01 — Context
OpiGo is a Mumbai-based social trading platform. People share market opinions, create polls and follow stock-market insight from other traders.
Its Decks feature lets users subscribe to curated short-term and long-term investment strategies and receive stock recommendations from SEBI-registered experts.
02 — Problem
Retail investors tend to find market context, expert opinion and the means to act in different places. OpiGo puts the conversation and the decision in the same app.
03 — Role
I work on OpiGo as a React Native developer at Ofniinfo Software Solutions. My contributions:
- Built and extended cross-platform mobile features in React Native.
- Developed the opinion-sharing and polling features.
- Implemented the Decks subscription system for short-term and long-term strategies.
- Integrated real-time updates and notifications, delivered in-app and over WhatsApp.
- Rolled features out over the air with Microsoft CodePush.
- Collaborated on web support for Decks so mobile and web behave consistently.

How a change reaches a user

- In-app notification
- WhatsApp message
05 — Engineering
Ship JavaScript without waiting on a store review
Feature rollouts go out over the air with Microsoft CodePush. Native changes still travel through Play Store and App Store releases, so every change is sorted by which side of that line it lives on.
Notifications on more than one channel
Real-time updates and notifications reach users in the app and through WhatsApp, so an update does not depend on the app being open.
Web and mobile stay in step
Decks also exists on the web. I collaborated on that support so a subscription behaves the same wherever it is used.
06 — Outcome
OpiGo is live on Google Play and the App Store.
I do not publish usage figures for it. I would rather leave a number out than estimate one.
