Technologies

Frontend (My Part)

  • Angular: A powerful framework for building the frontend of the application, providing a robust structure for developing dynamic and responsive user interfaces.
  • TypeScript: A superset of JavaScript that adds static typing, enabling the development of scalable and maintainable code.
  • WebSocket: A protocol used to implement real-time chat functionality, ensuring seamless and instant communication between users.

Backend

  • Java Spring Boot: A framework for building the backend API, providing a comprehensive programming and configuration model for modern Java-based enterprise applications.
  • Microservices: An architectural style that structures the backend as a collection of loosely coupled services, enhancing scalability and maintainability.
  • Docker: A platform used for containerizing the application, ensuring consistency across multiple environments and simplifying the deployment process.
  • PostgreSQL: An advanced, open-source relational database used for storing and managing application data.

Development and Team Collaboration

This was a team project, and my role focused on frontend development using Angular and TypeScript. The project was managed using Jira for task tracking and progress monitoring. Our development process followed Agile methodologies, working in sprints to ensure regular delivery of features and improvements. Our codebase was hosted on GitHub, where we followed a structured workflow:

  • Pull Requests: Team members created pull requests for new features and bug fixes.
  • Code Reviews: Each pull request underwent a code review process to ensure code quality and consistency.
  • Merging: After approval, pull requests were merged into the main branch.
