Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role, for now, involves the development of an internal application which helps developers to create tools in order to make their work much easier. In the past, this application was written in angular and created using an older structure, and now my job is to move it to a new programming language, more exactly react, combined with micro-frontends and also typescript. For now I moved some pages using react and typescript and I think it fits me well.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Not that much. I started to take some tasks that were in waiting for some time and with not that big of a priority, so the adaptation with the new environment won't be that heavy.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
For now I didn't really learnt new skills, besides some more advanced things using react. Maybe the structure that was presented to me, and that we are using on this application, is new for me and very interesting, but in general, I'm using skills that I already knew. I used to participate in some trainings too, not technical ones, and from there I acquired some
general knowledge, team work things and personal development knowledge
