Showcases TicketMaster's APIs.

the-labs

The Labs is an application that features the usage of Ticketmaster's APIs. It allows the users to search for an event and get more information on the event via Ticketmaster's events APIs.

Technology Stack

• HTML5
• CSS3 (no frameworks)
• Javascript (with the Vue/VueX stack)

Project structure overview

All of the code is layout in a way that follows current best practices. The following best practices are utilized:

• Vuex is used to passed around shared props for smart componenets.
• Models are used to format the code returned from the API.
• Files that has the name "Base" are meant to be presentational components, while those without "Base" in front of their names are smart components that deals with connecting to the Vuex store and handle non UI logic.
• Components with "The" in front of their names are special components in which only one instance should exist.
• Component communication is top down via props. Custom events are used to notify parent components of changes of their data.
• CSS follows the BEM architecture to make it better organized.
• Code is linted and uses Prettier for formatting
• Variables and functions names are self documenting
• Add comments where there may be some complex logic
• Unit tests for included for each smart component, VueX modules, and models to test their logic. Some UI unit tests are included as well for presentational components.
