Challenge Overview
Project Overview
LightSpeed is an Excel based VBA application and in this project we are converting this application to a web based app to make it much easier to use. The web app will be an HTML5 app with offline capabilities.
Competition Task Overview
For this challenge, we need to work on a number of new features. Here's a summary:
- Replace the content in the expanded project view with charts as shown in the UI mockup and prototype
- Make D/B comments part of project notes and update the table view
- Implemente Announcement Banner
We'll provide a prototype but the prototype still has some issues and you will need to make some enhancements based on the UI mockup we provide so the final app matches the design. Please register to see details in the forum.
Make sure the app still works in both online and offline mode after these changes.
Note we do not have an architecture for this challenge so asking questions early in the forum is important!
Technologies
Use the same technologies currently being used in the app.
Testing
If you make any changes to the backend code, you must make sure all unit tests still work, it's NOT acceptable to remove any existing unit tests from our code base.
Browsers

Support for IE is NOT needed.
