This is a Rails/Javascript technical challenge to prompt discussion about problem solving and more importantly, knowledge of the two main languages of the King & McGaw tech stack. The task is relatively simple and should be completed in no more than 4 hours. The description is kept purposely vague because we feel it reflects a typical task that is presented to a developer.
Create an app that allows visitors to ask a question and others to respond to those questions. That's it! Simple
- it must be a Rails app with a small part of the functionality using javascript to enhance the user-experience. ie. a simple modal, form validation or even animation.
- The flavour of JS is not important. If jQuery is your strong suit, use that. If it's Stimulus, React, Vue or plain JS/Typescript that's also fine.
- At least one spec using framework of your choice
- css/styling is not a necessary part of this assessment, but valid html should be used
- This is meant to see how the candidate approaches problem solving in an artificially short time frame
- We will use this app to discuss the thought process and trade-offs that had to be made
- Instructions on how to set up and use the app should be found in the README
- Fork this repo and open a PR
- Share the code with https://github.com/kingandmcgawdev
- Email code file to web@kingandmcgaw.com
