Worked on a large enterprise SaaS codebase, which consisted of over 500 React.js components. I've used Backbone.js models , Flux, Redux and React Hooks to manage state of the app. I can help you with: - understanding the "React Way" of organizing your app into components, - designing component hierarchy that will represent your problem domain, - split components into container and presentation components to maximize performance, - debug state-related errors, - write tests at both unit and integration levels using frameworks like jest and jasmine

I've used C++ to write low-latency system services, using both "classic" C++ as well as modern constructs available in C++11, C++14, C++17 and C++20. I know how to optimize code taking advantage of constexpr and compile-time evaluation, how to use template metaprogramming to reduce amount of code and how to structure classes & methods for maximum composability. I also have experience with configuring C/C++ toolchains and continuous integration systems, using both Bazel and Cmake

Marek was very patient and clear, and persevered despite technical issues with the platform. He made suggestions for where to focus (my initial "problem" was quite vague) and was generally very courteous. Would recommend.
