Experience
User Blog
I successfully transformed a WordPress-powered blog into a contemporary web application using Next.js with server-side rendering, getting data from the back end with REST API. My responsibilities included building the application using Next.js, writing optimized code for maximum speed, optimizing images to enhance page loading, maintaining the REST API back end, and integrating analytics for comprehensive insights.
Spaces
Spaces is a social platform allowing users to post, upload images, like or unlike, comment, and report.
I played a significant role in building the app from scratch by implementing key functionalities such as image upload, post creation, editing, and deletion, as well as commenting and reporting systems. Throughout the application, I incorporated reusable components to ensure efficiency and consistency. To optimize performance, I made valuable enhancements and implemented image optimization techniques. Furthermore, I maintained strong communication with the back-end team, collaborating to retrieve necessary data efficiently. I also configured the project's testing environment and authored both unit and integration tests for components, which resulted in an impressive test coverage of over 80%.
