Subject-specific Knowledge • A knowledge and understanding of good programming practice (for example, reuse, docu- mentation and style) • Building collections of data within a program and using JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) • Making programs robust through the use of exceptions and exception handling • A knowledge and understanding of good programming practice (for example, reuse, docu- mentation and style) Subject-Specific Skills • An ability to realise solutions to problems as working JavaScript programs • An ability to apply reuse by exploiting predefined components • An ability to use software tools related to programming (programming environments, code management, documentation tools, etc.) Key Skills • An ability to communicate technical information • An ability to recognise and apply the principles of abstraction and modelling |
Task summary
1. Construct a dynamic web site for an application of your choosing meeting constraints as written below in the Dynamic Web Site section.
2. Use static HTML page(s) loading dynamic JSON content from server via AJAX
3. Server must be written in nodejs and Express to provide JSON through REST API
Dynamic Web Site
• Design a website related to any Business venture (feel free to use your imagination but justify it in the submission!)
– The site must have at least two entities e.g. say, customers, sellers, products, ship- pers, comments etc etc.... At least two entities must have One-to-Many or Many- to-Many relationship e.g. a seller maybe selling many products but each of those products could be sold by only that seller (This is a One-to-Many relationship) or maybe that or some products could be sold by many different sellers (This is a many- to-many relationship).
– The website must have a clear purpose which is evident from/highlighted on the main/single page.
• If you are stuck for ideas, feel free to consult me
Static HTML loading JSON via AJAX
• ’Single page app’: page content loaded as JSON via AJAX
• Can have more than one page e.g., for user and admin
• Should provide clean and simple User Experience (UX)
• Should be responsive i.e., work well on desktop and mobile
• Recommend using framework such as Bootstrap, semantic-ui

Entities
Each entity (e.g., picture) must have at least:
1. GET method to list/search (returns a list of IDs and names)
2. GET method for individual details (includes details of related entities)
3. POST method to add new entity
4. Document your API in the style of the Twitter API
5. Response provided as JSON
6. Content-type needs to be correct
7. HTTP codes should be correct: use 200, 400 or 403 (if using authentication)
Server (to be written in nodejs)
Please follow these:
• Use npm for management
• Make sure you use –save or –save-dev option with packages you add
• Write jest test cases: run with npm test
• Use eslint: run with npm run pretest
• Use express. Use any other packages along with as you see fit
Assessment
Assessment Criteria
The assessment is divided along the following criteria:
1. |
Client-side functionality |
15% |
2. |
Client-side quality |
15% |
3 |
Server-side functionality |
30% |
4. |
Server-side quality |
30% |
5. |
Video Presentation |
10% |
In more detail, the critreria and requirements are as follows:
Criteria |
Marks/100 |
Functionality (Client and Server) -Functionality (both Client: 15 marks, and Server: 30 marks) assessed by what is shown/demonstrated in the video (as per criteria below). |
45 |
Quality (Client and Server) Quality (both Client: 15 marks, and Server: 30 marks) -Assessed by Assessor as per detailed criteria that follows. |
45 |
Video Presentation (2 minutes with penalty for going over time). Please read carefully below. |
10 |
Testing Environment
• Mac OSX. Firefox (default).
• Visual Studio Code
• Standard packages covered in class (npm, express etc) (remember you need to include package.json)
Client-side functionality
Client-side functionality listed as follows:
1. User Experience (UX): clean layout and minimal clicks/entry required
2. App complexity: entities can be listed and edited
3. ’Single page’ style: asynchronous updates
Client-side quality criteria
1. Standards compliant (HTML5)
2. Responsive to different viewport sizes
3. Gracefully handles server disconnection
4. Useful error messages
5. Recommences on server restart
Server-side functionality criteria
1. At least two entity types, with relationships
2. REST API provides each entity with appropriate GET (at least 2)/POST (at least 1) methods
3. Installs with npm install
4. Starts with npm start
Server-side quality criteria
1. Appropriate development tools and frameworks (Fetch, Express etc) used
2. Successful eslint (runs with npm run pretest)
3. Successful jest tests with good coverage (runs with npm test)
4. Testing includes content-type and HTTP code
5. Completeness of API documentation
Video Presentation
1. Submit a 2-minute (max) video demonstrating your software
2. Include demonstration of how to start the program
3. All functionality will be assessed by what is demonstrated in the video
4. If it is not demonstrated in the video, you will not get a mark for it
5. Quality of video presentation will be marked separately from functionality: (a) Structure, (b) Visual Presentation, (c) Audio explanation
