<p>This morning, I was asked a “Could you build…” question.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>It was an idea mentioned a short while ago and involves a simple, interactive form on the front end that sends requests to a public API, filters the results from the response and displays them to the user.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>I’d probably want to hide the API request behind a service responsible for interacting with the API and filtering the results - ensuring that the API could be switched with something else later if needed.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This afternoon, I built a small proof-of-concept application with Vue.js and TypeScript.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>There’s no API, or service retrieving real-time results. All of the data is hard-coded within the App component, as well as the code that filters, sorts and returns the results.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>The results are shown by adding a <code><pre></pre></code> to the page, with a <code><pre></pre></code> to show the input data.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>There isn’t even any styling, with just some basic horizontal rules to split the page - similar to <a href="https://twitter.com/taylorotwell/status/1203356860818087944">these screenshots from Taylor Otwell</a> of some work-in-progress versions of Vapor and Nova.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>A working proof of concept, or a "spike", answers the initial "Can we build..." question. It can be shown to a client or other stakeholders, act as a starting point for discussions and requirements gathering and then be turned into user stories. It also allows the Developers to validate their initial thoughts and experiment with different approaches.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If the spike is successful, the idea can then be moved forward and implemented in a full way, otherwise, it can be stopped with a minimal amount of effort and time.</p>
