As apart of one of my contracts, I was tasked with developing a bespoke project management system allowing internal and external clients to view and update the status of a project at any given time.

The system was built using the very latest technologies at the time of writing this article. These were: React, which is an open-source framework, built by Facebook, for rendering the interface and managing the components; Redux which is another open-source framework for managing the the state of the application and allowing actions to be distributed throughout the system, Socket.IO , another open-source framework that creates and manages a persistent connection between a client and server, yielding real-time interactions between the user and the system.

Another requirement of the system was that it had to interact with another system (also built by me) for executing an internal process. This requirement was achieved by allowing both systems to talk to each other using APIs.

Furthermore, Bitbucket was used throughout the project, so that a log of each iteration with the system could be recorded and the repository could be cloned for use by additional developers as the system expands.  Lastly, Webpack was used so that resources and assets could be compressed and various other scripts executed upon compiling for live production.
