Created a rich single-page application using React.js that delivers different types of content to an audience of children. The content was primarily presented by video episodes and connected interactive karaoke sessions, games, and lessons. The application also includes a loyalty program that allows children to purchase other types of content within the application. Originally created for the Chinese market, it was later translated into the English language, so there were a lot of tasks related to localization and internationalization. It has also been integrated with the Chinese platforms, targeted to SEO optimization and OAuth authentication.

Accomplishments:
• A plethora of different kinds of games: labyrinths, puzzles, spot the difference, etc.
• Cartoon-like handcrafted design.
• Written in React, the project includes over hundred of components with a test coverage over 80%.
• Set up SEO-related tools, including Baidu Analytics and Weibo and Wechat authentication.

Single-page application with Ember.js. It handles lots of user interactions leading to complex data computations and visualizations. Also provides rich full-text and facet search experience over 10M documents.

The back-end was developed using Node.js with MongoDB and Elasticsearch back-ends, which were populated by ETL process from legacy database. Kafka was used for data transformations and synchronization between MongoDB and Elasticsearch.

A set of microservices were based on Node.js servers developed using PostgreSQL databases. The services were connected via service discovery solution based on Zookeeper cluster. Each service had a generated SDK class by simple JSON specification of endpoints, and each of SDK classes could be easily customized later.

Unit and integration tests were written with Mocha. Acceptance test scenarios were written in Cucumber-like DSL.

This tool can be used by different kinds of organizations. It is suitable for commercial enterprises to measure the activity of their employees, assign tasks, etc. It can also be used for performing tasks and tests in educational institutions. The manager can schedule assignments with deadlines and see screenshots, keyboard, and mouse activity. This is a large-scale and labor-intensive project with fifteen man-years worth of effort. Particular attention was paid to the visual component of the project management process. Our main aim was demonstrating the current state of the project in a handy form. The back-end of the system was implemented with ASP.NET MVC5 and SQLServer. We used POCO Entity 5 framework with expression trees to work with the DB. The front-end is implemented with Ext,js 4 framework.

Features:
- Single-page web app
- Task management
- Reports
- Customizable task presentation: task tree or task board
