      Powered by category-defining products like GoTo Connect, GoTo Connect,
      GoTo Meeting, GoTo Webinar, GoTo Resolve, LastPass, Rescue, and more. With
      tens of millions of active users, more than 3,500 global employees, over
      $1.3 billion in annual revenue and approximately 2 million customers in
      over 190 countries. Today, GoTo is the trusted partner for companies of
      all sizes to connect, collaborate, secure their workforces, and support
      employees and customers.
    summary:
      As a “Staff Software Developer”, my role was to share contribute to my
      team and share what I’ve learned along the way. The Frontend team is
      following principles referred to as “Micro Frontends” where each team is
      independent in building their application vertical. For example, one team
      would be responsible maintaining an Address book application. In a “Micro
      Frontend,” we can have each team implement the business logic of their
      vertical, and rely on what will assemble their part with shared systems.
      The Shared system is what we call an “Application Shell,” in which we
      expose utilities to make API calls with the current session. The Shell is
      also responsible for loading parts of each “micro frontend” vertical based
      on events and routes. I was part of the team responsible for maintaining
      the Shell.
    highlights:
      - Help other software developers with my experience with Web Standards,
        Accessibility and how to maintain and bundle Frontend code to optimize
        re-usability and reliability.
      - Contribute to the architecture of GoTo next generation micro-frontend
        “Application Shell” from which other experiences (e.g. meeting, contacts
        management, etc) runs in.
      - Built and demonstrated how to organize packages in smaller units
        maintained with their own test suites for usage between different
        applications

        data. Including how to rewrite forms using FormGroups instead of
        template
      - Make module stubs for the Backend chapter to write Express.js middleware
        in isolation instead of from a monolith

        and dependencies consistently;
      - Introduced HashiCorp Vagrant workflow to automatically manage Web
        Developer’s PHP setup using VirtualBox and Canonical Ubuntu Linux 16.04
        LTS. By doing so, every developer got the same Web Server setup as in
        production;
      - Introduced automated packaging for every WordPress projects, by
        leveraging Composer’s archive feature. The automated build process would
        first pull all dependencies, run code-quality linters, and if
        successful, create a Zip archive. By merging on master on Bitbucket
        would generate an archive, and the continuous-delivery system make all
        web server nodes to download the archive, extract its contents in a
        folder. Deploying a release would be changing the “live” symbolic to the
        newly extracted package;
      - Introduced advanced Varnish caching with Fastly. Created HashiCorp
        Vagrant workspace network (e.g. one Web Server VM, one Database server,
