The Challenge
What made it hard.
Visitors browse where coverage is worst — beaches, boats and lobbies. Content changes daily and is edited by a non-technical tourism team.
Our Approach
How we built it.
We shipped a Swift client with an offline content cache and image pre-fetch, fed by a Laravel CMS the tourism team owns, so daily edits publish without an app release.
