This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.

Deployed at:

https://mentions.vercel.app/

Getting Started

Create a .env file and add: BEARER_TOKEN=XXXXXXXXXXXX

Then you can run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

This project uses next/font to automatically optimize and load Inter, a custom Google Font.

Tests

npm run test

Future optimisations:

  • Data is not what I was expecting based off designs, mostly requires backend updates
    • Make mention data consistent for twitter - BE could query twitter API for tweet content and author name
    • Add website image for photo thumbnail
    • Description auditing (most are just links with no context)
    • Pagination
    • "Match data" for highlighting in FE (algolia does it well as an example)
  • Maybe link off to the mention in all cases? Ideally the card would be the clickable component but most descriptions contained links so I decided against it.
  • Could use SASS to do media queries, currently decided against it as there is very minimal CSS
  • Error handling for mentions call - maybe load app with error message and try again button?
