Internship Logs - Day 3 | IDESS IT

Today was a real challenge. 😅 As someone new to full-stack development, setting up the entire development environment was quite a struggle. From configuring VS Code, setting up the frontend to backend, and connecting the backend to the database, it felt like I was navigating through uncharted territory.

At first, I tried figuring things out on my own, but frustration started to creep in. So, I did what any stressed developer would do—grab a cup of coffee. ☕ (By the way, we have free coffee in the office, which is a lifesaver! 😆). After a short break, I decided to ask my teammates for help.

Turns out, I was the only one struggling with this part because the rest of my team are already experienced full-stack developers. At first, I felt a bit behind, but their guidance helped me understand how to properly set things up. By the end of the day, I finally got my working environment up and running!

It was a tough start, but I know this is just part of the learning process. I’m ready for the next steps!

Today marks my last day as an intern at IDESS Interactive Technologies. Looking back, this journey has been incredibly rewarding—both in terms of personal growth and technical skills. I’ve learned so much during my stay here, and I’m genuinely grateful for the supportive and collaborative environment that made the experience even more meaningful. I truly appreciated the company culture: the chill atmosphere, the way our boss always checked in on us, the HR who made sure the pantry never ran out of coffee, and the senior developers who were always approachable whenever we had questions or needed help with our code. One of the highlights was how we, as interns, helped each other—whether it was debugging issues, figuring out code structure, or simply sharing insights. That kind of teamwork and collaboration made a huge difference and taught me the value of working together to solve problems. When I started, I was mainly focused on frontend development, but this internship helped me grow...

 Today, I worked on adding a new feature to our app—a chatbot. I spent most of the day studying how chatbots function and how they can be effectively integrated into our application. This included researching various models and frameworks that are commonly used in chatbot development. It was an insightful experience as I explored different options to determine which model would best suit our system’s needs. Although the chatbot is still in its early stages, I’m excited to see how it can enhance user interaction within our app.

 Today, I focused on applying a consistent loading experience across the entire app. One of my teammates initially used a spinner loader in certain parts of the UI, but to maintain a unified and cleaner look, I started replacing it with the skeleton loader that I previously implemented. This not only improves visual consistency but also gives users a smoother experience during data fetches. I'm currently halfway through integrating the skeleton loading across all necessary components. Although it takes a bit of time to adjust each section, the progress is steady, and I'm hoping to wrap it up soon.
