2020 — 2021

Led the front end team to improve the app's initial loading time from 2 second to less than 0.5 second; Consolidated tech debts and downsized the frontend codebase by 1/3 of its original bundle size.

Built a React component library with Storybook from scratch, allowing components being shared across different teams and projects. Designed Jest, Enzyme and Puppeteer frameworks to formulate automated tests with Test Driven Development principles.

Developed front end in Typescript to ensure React/prosemirror’s integration and handle conflicts on state management/DOM manipulations between these two popular libraries.

Introduced React Context API for state management, replaced polling with Websocket. Employed custom Webpack/Typescript configuration to exercise granular control over the bundling of the frontend codebase.

Other contributions include shipping directory sync feature, refactoring Prosemirror schema, and implementing server-side rendering.

Implemented React/D3 to build a developer tool that introspects and visualizes PostgreSQL databases and outputs schemas ready to be inserted into GraphQL APIs, allowing users to perform drag-and-drop actions and receiving real-time schema updates, and helping organizations upgrade legacy RESTful APIs to use more cutting-edge and performant patterns.

Constructed Express server in a combination of object-oriented programming and functional patterns to modularize the app’s back-end structure, which introspects relations in Postgres databases in one query then outputs working schema for GraphQL APIs.

Leveraged Node’s file structure module and Express’s download method to let users conveniently save app output as JavaScript files, encouraging modularity while providing a way for users to easily implement schemas and resolvers in their own projects.

Utilized AWS for deployment by configuring Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) server with Dockerized images to ensure future scalability.

Leveraged PostgreSQL to create a relational database in order to reduce the amount of redundant entries while ensuring ACID compliance.

Configured Webpack build tool to leverage the dev server and bundled modules into a core file with minification and uglification features improving app performance times. Used a proxy to load content from a different port in order to handle cross-origin HTTP requests.

Established Node.js/Express server to efficiently handle HTTP/API requests to myriad endpoints by engaging the middleware design pattern, writing routers and controllers to modularize backend requests with a discernible chain of responsibility.
