Develop, test, and deploy applications

What this bullet means

The employer wants a junior developer who can help build real features, verify that they work, and understand how finished code reaches a live environment.

Sample app idea

Release Readiness Tracker for planning small features, test checks, deployment status, and release notes.

Main build outline

1. Create a .NET 10 Blazor Server app with feature, test, and deployment checklist records.
2. Add status fields for planned, in development, testing, ready to deploy, and deployed.
3. Build validation so every release has a summary, test result, and deployment note.
4. Add a simple release detail page that shows the work from feature idea to deployment.
5. Document the local setup and deployment checklist in the README.

Portfolio proof

• Screenshot of the release readiness dashboard.
• README deployment checklist.
• Commit showing a feature moving from build to test to deploy.

Minimal documentation

• README with the business problem, screenshots, setup notes, and technology stack.
• One requirements note that maps the job bullet to the sample feature.
• One test plan note with happy path, validation, and edge case checks.
• One honest portfolio note that says this is self-directed practice, not employer work.

Modern .NET stack

• Blazor Server or ASP.NET Core Razor Pages.
• C# services with validation and dependency injection.
• SQL Server locally, then SmarterASP SQL Server or Azure SQL.
• Optional Azure App Service, GitHub Actions, Docker, and AI helper feature.
