Hi! I’d be glad to take this on. I’ve worked on a few collaborative projects, so I’m comfortable picking up requirements, asking the right questions when needed, and delivering focused, well-scoped solutions.

I’m a full-stack developer, working across both backend and frontend. I mostly use React, TypeScript, Node.js, and Rust, and I enjoy building scalable features and working closely with others to ship solid, reliable code.

@okekefrancis112 has applied to work on this issue as part of the Stellar Wave Program's 1st wave.

I’d like to work on this issue because it addresses a core backend concern around reliability, correctness, and scalability. I enjoy contributing to backend features that improve system behavior, data integrity, and developer experience.

I have strong experience building and maintaining backend systems using NestJS, Node.js, TypeScript, SQL/NoSQL databases, and RESTful APIs. I’ve worked on production features involving data modeling, validation, background processing, performance optimization, and debugging complex edge cases. I’m comfortable reading existing codebases, following established patterns, writing tests where appropriate, and shipping well-documented changes that integrate cleanly with frontend and infrastructure requirements.

Hi , I’d like to contribute to implementing the Achievement Service in the microservices/achievement-service folder.

I have experience working with NestJS microservices and building backend systems for tracking user interactions. For this task, I can:

Initialize the NestJS project and configure Docker

Define Achievement, Progress, and Badge entities

Implement progress tracking and unlock condition evaluation

Set up automatic badge awarding and notifications

Create achievement history APIs and support rarity tiers

Ensure the service runs independently and integrates with other microservices

I’m confident I can complete this feature while following best practices for scalable and maintainable microservices.
