Frontend Interview Challenge

Welcome!

Here you will find a set of problems to solve. These problems represent real-world scenarios you might encounter while working at Sandvine.

Getting Started

Pre-requisites

• NodeJS version 8+ Download here

Once node is installed clone this repository. Please ensure all work is done on a new feature branch:

git checkout -b sandvine-challenge-solutions

npm install

Challenges

The challenges are broken into two groups - functional programming challenges and UI component challenges.

Challenges can be found in the challenges/ directory. Each challenge contains two files:

challenge.js

This is where you will implement the function, or component, to complete the challenge. The contents of this file are entirely up to you, the only requirement is that the function signature remains the same and remains exported.

data.json

This contains the mock data that will be used for the particular challenge. These are made up events, or multiple groups of events, depending on the challenge.
