WEKO3 Installation and Set up
We designed the system for good accessibility, and usability for widgets, and to reflect their brand’s visual style consistently.
Customized Design
HELP University wanted a custom design that reflected their branding throughout the new digital library mangement system.
SMTP Integration for Email Alerts
We integrated SMTP with the new system to send scheduled, automated, or manual email alerts to staff members and patrons.
How We Made this Project a Success
Customising Open Source Software
This project required us to change some functionality within WEKO3. That's why we collaborated with WEKO's Japanese team to take inputs, and then implement them as custom solutions.
Standardised Processes
We used the Waterfall Methodology to build this WEKO3 system. We started by making a User Requirement Specifications (URS) doc, followed by a development phase, and then moved to extensive testing.
Assuring Quality through Testing
We employed a number of testing methods to deliver a bug-free system, and ensure the imported data was valid, the system could handle activity surges.We also conducted guided testing sessions to train the client on how they can self-test the new system.
