Web visualizer for sqlite3 tables in a grouped manner to have quick insight of data.
I applied for a company which gave me an assignment to do on my own.
The goal was to create a web application to read a sqlite3 file, select a column of the unique table then show for each value of this column the number of rows with this value and the average of specific column. This, as a Single Page Application.
While my solution did not meet their satisfaction, I decided to not giving up and improve it a bit based on my ideas and the absence of feedback on my solution from the interviewer.
There was no mandatory technology or programming language so my choice was a mix of known stuff, forced decisions, and being very motivated because I couldn't wait to see the product of my knowledge being having worked more with software than web :
Last time I practiced PHP5 was 6 years ago for work so I did not have time to ramp up again AND I needed a quick result
I programmed in node.js when it was not hype yet at school. I had an immediate vision of how to achieve SPA-ness with socket.io as I used it. But with the pleasure of going back to level 1 in this technology.
Some HTML5 (cf node.js) and basic CSS.
