A hiring project

I caught word that some company was hiring devs, so I decided to take the bait. I answered the first couple of riddles that ended up in a text with the requirements about a hiring project.

I'll document the steps and decisions I made until the project was finished.

The stack

After evaluating the trends I decided to use the following:

Backend: Django on AWS Lambda + API Gateway (Nice guide about how to do this with Zappa)
- Docker as Postgresql database (only on my dev machine).
- Django's test runner for tests Frontend: Vue.JS served from S3

Setup environment

Create a virtualenv
Create the project directory and then git init it.
Create backend and frontend directores. The django code goes to backend, and the vuej.js thingy goes to frontend.
Save the requirements.txt file for the frontend according to (the guide and then pip install the requirements.
