Dashboard for Investment Banking Clients

An app made for a German investment bank. It shows the current state of an application that the users raised. I created only the front-end part since SharePoint was used as a back end.

React with Redux and TypeScript were used to speed up the development and create a library of reusable components that the client might use to extend the app.
