Task Description

To create a realtime search box, where users search articles, and then to have analytics that display what users
were searching for. You can also track via IP - no need to create a devise, etc.
Your goal is to record their input in realtime and ultimately display analytics & trends on what people are
searching for the most. (this is not about search itself, but really about analytics behind it).

It’s per user - so don't blend other users data

Don’t worry too much about populating it with articles, we only really care about the search, and search
analytics. We don’t care how good your search engine is, but rather how good your algorithm for figuring out
what people searched for. Search should be instant, and every search should be logged, regardless of what
they type, but you should capture and summarize the searches so you dont have the ‘pyramid problem’

Hint: Because the search is real time, queries will be coming in segments, as listed in the example
below.
Bonus: You should expect thousands of requests per hour, so think of scalability.
Bonus: Test your app with Rspec.

Example input output


1. Belows are the input/output good & bad examples.
2. If we test your app, and it behaves in a bad example, we won't hire you.
3. Keep in mind that some users type slowly, but some users type. It's up to you to
engineer around that -- your solution should be fail proof.
4. It should be instant search & results though.
5. Better to over-engineer than to be lazy-engineer. Most importantly is to finish in the timeframe
and fast.

Good example
User searches (because it’s instant it records it all):

(1st (random) user searches (2nd (random) user searches


for) for:)
What is How is
What is a Howis emil hajric
What is a good car How is emil hajric doing

Your search engine only records:


• What is a good car
• How is emil hajric doing
• (And removes the rest because it was an incomplete search)
Full stack (Rails & Vanilla JS)Intership Test

Bad example
User searches (because it’s instant it records it all):

(1st (random) user searches for)


hello
Hello world
Hello world how are you?

Your search engine only records:


● hello
● Hello world
● Hello world how are you?
● (you didn’t filter what the user searched for)

Bonus points

• Stylize your app. We don't require you to write the CSS yourself, but if you do it we can
• evaluate your front-end skills and that's an extra;
• Complete it quickly
• Have amazing tests
• IT WORKS IN SCALE - meaning it can handle a lot of requests
• Communicate to Emil & the rest of the team in a professional manner once done
