The client and the challenge
Dokkz is a blockchain startup based in The Hague, Netherlands. They have developed a platform that utilizes blockchain technology to enable users to digitally sign documents and verify their authenticity by assigning a unique hash to each one. When the client approached us, their existing platform needed to be completely redone, improved, and extended with several new features.
The project
Our engagement with Dokkz began with a comprehensive review of their existing codebase. From this analysis, we were able to draft a detailed roadmap for the continued development of the platform over the course of several months.
With the roadmap in place, we set out to completely redesign the software architecture and implement an improved version of the application. Our plan of action was to first launch a minimum viable product (MVP) and then add additional features within a set timeframe.
Some of the key features we implemented include:
Digital signing functionality with support for Electronic Signatures and Seals, conforming to the European eIDAS regulation
Custom subscription management integration using the Mollie API
Enhanced security and authentication mechanisms
In addition to the core application development, we also handled the DevOps and deployment processes to get the improved Dokkz platform live in a production environment.
Technologies used
The Dokkz platform was built using a technology stack centered around the Laravel framework for the backend, combined with React for the frontend user interface. To facilitate the blockchain-based document validation, we leveraged the Bitcoin SV network, integrating it into the platform using ExpressJS.
Overall, our work with Dokkz has resulted in a significantly more robust, feature-rich, and secure platform that is better equipped to serve the needs of their growing user base.
