Plug Feed - React Challenge

A frontend exercise from react-take-home

This project aims to recreate the main offer feed of The Plug, which is used by influencers to access offers, track earnings and manage their accounts.

Live Demo

You can visit the deployed website here.

Challenge

Time Frame: 4 Hr

The main goal was to build the mobile UI for the main feed using JSON data from the sample API endpoint.

• Communicate with API and receive JSON data ✔
• Render the data according to the provided Figma design ✔
• Create a seamless user experience similar to The Plug app ✔
• Handle failed API requests ✔
• Create UI for failed state ⏳
• Implement inline video playback ✔
• Optimize load time ⏳
• Optimize scroll performance ⏳

Some features marked with ⏳ couldn't be implemented due to time limitation, but I plan to add them soon

Stack

This project is built with React. The main technologies used are:

• Create React App: To set up the project
• Fetch API: To get JSON data from API endpoint
• prop-types : Library for validating props during development
• react-icons : Rich and simple icon library
• gh-pages: To deploy on GitHub Pages

Implementation

This app follows the following implementation details:

• Data Fetching: The app fetches data from the API when it starts. If the API request is successful, the data is used for rendering the content.

• Component Structure: The main components used in the app are:

  • Campaign component - responsible for displaying each item in the feed
  • Media component - handle each media object within a campaign item

• Media Actions: Each media item within a campaign has two buttons associated with it. One button allows the user to copy the track link, while the other button enables them to download the media content.

• Video Playback: Play button is displayed for video media items. When the play button is clicked, the video is played inline within the app.
