Made with đź’• for Brainhub
At the beginning of October, I started the interview process with the software house named Brainhub. They are based in the city of Gliwice so it's my area. The position I am applying for is the Full stack software developer. They send me the following task and they gave me one week to solve it. This is my attempt.
In the beginning, we want you to create a simple app with frontend implemented in React and connected with a simple API written in Node.js with data saved in DB (e.g., MongoDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MySQL).
The application should allow a user to add an event to the database, with the following fields:
- First name (required)
- Last name (required)
- Email (required, valid email address)
- Event date (required, simple date picker)
What's essential for us?:
- Tests for frontend and backend
- Data validation on frontend and backend
- Error handling
- State management on frontend (form and request lifecycle state)
- Readme with all information needed to install and run the app, run tests
- Catalogs and components structure
- Code readability and extensibility
If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask. Good luck!
