Publiq

The publiq platform is where organisers and audiences find one another

Publiq

Overview

With publiq, local authorities and organisers gain a better understanding of their audience, people who want to participate in leisure activities.

Trial and Error

When it was time to build their new application, publiq decided to partner with a development agency. To manage the complexity of the business requirements, the team smartly chose to use event sourcing, an advanced technical solution.

The initial partner was able to lead the project for a handful of years, adding additional systems over time. Then, unfortunately, they went bankrupt. At this point, publiq was in a difficult position.

Call in the Reserves

Madewithlove joined the team in a hybrid capacity, knowing that mentoring publiq's engineers would be essential to their long-term success.

A hybrid team consists of both internal and external developers working together on a daily basis. This process is guided by an experienced CTO in residence or engineering manager so common mistakes are easily avoided.

Event Sourcing and the Ecosystem

To accommodate the broad ecosystem and create a tight connection between the different components, event sourcing is used. This helps to minimise and manage domain complexity found in the code.

With our knowledge, publiq engineers could continue building on the system they had while avoiding an expensive rewrite. Over the past 2 years, knowledge about how to work with event sourcing has steadily transitioned from madewithlove to the internal engineering team.

What they said

At publiq, we value sustainable and stable software and that is exactly what the engineers of madewithlove provide. At the very start of every project, we involve the madewithlove team (with product managers and developers) so we can search for the real added value.
Sven Houtmeyers
Technical Lead (CTO)
We now have stable and performant products that users love, so the impact of the collaboration is well proven.
Sven Houtmeyers
Technical Lead (CTO)
Together with madewithlove, we created a high standard of quality which includes consistent, readable, well-documented, and tested code which we would like to keep for years.
