Challenge Overview
Project Overview
Welcome to Project Snapshot! The goal of this project is to create an app that will allow intuitive consumption of project information and allow project reviewers to interact with the project information so that positive or negative observations can be communicated with transparency.
Competition Task Overview
For this challenge, you will need to implement the backend services defined in the architecture. More specifically you should check the John_Hancock_Project_Snapshot_Backend_REST_API_Assembly_Specification.docx document to see the full scope of the challenge. Please also make sure you check the Application Design Specification and the TCUML to understand the exact scope of this challenge.
Please keep in mind that the code will eventually be deployed to Microsoft Azure so make sure your code has no compatibility issue with that environment.
If you have any questions about the requirements, please ask in the forum.
