Html Data Analyzer

!!! This is a testing task to demonstrate the abilities of design and implementation.

Prerequisites

• Visual Studio 2022 with Desktop development
• .NET 6 SDK

Local development

• Open solution in Visual Studio
• Select App as a startup project
• Start application by debugging

Please mind some delay during start. The application might download and prepare the latest version of a headless browser.

CI process

GitHub Actions is set up for CI process. It contains:

• Application building
• Unit/integration tests running
• Built app artifact publishing

Description

This is not a finished application but a proof-of-concept/prototype.

It covers:

• A .NET desktop application with MVVP pattern
• Using a headless browser (as the most reliable way to work with the data as the real user sees it)
• iframe support
• Visibility calculation on the browser side (with some limitations right now)
• Keeping as simple as possible (no need in DI containers, etc. as of now)

Meanwhile there are a log things to improve:

• Cross-platforming
• Consider more modern technology rather than WPF
• Better UX/UI for the application
• Performance improvements/optimizations
• The first run takes time (due to the headless browser downloading)
• Negative scenarios/validation/better error handling
• More sophisticated image/text resolution (including visibility)
• More configuration
• Improve CI/CD approach
• Better code coverage/quality gates
• etc.
