PDE: web platform and apps for publishing promotion
The apps PDE, a Feltrinelli Group company, uses to organise book presentations, share internal documents and follow new releases with its sales agents, plus the maintenance of its website.
- Web platform
- Website
- Mobile app
The client
PDE srl, a company of the Feltrinelli S.p.A. Group, was founded in the 1970s and is one of the most important publishing distribution companies in Italy.
Objective
PDE was looking for apps to automate the creation of book presentation events and to share and archive internal documents.
Event management app
We developed the event management app that allows publishers to upload content (covers and more) and define events related to book promotion. Confirmed events appear directly on the institutional website of PDE.
Document management app
We implemented the document management app, where administrator users can upload different types of documents such as calendars, order slips, reports and forms. Through permission management, they decide each time which types of users can view them.
A book a day
In addition to the web applications, we created on the PDE website the section 'A book a day', with reviews and books recommended by the editorial staff.
Website maintenance
Our work on the maintenance and evolution of the institutional website continues.
Event management app development
The app is split into Node.js microservices, with a React interface and a MongoDB database that also stores media content and documents.
PDE rollout
PDE rollout is the platform PDE's agents use to manage new releases. It has the same Node.js microservices architecture, with a React interface and a MongoDB database, plus a React Native mobile app for iOS and Android.
