Context

Sketchfab is where I did my 3rd year internship (3+ months). My mission was to support the web team during the launch of several major features: mobile app and the new marketplace. I learned a lot about maintaining a product and working among a large team (10+ developers).

Being part of a team

The greatest concepts I learned at Sketchfab is the continuous integration and functional programming wich have really improved my daily workflow. I’m now comfortable with Git and unit tests.
