By utilizing Vite, we are able to render both the server and the client, all while minimizing the packages needed for initial load. This speeds up the time of first load and improves performance for users and bots alike.

Create, maintain and extend the basic architecture and implementation of server side rendering that we use on Talentsky. Vite creates the underlying development environment which allows fast development, and simplifies on-demand server side rendering. Server Side State is managed with Redux. A common static method is used to cross over between node and client for backend calls on page level components. And a global Initial State is generated to repopulate with React.

This was the first workshop being tested on the platform. As such there it was not really a skill sharing experience, but more testing the product in a live environment.

Led the technical Front End integration of Zoom's SDK into our existing software infrastructure, ensuring a robust architecture that enhances our platform’s communication capabilities. Collaborated with cross-functional teams to design and implement a secure, scalable system architecture that supports real-time video communications.

Worked on a team to build a new workshop feature coming to Talentsky.com.

Chakra UI is component library which normalises styling of react layouts. Based on typescript definitions it speeds up the creation of responsive layouts. We are using this in the workshop pages and it’s speeding up development.

Created all new components and connectivity with XD's from the design team and using the third party getStream SDK. Building both the chat mole, and main messaging page, with external linking via email.

As I was already upgrading the React code, I stumbled upon Vite as a build tool. In particular it had a great plugin for SSR and dynamic imports. Once the breakthrough was achieved with Routing, vavite handled dynamic loading of modules. This feature allows the entire app to be split into smaller chunks, which greatly improves initial page load. It also allows the site to build 100 times faster, which for development is a game changer.

This was part of a larger effort to enhance security and better integrate third party libraries. The older site was blocked from upgrading easily by several dependencies that could not be upgraded. As such it required a novel rewrite of the routing system to fit the existing structure. With this in place modern features of React could be employed to speed up the site loading time and other benefits.
