Take the time you need to make something you're proud of but as we're hiring ASAP we'd love to have it back within a week if possible.
What we will evaluate is
- how you use React
- how you design the layout thinking about the reusability of components
- how you deal with async calls.
We divide the exercise into steps
Replicate the UI using a hierarchy of components that you find correct for this case. No need to over complicate or over structure.
Populate the stories section (the one on top with rounded images) making an async call to https://flynn.boolean.careers/exercises/api/boolgram/profiles. No clicks or actions are needed, just display the images
Populate the feed with content making an async call to this endpoint https://flynn.boolean.careers/exercises/api/boolgram/posts
Implement a skeleton screen loading, as you see in the video.
The file App.js acts as the 'main' function and all the aspects of the website are in the components folder. I didn't download / resize any of the images to save time. When doing this actually teaching this or producing this it is important to download and resize the images.
