Tiivistelmä
The thesis assignment was commissioned by Liveto Group Oy. Liveto specializes in providing tools for event organizers. Some of the main products offered by Liveto include for example a virtual event plat-form for hosting various virtual events and an online store that can be easily integrated into any web page. The objective of the thesis was to develop a scalable, comprehensive moderation panel as a micro frontend module for the existing virtual event platform using React framework originally developed by Facebook to facilitate frontend development. The thesis was carried out as a research implementation project, including multi-method research and software product development. The process began with constructing a comprehensive knowledge base by describing the background of the client company and discussing in depth how the Liveto virtual event platform works. The next phase was the research and examination of various micro frontend frameworks and moderation technologies. Following the research, conclusions were drawn, and most suitable micro frontend framework and moderation features were selected. Lastly, the implementation of the software started with planning and visualising the software architecture, followed by the implementation of the moderation panel’s interface and its logic.
As a result, a functional moderation panel was developed as a part of the existing virtual event platform. All the initially planned features were implemented correctly, and the interface styling followed Liveto’s guidelines. As the deadline for this project was set earlier than the Liveto’s micro frontend framework migration can be executed, the moderation panel could not be developed as a micro frontend module. However, it was implemented as a future-proof and easily detachable component. Further development is required before the implemented software can go into production, as the interface lacks responsive styles for the mobile and tablet devices.
