The app was released in 2016 in React Native. and we arrived in 2017.

After successfully completing this task, we have embarked on another big iteration of releasing version #2 with completely new designs and new features. We are responsible for both API development, web admin and mobile applications.
While redesigning the application we were short on time so decided to create a bundle of custom components that will be used all over the project. As a base we've utilized material UI as it allows to use all major components out of the box and is highly customizable allowing us to define high-level theme for the whole application.
