Project details

We’re building a cross-platform React Native mobile app for sports fan engagement. Core features include content feeds, short-form video, user profiles, gamified challenges, points/leaderboards, notifications, and premium subscription/in-app purchase. The app will ship on iOS and Android from a single codebase, integrate with an existing CMS/asset pipeline, and use a managed backend for auth, profiles, telemetry, and leaderboards (e. g. , PlayFab or equivalent). Initial build targets a fast MVP/soft launch, followed by iterative releases.
