sharkdemon/prominent-edge-assignment

My implementation of the Prominent Edge programming assignment.

prominent-edge-assignment

Implemented as a simple React app.

Clone and setup the app

git clone https://github.com/SharkDemon/prominent-edge-assignment.git
cd prominent-edge-assignment
cd frontend

Provide a Meteostat API key in your .env file. The name of the key that needs to be provided is REACT_APP_METEOSTAT_API_KEY.

Provide a Google Map Javascript API key in your .env file. The name of the key that needs to be provided is REACT_APP_GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY.

Run the app

Start up a local server by running command:

npm start

Then navigate to http://localhost:3000

Improvements

• Add authentication
• Maybe some buttons to load the sample incident JSON files
• Add ability to pull incident JSON files from another source (db, api, etc), with search capabilities
• Add ability to customize which details of the incident display under information
• Add ability to customize initial zoom level
• Since incidents aren't just a single "time" but rather represent a series of discrete events, build out a full timeline (event opens, units dispatched, units arrive, event closes)
• Can create a more elaborate pin in the map that displays high-level incident information, such as type/subtype or the common_place_name.

Time Spent

• 7.5 hours (2pm - 8pm, 8:30pm - 10pm)
