This repo is intended to be forked and uploaded to your own Github account in order to form the submission for the challenge. Once cloned, it will give you a basic server with a React app, so you don't have to spend time writing boilerplate code. Feel free to make any changes you wish - the existing code is purely intended to get you going faster.

To run the app, cd into the project root directory and run yarn install & yarn start (install Yarn here).

Depending on your environment, you might need to install concurrently / Typescript globally.

There is one basic test written in the client, which you can run by performing cd client and then yarn test. If you want to add new client tests you can use Jest.

Mocha has been installed on the server to allow you to create server tests if you wish, although none have been written yet.

Create a web-app that shows how much you can expect to make from your savings over time.

The app must satisfy the following Acceptance Criteria (ACs):

• It should allow the user to vary the initial savings amount, monthly deposit and interest rate through the UI
• It should display how much the user's initial savings amount will be worth over the next 50 years.
• You can just return mock/dummy data over the simple Node server that has been set-up for you. You don't have to write any "calculations" for the backend, just return mock data to give whatever functionality you want in the frontend. You won't be scored on any server-side code!

The challenge should not take any more than 2-3 hours. You do not need to complete the challenge in one go.

These are some qualities we value:

• Well-modularised, robust and clearly-written code
• Maintainability. Another team member should be able to easily work with your code after you've finished.
• Single Responsibility Principle
• A well-organised codebase. You should think about how your codebase might grow as the project becomes more complex

The UI has been started, as well as some simple setup logic on the server. How you connect these and structure logic is up to you! Feel free to make changes to any of the code provided (including the UI) if you wish.

We have chosen to include a basic design system on the client, to give you an idea of how we like to build UIs. For this challenge we have used Chakra JS.

Other than the above AC, feel free to take the challenge in any direction you feel best showcase your strengths!

Once complete, please drop us a brief note (either an email, or in the readme somewhere) explaining:

• How you approached the challenge
• What bits of your solution you like
• What bits of your solution you’d like to improve upon

Any images/gifs of the finished product would be helpful too!

The frontend contains some tooling you might be familiar with

If you like to use Typescript in your workflow, you should get any client warnings/errors appear in your terminal after running yarn start.

You can also run the server types using yarn types.

We believe strong TS typing will make your code much more robust.

We believe Prettier makes your life easier! There is an example .prettierrc included in the frontend directory - feel free to tweak the settings if you'd prefer.

You might need to give your IDE a nudge to pick the settings up - here's an example of how to do that with VS Code
