Over the past decade, Mu Do (Red Hat) has been the largest and most dynamic swimming community in Hanoi with 500+ members. The leadership found their manual operation no longer sufficiently supported the day-to-day needs of their growing community and exposed many inadequacies for both Mu Do’s admin team as well as members.

Partnering with BiPlus, Mu Do desired to create LoveSwim – a tailored mobile app for their swimming club. LoveSwim was expected to meet the needs of learning, practicing and sharing passion among swimming lovers. Additionally, this app is intended to simplify paperwork and streamline club processes of the admin team.
Struggling with manual processes and paperwork
Relying on paper-based systems, Mu Do faced many difficulties:
-
Paper-based membership management creates complexity and was prone to errors.
-
Exam and result manual tracking was time-consuming and inefficient.
-
Comparing and tracking members’ progress was difficult without centralized data.
-
There was no place to store and easily access swimming learning materials and exercises.
-
Members had limited ways to connect, track advancement or access resources.
Build custom app with optimal tech stack
To deliver LoveSwim with a seamless user experience and powerful yet flexible data handling capabilities, our team leveraged:
-
Kotlin and Spring Boot (backend): For swift, robust backed development and database management.
-
Kotlin and Swift (frontend): For an intuitive and friendly experience across Android and iOS devices.
-
MariaDB (database): For secure member data storage, management as well as ensure data integrity.
-
REST APIs and Cloud Computing (integration and deployment): For seamless data exchange and scalable deployment.
By carefully selecting these technologies for their capabilities, we developed a custom solution tailored to Mu Do’s needs of centralized data management, simplified processes, and flexible data handling.
Going beyond the technical development, we also leveled up the user experience through an optimal UI/UX solution. This has brought a joyful experience that Mu Do’s members have never seen before:
