Harvest Builders Incubator Program
I completed a six week incubator program put on by Harvest Builders. The program involved learning the tech stack used by Neo Financial by coding a full stack pizza delivery application. As a result, I had to quickly self-learn and expand on already familiar technologies such as GraphQL, TypeScript and Jest. All the code contained unit tests to ensure quality. Unfortunately, this repository is private so the code is not viewable.
Skills Used:
- GraphQL
- Jest
- MongoDB
- TypeScript
- React
- Docker
- Yarn
- Material UI
