VIMI App
Full-featured e-commerce app with dual-role access — shoppers browse and order, while admins manage the entire store from a dedicated mobile dashboard.
Overview
VIMI is a full e-commerce mobile app for iOS, delivering a complete shopping experience for customers and a built-in admin dashboard for store managers — all within a single Flutter codebase.
The Challenge
Building a dual-role app that feels native to each user type: customers expect a smooth, fast shopping flow, while admins need real control over products, orders, and users — without switching to a separate web panel.
My Role
Flutter Developer — architected and built the full app, including the role-based navigation system, the customer-facing storefront, and the in-app admin dashboard.
Architecture & Technical Decisions
Clean Architecture + BLoC
Each feature (auth, catalog, cart, orders, admin) is a self-contained layer stack: data → domain → presentation. BLoC drives all UI state, keeping business logic fully decoupled from widgets and making every feature independently testable.
Role-Based Navigation
After login, the app resolves the user's role from the auth token and routes to either the customer shell (Home, Catalog, Cart, Orders, Profile) or the admin shell (dashboard, product management, order management, user management). Both share the same domain and data layers.
