summary
Starts with zero mobile apps in 2014 and reaches six apps on two platforms (soon three) by 2019, after plans to ship in six months stretch to two years; establishes CI/CD from day one, wraps shared code into CocoaPods, creates a dedicated platform team and architects, and sees measurable ROI in 2017 through faster onboarding, analytics and identity features. Confronts merge conflicts and monolithic bottlenecks by building a platform integration layer that splits platform features into independently released modules.
