The Problem

The company's car-lease platform ran on .NET MVC. Quotes, lease applications and the portal its drivers and fleet customers log in to all lived in the old app, which made design changes slow and the user experience hard to improve.

The Solution

Apex36 worked in a four-person team (two developers, a project manager and a QA engineer) from December 2024 to August 2025 on a full redesign of the platform and its move from .NET MVC to Next.js. The rebuild covered the public site, lease quotes, lease applications and the driver and customer portal. The new front end uses Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui, with TanStack Query for server data and Storybook for the component library, on PostgreSQL and AWS. The platform is live in production.

FAQ

The whole platform: the public site, lease quotes, lease applications and the driver and customer portal, redesigned at the same time.

In steps, not one big switch. We rebuild one area at a time, keep old URLs working with redirects, and move users over once each area is tested.

Four people: two developers, a project manager and a QA engineer. Apex36 worked full stack within that team.
