Portfolio

Lead Developer - Drag n’ Drop Calendar
Lead Developer - Drag n’ Drop Calendar

Developed a Drag n’ Drop calendar (could not use external library) to schedule walks between many days, times, and walkers. It was well-optimized for rendering, as it allowed users to color the right time, region, and appointments when dragged on, and also showed what time the appointment was being dragged over. This process produced a lot of intensive rendering of some components and some unwanted rendering of others. This meant extensive optimization of the rendering of every element using Should Component Update, drag API conditionals, and libraries such as react-visibility-sensor.
