API Integrations

<aside> 🚧 See the guide for more info on what to document here.

1. What Feature(s) is/are this API connected to?
   • Onboarding
     • Okta
       • third party API to verify user is a Lambda Student (stretch) talk to ryan hamblin about this
       • third party API to grab list of job titles (stretch)
2. What will this API integration accomplish in the feature(s) to which it’s connected?
   • handle Oauth token creation and deletion - authentication
3. What alternatives did you consider?
   • Due to Engineering Standards we chose Okta.
4. Why did you decide on this solution? (what are the advantages?)
   • Personalized User Experience: It provides ease of use for end-users to access applications, and is fully customizable.
   • Adaptive Authentication: Protect user access with two-factor authentication for all SSO customers via Okta Verify OTP. Okta is an internal resource all Lambda School students have access to.
     • https://stackshare.io/okta
     • https://gca.net/software/web-access-management/okta-sso/
5. What potential challenges can you foresee?
   • Third party APIs can't be fully reliable. They could theoretically change endpoints or names for data, which we would then have to update on our end as well.
   • Nobody on the team has experience setting up Okta, which introduces a learning curve.

Front-end

<aside> 🚧 See the guide for more info on this section.

</aside>

1. What Framework are you using for your FE? (React, React Native, Angular, Vue, etc...)

   • React
     • Redux

2. What are other frameworks you would like to consider?

   • React Native or progressive web apps (was recommended by SL) https://web.dev/tags/progressive-web-apps/

3. Why did you decide on this framework over the alternatives (what are the advantages?)

   • React over native because build responsive web only, flexibility in building blocks, quick, efficient, large community support. React has virtual DOM where angular does not. Can easily implement React-Native at a later point in development.
   • Single Page Application, JSX

4. What potential challenges can you foresee using this framework?

   • State management
   • Implementing new UI libraries

5. Where to deploy front end?

   • Heroku
