BettyLabs Android Engineer Takehome Project

Please spend no more than 5 hours on this project, afterwards we'll have a 30 minute discussion review and discuss what we could add to the project

• Please make an initial commit once you start, and incremental commits as you see fit

So here’s the outline for the exercise:

We would like you to build a quick table that displays searched users, and importantly supports paging

As we do not have any Android developers in-house, we'll need to see you build a project from scratch, including client networking setup/management.

You will need to hit development endpoints we have setup

• POST https://auth.betty.wtf/auth/signIn Params: { username: String, password: String }
• GET https://disco.betty.wtf/user/me/user-search Params: { query: String, skip: Int, limit: Int }

Use username: {We'll provide you with a username}, password: asdfghjkl

/auth/signIn will return JSON: {token: String, userId: String}
The token is a bearer token that you'll need to pass in the authorization header of the search request

This is our User model:

struct User {
    let id: String
    var photoUrl: URL?
    let username: String?
    let firstName: String?
    let lastName: String?
    let bio: String?
    var verified: Bool? //is this user a "Verified" person, like Twitter checkmark
    var isFollowing: Bool? //are we following this user?
    var twitterUsername: String?
}

What we're looking for:

• A table that displays user data, designed however you'd like (think searching for users on a social media platform)
• A search field that filters the table's data source
• Paging, so that only 10 results are received at a time

Criteria:

• Maintainability
  • Modular
  • Readability
• Performant
• Looks pretty (not beautiful, but delivered to live users)

Output:

• A code repository, including /.git, zipped
• A list of features you would add to this project if you had more time, as well as any improvements you could make (if applicable)
• Please email your submission to matt@bettylabs.io
