Designing a Web Application at FutureDays Software

Abstract

During the summer of 2018, the author interned at FutureDays Software, a software development and consulting company that specializes in web technologies. The majority of the work centered around building a web application for the FutureDays Farm, a farm owned and maintained by the founder of FutureDays Software, and the author completed a draft of the front-end and started on the back-end development. Throughout the internship, the author was exposed to a variety of different tools and technologies used for front-end design, back-end development, and communication between employees. The author also worked with a novel, custom-built JavaScript web development framework designed by FutureDays Software. While completing the internship, the author learned about common development practices, industry standards, and what it's like to work at a small, start-up company.
