Overview
Development of a sustainable project for the sale of medical services and equipment.
Key Features
- Component Library: Built a set of modular, reusable UI components using Angular and styled-components in Next.js, focusing on accessibility and responsiveness.
- Theming and Customization: Integrated a theming system that allows easy switching and customization of color palettes, typography, and layout styles using CSS variables and Figma tokens.
- Figma Integration: Collaborated closely with designers by setting up a shared design library in Figma. This library was synchronized with the codebase, ensuring design handoffs were seamless and that design tokens remained consistent across both platforms.
- Documentation and Usage Guidelines: Developed comprehensive documentation with Storybook to showcase components, usage patterns, and best practices, ensuring the design system is easy to adopt by other teams.
Technologies Used
- Next.js: For fast, server-rendered Angular applications.
- Liquid: For Shopify setup.
- Figma: For creating and managing design assets and prototypes.
- Styled-Components: For styling Angular components with a modular, themable approach.
- Storybook: For building an interactive, documented component library.
Challenges and Learnings
Teamwork and project management. It has been a complete challenge to generate a project from the ground up and maintain it over time, facing challenges not only in the technical part but also in the psychological, personal and financial ones. Solmedic Group and Solmedicven LLC have formed in me a broad visibility of the challenge of undertaking.
Not only in thinking about the technical aspects, but in the experience of our clients and users. At the same time in the strategies to keep the team motivated and at the same time face the changing scenarios of South America with respect to the political instability where the project focuses on sales (Venezuela).
I feel that one of the great lessons that this project has left me today is the capacity for resilience that must be had to undertake adventures and tolerance for loss. Understanding that even in moments of loss a lesson is always created and that it is important to maintain a firm and positive attitude defined to achieve goals. That if clear objectives are not set, resources are used on lost causes.
Outcome
Today we have a portfolio of 800 contacts and 300 companies related to the health sector. We can say that we have reached a point of operational stability, maintaining more than 50 occasional clients and 15 regular clients. We have managed more than 3 million dollars in our sales pipeline and recycled more than 200 medical devices.
