The position focuses on building new features, modernizing UI with Tailwind, and ensuring seamless integration between front-end and back-end, with occasional interaction with legacy code.

💬 Potential Interview Questions

What is the VILT stack and how does it benefit fullstack development?
The VILT stack (Vue 3, Inertia.js, Laravel, Tailwind) enables seamless integration between frontend and backend, offering SPA performance with Laravel's server-side capabilities and Vue’s reactive UI.
How does Inertia.js differ from traditional API-based SPA architectures?
Inertia.js allows server-side controllers to directly render frontend pages without a separate API layer, simplifying state management and reducing development complexity.
How do you optimize performance in large-scale Laravel applications?
Use caching (e.g., Redis), database indexing, Eloquent eager loading, queue workers for async tasks, and code profiling tools like Laravel Telescope.
How do you ensure maintainability in a Vue 3 project using TypeScript?
Define strict types for props and state, use Composition API for logic reuse, and apply linters and code formatting tools for consistency.
What are the key advantages of using Tailwind CSS and Tailwind UI in modern frontend development?
They promote utility-first styling, reduce custom CSS, enhance responsiveness, and accelerate development with pre-designed components.
How do you containerize a Laravel-Vue application using Docker?
Create separate Docker containers for the PHP backend, Node frontend build tools, and database, define services in docker-compose.yml, and use volume mapping for code syncing.
Describe your experience working with legacy code in large, mature applications.
Carefully analyze the existing code, write integration tests before refactoring, document changes, and incrementally refactor to modern standards without breaking functionality.
What tools and practices do you use for CI/CD with GitLab?
Configure GitLab CI pipelines for automated testing, linting, and deployment, use GitLab runners, and manage secrets securely within CI environments.
How do you use AG Grid in Vue.js applications, and what are its benefits?
AG Grid offers powerful data table features like sorting, filtering, and pagination. In Vue, it integrates via its component wrapper, supporting reactive data and custom templates.
How do you ensure high code quality and reliability in a fullstack project?
Write unit and integration tests, enforce code reviews, follow consistent naming conventions and architecture patterns, and use static analysis tools like PHPStan and ESLint.
