After evaluating the entire scope of the work,
Expedux recommended 3 phased PET (Pilot En-
gage and Transform) approach for the overall
development to go-live.
Pilot Phase:

and decided to go with PHP as a core technology,
Symfony as core framework and Angular JS as front
end

that was scalable and robust
• Identified the necessity of building custom
frameworks and plugins and aligned it with the
overall development strategy

management, group management and event
management modules

preferences, get tips, manage their kids and
finding right activities for kids
