Time to Momo approached Goldmund, Wyldebeast & Wunderliebe to take over the development and maintenance of part of their web and mobile platform. This concerned the parts developed in React, Django, or Native. The client was looking for a technical partner who could address both technical and commercial concerns, finding a balance to achieve both their short and long-term goals.
Time to Momo has both an online and offline business model. Offline, they are known for travel and city guides covering dozens of cities and countries. The online model focuses on a native mobile and web platform for hotel bookings, live city tours via the app, and real-time information about the locations their users visit.
Goldmund, Wyldebeast & Wunderliebe delivered detailed technical roadmaps that aligned with Time to Momo's business needs and wishes. We also rewrote the code where possible, making it faster and more maintainable. The goal was to increase the speed at which we could implement new features and (if possible) reduce the burden of older systems.
Goldmund, Wyldebeast & Wunderliebe rebuilt and launched the new version of the Time to Momo app in early 2024, which was built from the ground up with a simplified, modular foundation, support for the latest iOS and Android versions, and further reduction of technical redundancy. Combined with the work that Time to Momo did on their online infrastructure, which removed further technical dependencies and issues, a faster, more reliable, and robust app and user experience became possible.
Goldmund, Wyldebeast & Wunderliebe also explored the integration of Open AI into the Time to Momo platform to further expand their route and travel wizard, as well as other projects and ideas over the years to enrich the experience on Time to Momo, such as integration into the hotel booking platform.
Our approach for Time to Momo combined modern development methods with a focus on scalability and user experience. We implemented a modular architecture that enables rapid development of new features while simultaneously reducing technical debt.
Through the integration of AI technology, we enhanced the travel wizard, resulting in more personalized and efficient travel routes for users. The native app development ensured optimal performance on both iOS and Android platforms.
The technical implementation includes a modern stack with React Native for the mobile app, combined with Django for the backend. We integrated Storybook for component development and Jest for comprehensive testing. The app was built with a focus on performance, maintainability, and scalability.
