Did you have any prior development or coding experience?

We are a team of professional Android software developers. All of us have years or decades of development experience.

What was the most challenging aspect of developing mobile app?

Our app is an app that provides live streaming function on mobile. This is perhaps the most demanding app on a smartphone.

Our app captures the camera in real-time, encodes the video, and streams it simultaneously. In addition to this, various effects are applied to the video.
Ensuring performance and quality in this situation is the biggest challenge.
