Chinafy your apps + Lessons you can steal from China
summary
Built an emergency coronavirus database for Chinese authorities and repeatedly deploys apps behind the Great Firewall, so expect concrete steps: use WeChat mini programs, integrate Alipay and WeChat Pay, host in a Chinese cloud or Azure Mooncake, and support QR/WeChat-QR or SMS auth flows. China is mobile-first — 90% mobile purchases — with 1.4 billion transactions on Singles Day; WeChat has ~1.2 billion users, DingTalk hits ~200 million, and local players like Didi outcompete Uber, so local integration and UX, payments, and native translation determine success.
