SpaceX Launch Dashboard

A front-end application made in React (hooks), Styled-Components, and Typescript.

It fetches the latest launch data from the SpaceX API, and arranges it for you on a simple table.

Integration tests run with Cypress.io

View it live on Github Pages: https://www.applebya.com/spacex-launch-dashboard/

(Note: This project was created as part of an interview coding challenge, with a limited scope)

Notes for Discussion

• The "WithReddit" filter type exist, but no column in the table to show any of reddit links.
• Launches have various stages, so the "Landed" and "Reused" filters may need to be refined
• It'd be helpful for the <tbody /> itself to be internally scrollable, so the column headers always remain
• It'd be helpful for the table to be sortable
• Integration tests could mock the fetch response data, so filters would be more fully tested
• The provided Sketch file was outdated (missing an artboard), and frequently crashed Avocode/Zeplin
• As the number of launches grows (dystopian future of rockets!), this list would encounter some performance issues. Would use react-virtualized to solve this.

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

yarn start

Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.

yarn test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.

yarn run deploy

Builds the app, and deploys it to Github Pages

yarn build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!

See the section about deployment for more information.

yarn eject

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!

If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.

Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.

You don’t have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
