While working for Hatched Labs, I was the lead developer of a front-end team of 8 which produced an online grocery shopping experience for a large regional client.
The application was developed using React, GraphQL (w/ Relay, Apollo), and used a functional CSS library that was open sourced.
We built everything from scratch and as such were able to use many modern tools.
As it happened, we released to the public in early 2020, just as pandemic panic buying was a concern. We had to quickly scramble to build protections against people bulk buying certain products.
While it was a very stressful time to release it, I remain grateful for the chance to use my technical skills to help enable more people to get their essentials delivered and to help reduce the chance of catching COVID-19.
