Meet Weihua Wang! In 2021, she founded myBuddy, a nonprofit social startup promoting cultural togetherness with modern formats, such as delivering matching programs and organizing festivals and job fairs.
Weihua came to us with an idea of a brand new web application that matches local people with immigrants, making integrating new people into German society easier.
We worked on the complete myBuddy application from analysis to deployment.
Developing an efficient digital matching algorithm to connect people,
Providing an easy-to-navigate UI and a delightful UX,
Building it as a robust app that works flawlessly.
So we focused on the main challenges:
We had a fixed go-live date even before the requirements were clear
The requirements were finalized only four months before the first community event, leaving no room for mistakes during development.
We also had a fixed tight budget for this project
We had to consider the requirements and create a solid plan. We had only one shot. There wasn't any budget for a delay or a change.
UI/UX design demanded considerable attention. The app didn’t have any references
Without a reference and extra time, we focused on developing a clear matching system and a user-friendly flow to fulfill myBuddy's purpose.
Here are the wireframes that we built for myBuddy:
Creating myBuddy
1
Firstly, we conducted a workshop to gather requirements, conduct primary research, and develop a workflow.
2
We set up a team of two developers, a designer, a QA Engineer, and a project manager. And started working with Agile & Scrum methodology with two-week sprints.
3
We created UI and UX design, ensuring it is friendly and usable. And then started the development of the web application.
4
After testing and receiving final approval from the myBuddy team, we delivered the complete solution on time.
5
The web application was successfully brought to life. In addition, we are providing maintenance and support for myBuddy.
We are proud to deliver a solution that helps to provide social cohesion among all cultures in Germany.
After the initial workshop, we developed the app from scratch in 4 months, within budget.
We helped create a convenient shortcut for social cohesion among cultures, so immigrants can make friends in Germany and easily and enjoyably connect to the local culture.
The considerable success of the platform led its founder, Weihua Wang, to 6 awards (including Red Club x Cartier Young Leaders award).

After a joint workshop session, SKIY31 was able to quickly deliver a UI/UX design matching our existing brand image, which we liked a lot.
We greatly appreciated the collaborative atmosphere, responsiveness, and patience of the SKIY31 team during the whole process.
