ClickUp partnered with LiveLoveApp to rapidly improve their web app architecture

ClickUp is a unicorn startup that enables customers to keep all of their work in one place - and they are growing fast! This demands building at scale: reducing build time, accelerating innovation while reducing technical debt, and maximizing runtime performance.

LiveLoveApp collaborated with teams at ClickUp and external contractors to vastly improve the architecture by leveraging Angular's Component DevKit and NgRx for state management.

LiveLoveApp architected the largest legacy application migration to the web for Santander Consumer USA

Santander is a multinational financing and banking organization. The Santander Consumer USA subsidiary offers auto loans and other financial products in the US. Santander Consumer USA partnered with LiveLoveApp to migrate their legacy application for managing auto loans to be cloud ready.

For the first phase, Santander engaged LiveLoveApp to conduct an analysis and provide a roadmap for migrating their legacy application to the web. LiveLoveApp conducted an architecture review and provided a detailed plan for migrating the application to Angular. Throughout the analysis phase of the project we worked with senior leadership, architects, engineers, users, and agents to identify, evaluate, and recommend a migration solution.

LiveLoveApp was hired as the lead architects for the migration project that followed. Over the course of the project, we worked with the development team at Santander and engineering resources with our partners to design, build, document, and migrate users from the legacy application that was delivered via Citrix to a web-based application built with Angular.

This project required technical leadership to drive innovation, and Santander Consumer USA was able to sunset the legacy application and move to a modern web application that is cloud ready.

FAQs
FAQs
How do I analyze my current web app architecture?

We start with an architecture review. We will analyze your current web app architecture to identify performance bottlenecks and opportunities for improvement. We will provide a detailed report that outlines the current state of your architecture and recommendations for improvement.

How do I improve my development velocity?

Development velocity can be measured using the following metrics:

  • Deployment frequency
  • Lead time
  • Time to restore
  • Change failure rate

Let's break each of these down.

Deployment frequency is the number of deployments per unit of time. This metric is important because it measures how quickly you can get new features and bug fixes to your users.

Lead time is the time it takes to go from code committed to code successfully running in production. This metric is important because it measures how quickly you can deliver value to your users.

Time to restore is the time it takes to restore service when a failure occurs. This metric is important because it measures how quickly you can recover from failures.

Change failure rate is the percentage of deployments that result in a failure. This metric is important because it measures how reliable your deployments are.

We can help you improve your development velocity by optimizing your architecture, implementing best practices, and providing training for your team.

How do I migrate my legacy application to the web?

Migrating a legacy "thick client" application to the web is a complex process that requires careful planning and execution. We recommend starting with an architecture review to understand the current state of your application and to identify opportunities for improvement.

In many cases, we recommend a phased approach to migration. This allows you to deliver value to your users quickly and to reduce risk. We can help you develop a migration plan that aligns with your business objectives and technical constraints.

How do I build a cloud-ready web application?

Building a cloud-ready web application requires a deep understanding of cloud systems, web technologies, and software architecture. We can help you design and build a web application that is fast, secure, and scalable.

We have experience with AWS and GCP. We recommend serverless architecture for most web applications because it provides scalability, reliability, and cost savings. We can help you evaluate your options and choose the right cloud provider for your needs.

How do I share code between my web app and backend?

Great question! Sharing code between your web app and backend can help you reduce duplication and improve maintainability. We recommend using a monorepo to share code between your web app and backend. This allows you to share code without introducing unnecessary dependencies.

What is serverless architecture?

Serverless architecture is a cloud computing model that abstracts the infrastructure management from the developer. In a serverless architecture, the cloud provider manages the infrastructure, and the developer focuses on building and deploying code.

What is the process for working with LiveLoveApp?

We start with a discovery call to understand your business needs. We then provide a proposal that outlines the scope of the project, timeline, and cost. Once the proposal is accepted, we start the project with a kickoff meeting to align on the objectives and deliverables.

Many of our projects start with either an architecture review or a design sprint. An Architecture Review is a deep dive into your existing codebase to identify performance bottlenecks and opportunities for improvement. A Design Sprint is a collaborative workshop where we work together to define the problem, generate user stories, and a project plan.

How do you ensure that the project stays on track?

We use an agile methodology to ensure that the project stays on track. We break the project into sprints and deliver working software at the end of each sprint. We also have daily standups to ensure that the team is aligned and that any blockers are addressed quickly.

How long are most projects?

Our projects range from 3 months to 12 months. We have worked with clients on a project basis, as well as on a retainer basis. We would love to talk through your specific needs and provide a proposal.

How do you handle maintenance and support?

We offer maintenance and support packages for all of our clients. Most of our clients opt for a small bucket of hours that can be used over the coming weeks and months to ask any questions and to pair up as necessary.

What is the cost of working with LiveLoveApp?

The cost of working with LiveLoveApp varies depending on the scope of the project. We provide a proposal that outlines the cost of the project, and we work with you to ensure that the project stays on budget.

We are software architects. This means that we are very efficient at our work. As such, our rates may be more than other developers or consulting agencies you have worked with in the past. We strongly believe that we deliver incredible value at our rates. In other words, you get what you pay for.

Is it just the three of you?

Yep! We are a small team of software architects. We also have a network of developers that we work with on a project basis.

We believe this is a strength. We are really good at what we do.

We are hungry for AI projects

We can't stop thinking about how AI changes the way people explore, visualize, and act on complex information—all through the power of natural language.


We seamlessly blend advanced AI capabilities into your data grids and visualizations. Imagine simply asking, "Which products had the highest sales last quarter?" and watching as filters, charts, and dashboards adjust instantly—no code or cumbersome menus required. We know how to connect grids to large language models to make data interaction effortless and insightful.

Now imagine a software team that's fully AI-accelerated. The team leverages the best: ChatGPT for brainstorming and content generation, Cursor for intelligent code completion and scaffolding, Warp for lightning-fast terminal workflows, and more. That's the team at LiveLoveApp, and we can move mountains fast.
