  2. The necessity to find and import an appropriate initial content
  3. Use of high-performance servers to provide an instant content delivery to the end user
 

Solution

Main features of the project

After all the requirements were set and analyzed, our development team got to work.

Implementing a heavy video processing functionality

Ayoo heavily relies on the functionality, which is called an in-app Duet. Basically, Duet is two videos tied together in order to allow people in different places to create a left-right dances comparison which is 100% synced to one another.

Building the management console for the app

Since Ayoo Dance is a social network, we had the need to control the whole application from the single source which evolved into a super-admin panel. It allows to gather user data, have full control over tutorials and hand-crafted notification system, and many more.

Setting up a voting feature

Feedbacks from the app’s audience revealed that users want not only to dance with each other but battle and vote for the best performance. To give users what they want, we introduced a battle mode allowing to vote for one or another contestant.
