I created shared libraries to promote code reuse and improve application structure. The use of NgRx allowed for the refactoring of business logic, while signals were integrated to manage templates in zoneless mode.I also introduced patterns and best practices at all levels of the application, contributing to improved code maintainability and readability. Unit, integration, and end-to-end tests were implemented, using Jest and Cypress to ensure code quality.Finally, I automated tasks with Husky for pre-commit and pre-push hooks, optimizing the workflow. I also took charge of upskilling junior developers, guiding them in adopting these new practices.
