Is this production-ready?

No 😅 It's missing:

• defensive programming against network calls
• asynchoronous calls
• logging/tracing
• tests (load tests, e2e tests, stress tests, unit tests)

Why are there no tests?

Initially there used to be pytest included into requirements, however because of the small scope, there is not much logic to test, apart from the json transformations.

Why are there no formatters and/or linters?

I have Pyright installed locally and my OCD doesn't let me write misaligned code. That's definitely a need for a project with multiple people involved.

Is there anything missing in the UI?

Keyboard navigation for the Autocomplete and some accessibility improvements.

What can be done better for Search?

• Filtering with facets
• Availability awareness
• Location/deliverability awareness
• Synonyms
• Expansions and classifications

Is there any tracking?

Take a look into the Dev Tools console!
