Process
Benchmarking and Rappi Mobile App Analysis:
Instead of conducting extensive user research, the project leveraged the existing knowledge base by analyzing the features of Rappi's mobile app. By benchmarking functionalities and analyzing user interactions on the mobile platform, the team identified key elements that could be efficiently translated to the web app, optimizing the user experience within the project budget constraints.
Whiteboarding Session:
In a collaborative effort, Rappi's product lead, design team, and engineering experts convened for an intensive whiteboarding session. The goal was to brainstorm and ideate solutions, drawing on the collective expertise to create an efficient and user-friendly web app. This session became a pivotal moment where creative ideas were explored, and a roadmap for the project was laid out, all while considering the tight delivery deadline.
