EuroNews

Project overview

EuroNews is a mobile news aggregator app that delivers Bulgarian economic news through a serverless AWS architecture, with a focus on speed, reliability, and a comfortable everyday reading experience.

The problem

Bulgarian news related to the economy and the euro adoption is scattered across many different sources — what was needed was a simple mobile app that brings it all into one place and stays fast and reliable even on an unstable connection.

The solution

We built a cross-platform React Native app backed by serverless data processing — AWS Lambda fetches and caches the news in AWS S3, while the app displays it quickly, with offline support, bookmarking, and dynamic theming.

Product goals

• Fast, reliable delivery of news
• Stable behavior even on a weak connection
• Easy bookmarking and review of favorite articles
• Comfortable reading at any time of day

Key features

• Published on the App Store and Google Play
• Serverless pipeline with AWS Lambda and S3 for fetching and caching news
• Offline state detection
• Bookmarking system for favorite articles
• Dynamic theming — light and dark mode
• Custom UI components and animations

Development process

The project followed the standard development process — from defining requirements and choosing the architecture, through building the serverless AWS backend and the React Native app, to publishing on the App Store and Google Play and integrating Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics for production monitoring.

Lessons learned

This project reinforced our experience building serverless architectures and optimizing a mobile app to stay stable offline and on slow connections.

Future development

Expanding news categories and additional personalization options are planned — details will be added here as development progresses.
