Our company would like to explore re-designing our current website with a prototype. We are always on the lookout for innovative and fresh UI and UX ideas that will help our users.

This will involve:

• Conducting background research on our existing web application for the footprint calculator product. We are happy to provide a walkthrough and other resources to help bring student up to speed.
• Identifying key areas of our current wdesign and what areas of focused might return the best results in a redesign.
• Learning and using software design tool figma.
• Creation of a screen by screen UX / UI prototype of a website front end which can be used on all major browsers and be mobile browser friendly.
• Creation of a screen by screen admin ux/ui front end for the back end based off of the provided spreadsheets given.
• Coding the final product in any language (so long as the needs of the company are met) and redirecting the final page to a kajabi completion page to trigger an email drip campaign to the user.
• If time: Conducting UX / UI testing with real potential users for feedback.
• Meeting with the CEO of the app once a week with a progress update and to ask questions. Student must commit a minimum of at least 10 hours worked on this project weekly for a total of 80 hours (8 weeks).
• 80 hours worked – paid to the student directly by Riipen upon the completion of the full 80 hours of work approved by Mangla CEO of Sustainable Life App. Students must clearly track the hours worked on this project on a real time tracking google doc excel sheet at the beginning and end of each period worked.

By the end of the project, students should complete the following list of activities:

• Familiarize themselves with our existing product and have a plan to improve it.
• Familiarize themselves with the Figma design tool.
• Design and build the web version of our carbon footprint calculator (both front end and backend) and have the product ready for the CEO to take to market.

Bonus steps would include:

• Conducting any sort of user testing on the prototypes to ensure ease of use and to collect user feedback.

Final deliverables should include

• Design and build the web version of our carbon footprint calculator (both front end and backend) and have the product ready for the CEO to take to market.
• A final presentation as stated above of the final designs and handing over the database to the CEO to manage from thereon out.

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

• Current product understanding
• Industry standard design tools and applications
• Any sort of branding or styling advice
• Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter
