Challenge

Before adopting MUI X, the Delivery Hero team faced two major challenges:

Fixing vendor reported bugs and implementing feature requests took time due to the slow development speed. Building, testing, and refining UI components was a slow process.
Ensuring a consistent, easy-to-use and performant experience for end users was difficult.

Solution

To address these challenges, the team integrated the Date and Time Pickers and Data Grid into their platform. These components enabled them to:

Accelerate development by using pre-built, high-quality components. This reduced the time spent on UI implementation.
Enhance usability by offering a modern, sleek UI that improves user interactions and consistency.
Optimize performance by providing a smooth experience for restaurant and shop managers.

Results

After implementing MUI X, the team saw immediate benefits. UI development became faster and more efficient, which gave them more time to focus on business features.

One key success story was the implementation of the Date Time Picker, which significantly reduced the number of clicks required for users to achieve their desired results. This simple enhancement greatly improved user efficiency and satisfaction.

Developer experience

The team praised the MUI documentation, describing it as clear, well-structured, and easy to follow. This helped their developers integrate and customize components effortlessly. For developers looking to build modern, high-performance UI components with minimal effort, the Delivery Hero team highly recommends MUI X.
