About the Client and their requirements
The main goal of ISKCON is to change one’s material, self-centered identity into a spiritual identity of unwavering love. ISCKON Chennai, our client, with a great number of followers has been spreading the word of the Lord for a number of years.
When the pandemic hit in 2019 and the lockdown had begun, they wanted to develop an application that would help the devotees study the Gita at home. Thus, the idea of Study Gita originated and since we have professional experience in developing similar Learning Management Systems, they contacted us.
They wanted us to develop a highly insightful LMS that provides a simplified and thematic study of the Bhagavad Gita. The primary requirement was English, Hindi, and Tamil language support, live classes and workshops, quiz for self-evaluation, feedback reports, certification, etc.
Solutions we offered to the Client
The client was quite clear about what they needed, and after fully comprehending their requirements, our business team created an SRS document. The document was to provide the client with an understanding of the structure and features of the mobile app.
Subsequent to this, our development team researched and implemented the best solution. The app supports three languages and courses are available in English, Hindi, and Tamil. Video courses are divided into sessions. The Users can also enroll themselves in live classes and workshops in the app. Study Gita offers certified courses and is integrated with interesting quizzes and progress reports for self-evaluation.
Challenges faced
Krishworks primarily started as an EdTech Company and are driven towards improving the quality of education. We have developed nine Learning Management Systems and consider ourselves proficient in the field. Over time, we have learned that every project has its share of difficulties and our team has professionally overcome each one that has come their way.
Some of the challenges we faced included recurrent changes in the UI/UX design. The team’s first application to use AWS was Dorabhai. It was exhilarating to learn a new concept even though understanding the optimization of AWS took longer than anticipated.
