In today's fast-paced digital landscape, insurance companies are constantly striving to enhance their customer experiences while maintaining operational efficiency. Guidewire, a leading provider of software solutions for the insurance industry, has stepped up to address these challenges with the introduction of their groundbreaking Jutro Digital Platform. This comprehensive suite of purpose-built tools, services, and features empowers front-end developers to build unique and engaging property and casualty (P&C) web experiences on Guidewire Cloud. In this blog post, we will explore the features and benefits of Jutro and how it empowers Experince Designers and Developers to rapidly design, develop, and deploy web applications.
Jutro Digital Platform is a comprehensive suite of purpose-built tools, services, and features tailored specifically for P&C web development. It includes the Guidewire design system, a robust set of design guidelines and best practices that ensure a consistent and coherent user interface across applications. By leveraging the design system, front-end developers can quickly understand and implement design requirements, reducing development cycles and enhancing productivity.
Jutro introduces a new web application framework and software development kit (SDK) that simplifies the development process. The framework provides a solid foundation with a wide range of tools, libraries, and reusable components. Front-end developers can easily leverage this powerful framework to build highly functional and visually appealing web applications. The Jutro SDK further enhances coding productivity, allowing developers to integrate their applications with Guidewire's Cloud API and deploy them on the Guidewire Cloud in minutes.
To expedite the development process, Jutro offers a catalogue of pre-designed templates and reference experiences. With Jutro App Admin, a management dashboard embedded in the Guidewire Cloud Console, developers can quickly create new Jutro web apps and micro-frontends based on these templates. This jumpstarts application development and enables teams to focus on customizing the user experience, navigation flow, persona-specific features, UI layout, theming, and more.
Jutro Digital Platform removes the burden of managing infrastructure from developers' shoulders. It enables front-end developers to focus on building and shipping software based on user needs rather than worrying about infrastructure setup and maintenance. By securely accessing application code repositories in Bitbucket and utilizing CI/CD pipelines in Teamcity, developers can deploy their applications within minutes using a live URL and with no complex configuration required.
Web applications built with Jutro Digital Platform seamlessly leverage the power of the Guidewire Cloud ecosystem. This includes secure, reliable, and scalable infrastructure, end-to-end analytics, and access to the InsuranceSuite Cloud API. By tapping into these resources, developers can enhance their applications with advanced functionality and deliver a superior user experience to policyholders, agents, service representatives, and other stakeholders in the P&C industry.
