Published: 2021-08-16 23:40:27

Internships are a great way to sharpen one's skill, broaden one's knowledge and gain some experience along the way. As a developer, the majority of the skills required to perform certain tasks while working on a project are usually learnt on the job. A certain amount of conditioning is required to help one move from a beginner or intermediate level into an advanced one.

Hello there, my name is Edward Osaretin Oboh, I am a Front and Back end web developer and a graduate of Computer Engineering. I heard about HNG Internship powered by the Zuri Team ([https://zuri.team](https://zuri.team)) from a friend while searching for a challenging internship program i could participate in, able to provide the necessary conditioning required to make me a better web developer. From my findings, the HNG Internship does this by simulating a real life working environment where one has to deal with moving deadlines, learning to work with new technologies, solving problems with a considerable number of constraints and also, working in a team.

**Reason For Participation**
The major purpose for signing up for HNGi8 is to firstly, sharpen my skills by performing tasks that would broaden my horizon and expand my creativity, productivity and efficiency as a web developer. Secondly, I hope to get myself acquainted with working in a team of developers, thereby acquiring the necessary communication skills required to properly function as a member and thirdly, to include a proof of my completion of this program in my resume and hopefully land a job. I sincerely hope to complete all stages by the end of eight weeks.

**Technology Stack**
My primary language is JavaScript and my stack is the MERN (MongoDB - Express - React - Node.Js) stack. Secondarily, I am proficient with Python. Using either Flask or Django (two of the most used Python web frameworks), I write backend web applications and REST APIs. Apart from MongoDB, I have also made use of PostgresQL and MySQL databases.

Below are links to the various tutorials as required for the completion of this task
