Overview
The Blooberg.com Politics was a supporting phase of maintenance work on the Politics section of Bloomberg.com. During this phase me and other Code And Theory engineers, we were working directly with the Bloomberg’s Web Core Team. This project served as “onboarding” for us, Code And Theory engineers, to get prepared and support the development of the upcoming bigger project ‘Blooberg.com Full Redesign’ that had a larger development scope.
The project consisted in 3 phases, working with the Bloomberg’s Web Core Team:
- on Bloomberg.com Politics (1 month) implementing some post-launch features;
- on Bloomberg.com Business (3 months) complete redesign;
- UAT phase (1 month), I was resourced to help the Bloomberg Core Web Team in addressing QA & UAT feedback/items.
Tech Stack
- Isomorphic Javascript, based on Brisket.js, JS framework open-sourced by Bloomberg Core Web Team, forked from Backbone.js
- Agile workflow (Sprint planning, retrospective meetings, Story points using Fibonacci numbers)
- Unit testing in Jasmine
