Modernizing and transforming Quality Management Application with ABP.IO and Raaghu
A large European Client, the creators of a Quality Management platform a decade old, multi-tenant SaaS platform faced a mounting technology crisis. Their application was built on the original Boilerplate framework with a legacy frontend stack that hindered performance, user experience, and maintainability.
The Challenge:
The primary issues included
- Aging Frontend Architecture: The UI was outdated, not mobile-responsive, and lacked modern UX patterns.
- Backend Technical Debt: Built on a 10-year-old Boilerplate foundation, the backend was inefficient and difficult to scale.
- Poor Performance for Large Data Sets: User feedback pointed to sluggish UI behavior when rendering large tables and forms.
- Need for AI Enablement: The client wanted to integrate conversational AI capabilities for enhanced user support and workflow automation.
- Minor Functional Enhancements: They required light feature additions to improve operational workflows.
Our Solution:
Wai Technologies initiated a full-stack modernization project combining Raaghu’s React-based frontend and ABP.IO’s modern modular architecture, with significantly accelerated development using design to code AI capabilities using Pundit AI.
Frontend Modernization
- ReactJS + Raaghu Design System: We rebuilt the entire UI layer using our proprietary Raaghu design system—improving responsiveness, consistency, and usability across tenants.
- AI-Powered Design-to-Code: Leveraged Pundit AI to accelerate development by converting Figma designs directly into production-grade React components.
- Performance Optimization: Refactored list rendering with virtualization techniques to handle large data sets smoothly.
Backend Modernization
- Migration to ABP.IO: Upgraded the monolithic backend to ABP.IO—a modern, layered, and modular architecture built on .NET Core.
- Code Reorganization: Cleaned legacy code, restructured services, and implemented best practices for extensibility and maintainability.
- New Features & Enhancements: Enabled role-specific dashboards and streamlined workflows with new minor capabilities.
We integrated Sonarcube for static code analysis.
AI Integration
- Integrated Pundit AI Chat, a conversational agent trained in the context of the client application, to assist users with navigation, data queries, and documentation support.
Technology Stack
- Frontend: ReactJS, Raaghu Design System, TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3
- Backend: ABP.IO (.NET Core 8), Entity Framework Core
- AI Layer: Pundit AI (Faster development using LLM-powered Design-to-Code and AI Chat Assistant)
- Tools: Azure DevOps, Figma, Visual Studio, Git, ESLint, Prettier
Impact & Results:
Measurable Outcomes
- 10X faster UI rendering for large lists
- 40% reduction in frontend development effort using Pundit AI
- 100% codebase shift to modern ABP.IO foundation
Long-Term Value
- Maintainable, scalable platform architecture
- Integrated design-to-code AI pipeline for faster feature rollout
- Foundation laid for further AI-driven innovations in quality management
Key Benefits
- Future-Ready Architecture: Migrated from obsolete ASP.NET Boilerplate to cutting-edge ABP.IO, unlocking modularity and API-first capabilities.
- Superior UI/UX: Transformed user experience with a responsive, modern design system, aligning with current usability standards.
- AI Enablement: The new solution is now AI-ready with integrated conversational capabilities—paving the way for smart assistance and automation.
- Enhanced Performance: Long lists and data-heavy pages now load up to 70% faster with optimized frontend architecture.
Conclusion:
Wai Technologies helped the client unlock the full potential of their quality management platform. The modernization has not just improved performance, it’s helped them deliver a world-class user experience to their clients. They are now ready for the next decade of growth.
