You've been asked to create a way for users to easily view farm information. After doing user research, you've determined that the MVP feature requests are:
- Look up farms by name
- Find farms by revenue
- View field details for a given farm
Using the farm_data.json file provided, create a basic Front End and Back End to support your users. An initial React/Express structure is provided, but feel free to use standard boilerplate or backend structure.
We expect this project to take around 3-4 hours. As this is a short amount of time for the given scope, a persistence layer is not required and a FE library (bootstrap/material-ui/etc) is recommended to help support making your FE look great. Code comments are appreciated to better understand your decision making process.
- Front End that fulfills user MVP requests above
- Basic Backend with API communication with Front End
- Simple test suite
- Readme
- Instructions on how to run application and tests
- Assumptions and considerations for design choices
- Future direction if you had time to work on project for 1 more day? 1 more week?
- To start the server run
npm run startfrom inside thefarm-app-fullstackdirectory and then visit http://localhost:8000 - Once the application is running you can run the test suite by running
npm run testsfrom thefarm-app-fullstackdirectory.
-
One more day
- If I had an additional day I would have separated the FarmService into a FarmService and a FarmRepository to further separate the storage from the queries
- I would also spend more time making a more robust front end design
- Add in error handling and test more than happy path requests
-
One more week
- If I had an additional week I would have built out a persistance layer and built a full rest api on top of that
