Lisk is a blockchain application platform on a mission to take the difficulty out of blockchain development. It has spent over two years researching cryptography, developing consensus protocols and designing interfaces people can actually use.
The company’s goal is a software development kit that lets developers build decentralised applications in JavaScript.
The challengeWhat the teams actually needed
Netguru was asked for a website supporting that vision and serving every key audience at once: developers, startups and large companies.
Challenge 01Three audiences, one site
Developers, startups and enterprises want different things from the same pages.
Challenge 02Solutions that scale
One of the main goals was providing something easy to scale rather than a fixed set of pages.
Challenge 03Grounded in evidence
Goals had to come from research into current performance rather than from assumption.
What we did
A modular design system with unlimited possibilities
Research came first, in two phases: onsite workshops with the Lisk team, then expert review and analysis.
Their environment, understood
The workshop phase gathered knowledge about the company’s general environment and its key business insights, through a variety of exercises.
Performance as the baseline
The expert review went deep into the research and collected data on current performance, which became the basis for the project’s goals.
Structure before surface
With research finished and goals clear, wireframing set the structure the design system would have to serve.
Modular, and open-ended
A brand new modular design system was built, which is what allows the site to keep growing without being redesigned.
