Wiki API

Space wiki
Space wiki

Your product owner has an idea for a new sort of wiki. The wiki will be very simple, providing a short summary about the subject and then a list of links to related resources below the summary; the summary and the links will be user generated, all via an API you will build. You should aim to spend 2­-4 hours on the task.

I truly despise these types of coding exercises.

Repair Broken Leads

The fine folks at *terrible contractor we were using that I will not call out by name* decided that if a lead funneling in from LoanappGenius (LG) did not transmit to a client’s FG LOS correctly, a cron would try again five minutes later. With any application, things can go wrong. With LG, things do go wrong. I start by interpreting mysterious and totally ambiguous error status codes. If I haven’t hooked you by this point, keep reading anyway.

Executive Dashboard

The Executive Dashboard began as a one-off project that allowed Intel executives to quickly assess the effectiveness of current marketing campaigns across the twittersphere. Client admins are now able to quickly create any number of custom dashboards, each consisting of tabbed dataviews that present easy-to-digest social business intelligence in a number of customizable ways.

Journal

I created a simple multiuser journaling application while learning Laravel 5. The date dropdown on the form omits previously logged dates to let the user know what dates have not been logged. A non-trivial weighted average calculation is available for whatever single biometric field you choose to log. The user can log a single day at a time via the logging form, or bulk upload via CSV.

Personal Finance Application

I save all of my expenses to my budget site. It boasts an easy-to-use interface and can import all expense activity from CSVs that I download from my bank. Overage tabs appear when I’m over budget for a category or subcategory for a given month. Graphs and charts can be plotted for any (sub)category over any range of dates. The admin area provides tools for editing purchases.
