• Implement front-end best practices for performance optimization (e.g. lazy loading, code splitting); ensure secure communications between front-end and back-end services.
• Use GIT for version control; manage codebases and branching strategies.
• Use front-end testing frameworks/tools to create unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end tests to ensure code stability and high-quality output.
