// About the Project
Project Overview
START is a groundbreaking intermittent fasting app that uses cellular science to promote weight loss without changing diet or exercise. The client's primary objective was developing a product inspiring people to pursue healthy lifestyle goals with ease.
Shayan Italia Private Limited was at the beginning of their startup journey and needed to validate their concept with minimum investment. One senior frontend developer assumed multiple responsibilities to keep costs manageable.
Using Firebase for a serverless backend, UppLabs developed a top-notch MVP managing user authentication, real-time data updates, and analytics without traditional backend overhead — delivering 30% faster than required.
