Coding exercise for a FE developer position

Mui Grid with Favs

This is a coding exercise for a FE position

Specifications

• Use TypeScript
• Use React

Features

"Certificates" page - the list of available Carbon certificates

• Copying the certificate ID to the clipboard
• Saving the certificate as a favourite (client-side only)

"Favourites" page - the list of saved Carbon Certificates

• Same page as "Certificates" with a possibility to remove the certificate from favourites

Technical informations

For fetching the certificates use our endpoint: https://demo.api.agreena.com/api/public/carbon_registry/v1/certificates?includeMeta=true&page=1&limit=10

(API-ACCESS-TOKEN header with value Commoditrader-React-FE-Farmer is needed to authenticate the endpoint)

Keep in mind that there could be more than 10 certificates.

Development mode

install dependencies with

yarn

and run project with

yarn start

Testing

Run the command

yarn test

Principles followed

• Don't reinvent the wheel. Material-UI library already has a powerful Grid component that provides components to filter elements, to sort columns, to edit fields. At the end it took a bit of time to find the exact way of implementing it, but no need to create stuff from scratch.
• Use AI with caution. I used Github Copilot to generate code and tests, but at the end, I had to tweak and check that all was looking good and it met my standards.
• Test only what is worth to be tested. I tested the utils folder because it has pure functions that need to be reliable, but it makes little sense to do a render test over the small created components, moreover if they are already provided by a battle tested library like Material-UI. Place tests in the same folder as the tested ones, we don't want to have to maintain separated trees of files.
• Separation of concerns. Components, utils, services, configuration, in their respective folders. Keep each domain separate, easy to be found.
