This is a sample application of a business management dashboard using next js on the front end and node js on the back end.
This project has a docker-compose.yaml file with a set of containers used for development as well as a Makefile with directives for convenience.
Running:
Use the Make directive to run the container:
make up
make reset-db
Access localhost:3000/dashboard to see the app running.
Tests:
There are unit tests runnable with make tests and API tests using Hurl HTTP. Hurl provides testing like Postman, but with a much friendlier file
format. To execute the tests, run make hurl-tests.
Extra features:
- User impersonation (better for testing filters)
- Users have roles (Admins can access all businesses)
- Cities include State name
There is some room for improvement for this project, namely:
- Configs from environment variables
- Better error handling
- Logs and metrics
- Integration between front end and back end currently uses the exposed 3001 port, the front end should talk to the back end over the Docker container network
- Better page design
- More list features (better pagination, sorting options, etc.)
