Case Study: welearn GmbH launches a custom React Native video streaming app with Grinteq

welearn launches React Native app in 8 weeks with Grinteq

welearn GmbH, a leading European e-learning platform for animal lovers, faced the challenge of needing to launch an MVP for their wehorse video streaming app within just eight weeks. They lacked in-house React Native expertise and needed to quickly find qualified developers to overcome bugs and limitations in their initial prototype. They engaged the vendor, Grinteq, for React Native development services.

Grinteq’s developers migrated the app from Expo to clean React Native, enabling new functionality and solving critical issues like video playback on all Android devices. They forked the video library to add native modules for downloading and offline playback, improved UI/UX for stability, and eliminated video freezing. The solution allowed welearn to launch on time and created a flexible codebase for launching future branded apps, significantly cutting long-term development costs.
