week 10 Things I Learned in My 10 Weeks at Viget By www.viget.com Published On :: Wed, 07 Aug 2024 09:56:00 -0400 This summer, I was the Application Developer Intern at Viget. This being my first internship, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I learned. Rather than being tasked with fetching coffee or doing busy work, the internship focused primarily on our growth and development as interns. As my time at Viget comes to a close, I wanted to reflect on ten key things I learned during my experience here.Following the real-world development cycleGoing into this internship, my development process involved me sitting down and coding until the feature was completed, and that's it. During this internship, I learned and practiced the development cycle used at Viget. For each feature, I created a Branch. Then, I submitted a Pull Request once it was completed. After that, my advisor reviewed my code and gave feedback. Once I had completed the requested changes (if any), I would rebase and merge into the main branch. This cycle made the code cleaner, and the feedback on my code always ensured I was going in the right direction.Maintaining a clean git historyDuring my development process at Viget, my advisor ensured I took the necessary steps to maintain a clean git history in my projects. I put the corresponding issue number next to each git commit and pull request. This made it much easier to see which commits belonged to which feature when reviewing git history. I also learned to always use “rebase and merge” rather than “create a merge commit” when merging a pull request. This helped when reviewing git history as merge commits make it much more difficult to understand what’s going on, and rebase and merge provided a clean git history.Getting introduced to DevOpsNevin Morgan hosted a MicroClass where he went over the basics of DevOps. Going in, I didn’t know much about DevOps, but the class gave me a solid understanding of the basics. DevOps is a combination of philosophies, practices, and tools designed to improve the speed of development. Their responsibilities include:Keeping Communication clear for development teamsMaking sure teams continue collaboratingEnsuring deployments are quick and reliableI also got the chance to pair with Nevin when he set up AWS deployment for one of my projects, and when he was setting up Grafana for Viget. Getting to see DevOps in action gave me a good idea of what goes into being part of the DevOps team.Learning to work with clientsAt the start of our intern group project, Nathan Long gave us a presentation on what it's like to work with clients. He covered the typical client project cycle, client presentations, and how to handle client feedback. For our project, we simulated a client relationship with Viget as our client. They provided us with their requirements, and me and the other interns planned out the details of what we would deliver. Throughout the process, we gave several client presentations, received valuable feedback, and iterated on our product. Two weeks later, we had a finished product, which we presented to the client in a live demo. This whole process was designed to mimic what Viget goes through with real clients, and seeing the different perspective required when working with clients was really eye-opening for me.Exploring digital accessibilityNathan Schmidt hosted a MicroClass for the interns on Accessibility. He gave us an overview of what digital accessibility is and who it impacts. I learned that digital accessibility is the lens through which we ensure that people of all abilities, and particularly those with disabilities, are able to engage with the digital world. Every website is graded to a level set from the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). These guidelines include video captions, text size, color contrast, and many more requirements. It is the industry standard to follow these WCAG guidelines so that your website can be accessible to a broad range of consumers.Building confidence in public speakingWhen the summer began and I learned that I would need to present to the entire company, I felt intimidated. Public speaking has always been a source of anxiety for me, but I had numerous opportunities to work on this skill. Throughout the summer, I became increasingly confident. First, my fellow interns and I presented our group project to everyone at Viget at the company-wide all hands meeting known as TTT. I presented my personal project to the Dev team, discussing the libraries I used and walking through my code. The most significant presentation I delivered was my final one, where I spoke to everyone at Viget about my Gap Year through a Viget Tradition known as LabShares. Public speaking is a skill that improves with practice, and the various opportunities I had greatly boosted my confidence in this area.Diving into Vanilla JavaScriptGoing into this summer, I had never written a line of JavaScript in my life. I quickly learned that JavaScript is essential if you’re going to work in web development. On my personal project, which was an audio sharing social media app, I had a for you page, and I wanted to make the page update as soon as the user went to the next sound. This would require me to write JavaScript. I went through and wrote Vanilla JavaScript to update all the necessary information from the server's response. Although it was a challenging and tedious process, it significantly enhanced my understanding of how websites work and the role of JavaScript in web development.Getting my feet wet with RailsFor the first half of the internship, I got my foothold in Ruby on Rails. This was my first time writing in Ruby, so there was a bit of a learning curve. I started with the Rails tutorial and then made a Hacker News clone. This exposed me to a broad range of the application stack and got me prepared for the Intern project, where I also used Rails. I found Rails’ Model, View, Controller setup to be very intuitive, so the learning process was relatively painless.Discovering the benefits of TailwindBeing the only Application Developer Intern, my focus throughout the internship was primarily on the back-end. However, I did have the chance to use Tailwind for the first time during my personal project. The biggest thing that stuck out to me was how it was convenient to not have to go through and change the stylesheets myself. With Tailwind's utility-first approach, you can quickly apply predefined classes for spacing, colors, typography, and more, without having to write custom CSS. This makes it much faster to prototype and iterate on designs, as you can see changes immediately by simply adjusting the class names in your HTML.Exploring the Basics of ReactChris Manning hosted a MicroClass on React. I had never actually used React, but he made the class very beginner friendly. React is a JavaScript library, whose main strength is how dynamically it responds to user input and cascades UI changes. Chris went over JSX and React components, props, children, and state memory. I didn’t have time to actually write any React this summer, but I appreciate that Chris hosted this class after I said React was something I was interested in!Reflecting on what I’ve learned here at Viget, I realize how invaluable this experience has been for both my personal and professional growth. From learning Rails and JavaScript, to understanding the intricacies of client relationships, I've gained a wealth of knowledge that extends far beyond technical skills. The opportunity to work alongside experienced professionals and receive constructive feedback has been a huge source of development for me. As I move forward, I am excited to apply these lessons and continue exploring the world of Software Development, confident in the foundation this internship has provided.
