In 2017, the HITN network was nominated for three Emmy Awards in the arts, community, and public service categories. We have been Hired by HITN to work in the development of a backend API for the Learn and Explore Game that was originally developed by another company specialized in Games. They were in the need for a backend to Register users Sync data between devicesProvide new metadata for games (CMS for contents of the game)Store users metrics and statsGenerate redeem codes and be able to use themManage user profiles We worked hard closely with the HITN team to accomplish COPA and ESRB regulations. To implement this solution we have worked with Laravel and Vue.js, Laravel was for the backend development and to provide a REST full API. Vue.Js was used to create the frontend like an SPA that was using the API (also used by the Game) and it was embedded into the game to extend the user accounts features.

Latam/Brasil Sites Migration
A&E Networks is an American multinational broadcasting company. The company owns several non-fiction and entertainment-based television brands, including its namesake A&E, History, Lifetime, FYI, and their associated sister channels, and holds stakes in or licenses their international branches. Initial StatusA&E had three brands, History, A&E and Lifetime, in two markets, Latin America and Brasil.For this, A&E six sites, one for each brand in each region, running in Drupal 7. The sites had a lack of maintenance, modules out of date, bad performances and after several engineers and consultants that were doing modifications without a procedure over the years, the sites became unmaintainable.They were looking for a new implementation, with a complete content migration, new look and feel and an improved UX for the users. Solution42mate presented a proposal to migrate the sites to Drupal 9, with a multi-site configuration, using the latest modules and Drupal features. The idea was to deploy all these sites on AWS with an auto scaling configuration and all deployed using Terraform (IaC).All the new rebranding and UX was developed by our design team using AdobeXD to present functional prototypes of the proposed site.The Drupal 7 version had 49 content types. The new version only had 5 content types and 6 block types. This had a direct impact on the editorial team making it easy to create and edit content on the site. Big part of this optimization was the Layout Manager module that allowed us to create flexible landing pages with almost no effort.Another big win of this work was the implementation of AMP and Instant Articles for better content distribution on the Social Networks and gaining more visitors on the site.Nowadays we continue working on the site maintenance, creating new features and improving the sites in every possible way.
