Second Construct week and A new Experience
Hello everyone, This is Rohit Kumar Gupta. We are a team of six including Arshad Khan, Ayush Anshu, Gaurav Kumar, Rohit Sahu, Shubahm, and me. As our Second Construct week project, we have been allotted to clone the website blinkit.com
Blinkit is one of the largest e-grocery companies in India. It is revolutionizing e-commerce by making the stuff most important to you, available to you in the blink of your eye. Its mission is — “instant commerce indistinguishable from magic”. Using a backbone of technology, data sciences, and rich customer insights, they've built a dense and fast network of partner stores enabling lightning-fast deliveries in under 10 minutes.
We have used mostly
- HTML to provide structure
- CSS for Designing and Styling
- JavaScript to add functionality and make it more user interactive.
- Asynchronous function and promises
- The API call to fetch the Location
- Parsehub to avail Data as of a few parts of the website we didn’t get API.
- Es6
- Debouncing
- Import-export functioning to reduce the length of code and a clean code;
This time in the first meetup we have decided that at which page we will work on the basis of our interest in working. Everyone selected and at last, I have taken the remaining part complete header to the footer- A login page, Get the app page, About us, Careers, Partner, Blog page.
We have decided to call a meeting at about 9:00 pm every day to take a look at progress and if anyone is facing a problem with any part and is unable to complete the allotted part resolve it with one who has completed his/her part. And then we decide on further movement according to the situation.
After 3 days we tried to merge the completed part and we got that our code is bursting out. But as mine was a separate page It got easily fit the main And then I decided to help merge the pages of others and a few ones were facing in the DOM section I, Arshad, and others (who has the problem) called a zoom meet and resolve the errors. It helped us a lot to manage the project work.
On the 4th day, we have worked much harder and completed their website cloning part. In next morning we had to record a video explaining our cloned website. So we decided on the flow of the video that how we move the video explanation as It had to max 5 mins. We have taken time much more than expected due to the bad internet connectivity of a few members. We practiced approx 2 hours rigorously, the combined team so that we can achieve the time limit with a perfect explanation video. And thus we completed our second construct week project.
It was a great experience to work as a team. I got that good in the DOM section, CSS of Arshad. Of course, we have faced issues like others but we have resolved them. When our code first time got we got socked now what? But at last, we figure it out and made it work. It has taught us that if we could decide that a particular person will take id and class (selector) only starting a particular letter then there are much fewer chances of code bursting. We should divide work on the basis of knowledge, not only by interest. It was good that every member is admiring others' efforts.
We are thankful to our faculty members Chandra Shekhar sir and Swanand sir who has made us able to do such a beautiful and responsive website cloning, Instructional Associate Sumit who always helps us whenever we required, last but not least Thanks to Nrupul sir Prateeek sir, and Yogesh sir who have provided such an excellent platform and where we are making ourselves more valuable.
Thank you!
