Client Background & Requirements

  • Our client Lynx has developed a SAAS product that is a Home Automation Platform. It is featured in the Top 10 Startups of Chicago, USA.
  • The website to be developed was targeted for two kinds of audiences: Property Managers and  Vacation Rentals.
  • The product helps owners remotely operate doors, entrances, elevators, intercoms, garage doors & swimming pools.
  • Lynx integrates over 200+ smart devices of more than 35+ brands.
  • The client wanted us to develop a website that showcases it as a single platform for all home automation needs.

How did we provide solution?

We worked on the project as follows:

Verify Compatibility Form Functionality – Custom Plugin Development

  • The client asked us to develop a custom functionality where people can check if their device is compatible or not by providing their device model number.
  • We developed a custom plugin that will display a form and will have fields like Name, Company Name, Email & Device Name.
  • We created a Device Custom Post type(CPT) that has fields like the brand, device type, featured image & brand logo image. We created a Device Custom Post Type(CPT) that has fields like the brand, device type, featured image & brand logo image.
  • The Device Name text field which will have autocomplete functionality. When the user types, an AJAX request is sent, and matching device entries are fetched from the database & displayed here.
  • Once the user inputs these and clicks on submit, the user is shown the results. If the device exists in the database, the user will be shown the result as: “Yes, We are Compatible” message with a Thumbs Up Icon, Device Image & Brand Image else a Thumbs Down image with a message ” Sorry, We aren’t compatible Yet”. Every time a result is displayed an AJAX request is sent such that each entry is captured and inserted into the database.
  • We created session variables such that the inputs made by the user for Name & company will remain auto-filled for the ongoing session.
  • To be able to export all form entries from the dashboard, we created an options page in the WordPress back-end from where the user can select a date range, and corresponding entries in that date range are exported in CSV format.

Theme Customizations & other Web Pages

  • In the Home page, we created a hero section that will have a featured video, tag line & short description of the product.
  • We created a section that showcases Smart Device Categories that Lynx supports like Doors, Elevators, Entrances, Pools, etc.
  • A section that showcases the brands they support in a carousel format.
  • This is followed by a contact form section.
  • In Features Page, we added sections that depict the various features of the product.
  • We split individual sections into one or more columns such that the feature can be explained with text and supporting content like an image, GIF, or video.
