CRIPT | Polymer Research

Posted on by

Since August 2022, I am working as a Front-end Software Engineer for polymer research in MIT (ChemE dept.).

« The Community Resource for Innovation in Polymer Technology (CRIPT) provides a platform for people working in polymer science and engineering to capture and share data. CRIPT is led by a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) along with collaborators in Academia, Industry, and Government, with support from the Convergence Accelerator Program of the National Science Foundation (NSF) »

My role:

  • Contribute and maintain a web app (React, Vite) and multiple libraries (TS, Rollup, npm)
  • Write ingestion scripts in TypeScript and Python (pandas, CRIPT SDK)
  • Create dynamic visualisations (React, Plotly)
  • Unit tests, e2e tests and CI scripts (Jest, Cypress, GithubActions)
  • Estimate tasks to help plan the production

Intro

After implementing the PHP backend working with the Angular front-end, I was curious about other front-end framework alternatives. I heard a lot about React and Vue, and I decided to choose React because of the low effort it seems to require to get quick results. I started to implement a simple page to display a joke slideshow, something close to the original Angular version, but with a slightly different style. The figure below shows a capture of the single page using React.
