Quizzler

Description

The purpose of this project is to demonstrate my experience working with the following technologies

Docker
Kubernetes
Git
CI/CD: CircleCI
GitOps: ArgoCD
Monitoring - Prometheus/Grafanna
Deployment - AWS

Since I have web/mobile development experience where your skill and work can be easily seen through projects you've built in the past. I find it really hard to prove that I am knowledgible and skilled in the technologies used in DevOps and Cloud computing. I hope this tiny project provides the necessary prove for that.

This project named Quizzler is small react project that users can take quizzes.

Most of the requirements of Quizzler is inspired from an interview I had with a company for a Junior DevOps Position.

While this project is basic in all ramifications, and in a real world scenario, I would be handling complex projects containing thousands of microservices. The goal is to demonstrate my understanding of DevOps and its related skills.

Requirements of Quizzler

Quizzler should be deployable in different data centers exposed to the internet with different URLs
The deployment should be packaged in such a way so that is fully compatible with a modern CI/CD tool e.g. ArgoCD, Flux, GitLab, Jenkins, Harness, Spinnaker
During deployment, the user should experience zero downtime
The deployment should have the ability to rollback if needed
There should be an automated recovery in case of failure

Environment

Node 12+

How to run

first run npm i to install all dependencies
Then run npm run start to start the project.

How to test

Run npm run test to start the test runner

How to read and my solution to the requirements

There's a solution.md file in the root directory of the project that gives a detailed description of each technology used, the justification if needed and my approach to satisfying the requirements listed above.

If you're reading this and you would like to hire me, please do not hesitate to reach out. My email is codekagei@gmail.com. I am currently looking for a Junior-Mid DevOps/SRE position where I can apply these skills and knowledge in real life projects. Thank you :)

If you're not hiring and just stumbled upon this repository by chance, Hallo 🤩🤩🤩, I'm Temi and nice to meet you. Say Hi on Twitter @themmyloluwaaa

Everyone is free to also fork this project to use but with attribution ofcourse 🥰🥰.

If you'd like to do this task from the beginning, checkout to the starter branch. It contains the basic setup of the application without any solution yet.

In addition, try to tweak one or two things in your own implementation, or even add something magnificent, don't limit yourself to this small idea
