Airyluxe makes bridal and occasion wear to order. Genesis Forge built its website, airyluxe.in, and its Android app from one Flutter codebase, with separate sign-ins for shop admins, workers and customers.
What a made-to-order store needs
A made-to-order outfit is not bought off a shelf. The customer picks a design, asks for changes, gives measurements, pays, approves the design, and then waits for it to be made and delivered. The software has to carry an order through each of those steps, for the customer and for the store.
The customer side
- Catalogue and wishlist. Browse the designs and save the ones you like.
- Customise a design. Ask for a change of colour, sleeves, neckline or length.
- Size and measurements. A size guide, a measure-at-home guide, and self-measurements.
- Appointments. Book a studio visit or a video call.
- Design approval. See studio photos and approve the design before production starts.
- UPI payment. Pay the shop directly by QR code or UPI link and submit the transaction ID; the studio verifies it.
- Order tracking. Follow the order, including courier tracking.
- Reviews and help. Reviews with photos, plus FAQ and shipping pages.
The shop side
- Orders. The store manages every order in one place.
- Payments and refunds. Customers pay the shop directly by UPI and submit the transaction ID, and the studio verifies each payment. Refunds are recorded too.
- Delivery fees and extra charges. Set by the store.
- Appointment calendar. Weekly hours, with changes for specific dates.
- Review approval. The store approves customer reviews.
- WhatsApp messages. The store can message customers on WhatsApp.

How it is built
One codebase for the website and the app
The website and the Android app are the same Flutter application, with Firebase as the backend. The store has one product to maintain instead of two.
Three kinds of sign-in
Shop admins, workers and customers each sign in separately and see what belongs to their role.
Direct UPI payments
Payment goes straight to the shop by QR code or UPI link. The customer submits the transaction ID and the studio verifies it.
Careful with photos
Photos are compressed on the phone before upload, and location data is removed from them.
Coming next
Lookbooks, rewards, coupons and gift cards, invoices, push notifications and online payments.
