Testing and Debugging: Conduct thorough testing of front-end components to identify and fix bugs, ensuring high-quality and bug-free code. Utilize debugging tools and techniques to troubleshoot issues efficiently.
Accessibility: Ensure accessibility standards are met by implementing features such as proper semantic markup, ARIA roles, and keyboard navigation, making applications accessible to users with disabilities.
Version Control: Utilize version control systems like Git, Azure DevOps to manage codebase, and Jira to track changes, and collaborate effectively with team members.
Testing and Debugging: Conduct thorough testing of front-end components to identify and resolve bugs and issues. Utilize debugging tools and techniques to ensure high-quality, bug-free code.
Mobile Development: Leverage mobile development frameworks/libraries (e.g., React Native, or hybrid frameworks like Capacitor) to build native or cross-platform mobile applications with excellent performance and user experience.
