Challenges we ran into
- Working with Plugins :
As this was our first time integrating plugins into the design workflow, we faced difficulties in identifying and utilizing the right ones for interactivity, animations, and responsiveness. To overcome this, we dedicated time to researching, experimenting, and iterating until we achieved the desired outcomes.
- Handling Scroll Behaviours :
Implementing smooth scrolling for long pages, such as the metro map and ticket history, was more challenging than anticipated. Ensuring it worked seamlessly across different devices required extensive testing and debugging. We resolved this by consulting documentation, using Figma scroll prototypes, and conducting thorough QA testing.
