients came to us with a new challenge. They had been creating content in InDesign for years, using Adobes folio format. This was a great content choice at the time, allowing them to create many interactive content types.

However, since they now wanted to migrate away from Adobe's expensive and rigid app solution, they needed help converting all their content as they had invested a lot of time and energy to re-use it.

So we looked at several options and finally decided to create a unique content converter for our client. We were able to create a prototype within a week which did a great job and soon after we were able to convert all their folio content to HTML content which they could use anywhere.

We took particular care in ensuring that all existing interactive additions to their content were converted 100% to HTML.

Structured-Data-Converted-HTML

Structured Data Converted to HTML Page Design

One of our clients came to us with a unique challenge. They had 80+ city guide apps live in App Stores, and they needed these converted into a single app. The challenge was taking their existing content, and converting it to a responsive HTML format.

Luckily the client had all their content in a structured format (think spreadsheet with columns and types of data) which enabled MagLoft to create a special converter that would feed all the structured data into pre-designed content templates based on the type of data.

This allows the client to seamlessly convert all their existing content (and there was a lot) into HTML and a single app.

Wordpress-Woocommerce-Integration

WordPress + WooCommerce Integration

WordPress is the most popular CMS in the world, so no wonder a lot of publishers rely on WordPress to power their websites. One of the custom development requests we received was to create a smooth integration between MagLoft and WooCommerce for orders online.

We decided that a custom WordPress Plugin was the best approach for this, and would also allow the client to remain in a lot more control. Today they can create subscriptions and products to sell via WordPress and WooCommerce and then also integrate with MagLoft so purchased items are available in Mobile Apps in addition to online.

Augmented-Reality-Module

Augmented Reality Module

One of our clients needed integration to an AR (Augmented Reality) feature to complement their print magazine. The MagLoft team was able to create an integration with the client's preferred choice of AR provider within a few days.

MagLoft added an additional button to the Mobile Apps menu bar which would allow the readers to trigger the AR module and use their app to scan a QR code that would trigger an animation etc.

The integration was completed with a special section in the client's MagLoft publishing portal, from where they could manage the different AR content pieces and URL's.
